Discussions about the songs, lyrics, music videos etc of the 70's, 80's and 90's. What was your favourite song? What was the worst song?
What was number 1 in the Charts the day you were born? Not sure look here http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/member/birthdayno1.php Mine was Carl Douglas-Kung fu fighting, on 21st September 1974. :)
The very first song i remember hearing was - My boy lollipop by Millie Small. (1964) I must have been about 3 or 4. I fell in love with little Millie and this song and i would imagine she was singing about me. Its a great song really joyous and happy with a great reggae beat. It wasn't until...
I do. Stepping Out by Joe Jackson. Whenever I hear this song I'm taken back to the 80's and everything about being a child then. I find it strange that one song can evoke such a vast amount of memories and general feelings from that time.
I am trying to frind the lyrics for a singing together school song known as: I have a red sombrero. I have been searching everywhere and can't find them Can anyone help?? Cheers
What cover songs have you heard that you think are better than the original version, and which ones do you find an assault on the eardrums? Best for me has to be :- Mr. Tambourine Man - The Byrds Dear Prudence - Siouxsie and the Banshees UB40 - Red, Red, Wine Worst:- Rolf Harris -...
When you was a child, did you ever completely sing the wrong lyrics to a song but they sounded just like it. (well to you anyway):o I used to love Frankie...Sister sledge and would sing away quite happily :D Only i used to sing: "Oh, how you brought me down - down down. hot dinner was all...
Anybody have 80s or 90s playlists on their mp3/ipod? And if so, what's on it? I've got a 400 track 80s playlist and no matter what else I buy, I always come back to it.
If you could sing and were a famous pop/rock star, which songs or videos can you see yourself doing? I'd quite like to thrash out 'I love rock and roll' by Joan Jet and the Blackhearts, top cover but her video is rubbish. It would be much better with me in it :p
These are(according to wikipedia) the top million sellers of the decade: 1) Do they know its christmas - Band Aid 2) Two Tribes - Frankie goes to hollywood 3) Last christmas/Everything she wants - Wham 4) Dont you want me - Human League 5) Karma Chameleon - Culture Club 6) Careless Whisper...
When you listen to a song i find you don't always listen to the lyrics properly,only when you set about really getting into it to you think to yourself that makes no sense what so ever. Examples of songs that have made me go what on earth include: "I smell like i sound i'm lost and i'm found and...
Dance with my father - Luther Vandross makes me cry! Rose Garden - Lynn Anderson makes me happy - reminds me of being very young and carefree! (I'm sure there are lots more!)
Can anyone help with this one. I remember my dad giving me this old 45' record. The song was called 'A Rose Has To Die'. I am sure the band featured the guy from BBC kids programmes, the guy had a mop of black hair and glasses and played the guitar. Heeeeelp, it's driving me mad. The song...
I know this is a long shot, but this song is well known. I just don't remember any of the lyrics, but it goes like... The male sings most of the song... then in the Chorus, he says something, and a female voice says a couple of words, then he says something else. Then both go Uh uh uh. ...
Mine was Elton John - Wrap her up.....can't stand him now either.
What are your all time WORST songs - you know, the ones you really cannot stand and have to turn the radio off when they come on. My examples are: Wake Me Up Before You Go Go - Wham I Wanna Dance With Somebody - Whintey "pass the rolled up fiver" Houston Angels - Robbie Williams (I...
I'm hoping someone out there may be able to help me! This is a bit of a sinister subject matter but I hope my assurance that I'm not some kind of weirdo with pierced eyeballs doesn't fall on deaf ears! :D At some point in the early to mid 1990s one of the BBC radio stations broadcast a program...
Two haunting songs that come to mind are... "The Bright Elusive Butterfly of Love" writ by Bob Lind and "Johnny Remember Me...." writ I think by Joe Meek Both from the 1960s .. Bob Lind's song is so different and unique... how did he come to write it ? I think he packed in pop...
when it came out im sure i read/heard somewhere that the song contained clues to a real place where the record company had hid a prize and if you deciphered the lyrics and found this place the money was yours i cant find anything on the internet to back up this `memory` tho did this ...
Probably late 70s, i can recall watching a woman doing a version of Imagine on tv. I am pretty sure it was the music guest in the Two Ronnies (in the way Barbra Dickson used to be on), although it could have been a similar style entertainment show. She was blonde i think, a kind of Olivia Newton...
The title of this thread speaks for its self, But it has to be a record that you walked into a store and bought for the first time on your own. Xmas & Birthday presents do not count. Mines are 1st Single - Stand & Deliver - Adam & The Ants ( May 1981) 1st Album - Kings Of the Wild...
