Off Topic Saints Not606 Music Thread

Buster Blood vessel was told that this was being done He watched it and loved it and it had him laughing his head off

 

Dont worry I ain't full on bumpkin just yet..

 

Heard this really funky track on Radio Tres ayer. From the London Afrobeat Collective. Archers may have heard of them doing the rounds in London.

 

Here's a song written by Southamptons Mike Batt

Come on Guys admit it who cried during the film?

 

Never seen it.

 

If you decide to see the original not the re-make

 

Memorable pop band - Dexys Midnight Runners - Geno:

 

I don't tend to post LIVE renditions of music tracks because the extra excitement is more often let down by the lousy under rehearsed playing and poor video/sound. Of course, there are exceptions. Peter Gabriel, who I've considered a total ****ing genius in music, actually equals the original track with a live performance in Modena Italy 1993, imo. He turns an album track into something quietly special. In Your Eyes, from So:

​

Here's the album track:

 

Every time .....

 

Me too

 

Hadn't heard this in years . The Video was nothing like I expected either

 

This is just wrong or you could say GaGa

 

I don't know about anyone else, but I can watch Susanna Hoffs all day long..........

 

I did watch Susanna Hoffs all day long now I have a restraining order

 

such a small difference between people watching and voyeurism

 

Finally, I get around to putting a title to a song I first heard on a distant radio in the 1990s as I was going about my life. It has popped up now and again with its distinctive 1960s sound. I always thought is was an obscure thing fetched out of the archives and re-issued. And it kept popping up just occasionally. Only today I overheard on that distant radio, while I was doing something else. Only this time I made my mind up to track it down. And here it is. A Girl Like You by Edwyn Collins:

​

To me, this absolutely reeks of Phil Spector's Wall of Sound, and I can almost sense 1967-68 in it. Got to admit, I like it a lot.

 

Back in the early 1980s, like a mountain of other LP rock lovers, I bought Toto IV. I'd heard early on that these guys were super professional ex-session players, and you can hear it in every track Toto do. And today, Africa popped up on that distant radio. Not enough time goes by for me to welcome that song back to my ears. It never goes out of fashion, but I never hear Rosanna from the same album. So brilliantly is this single composed, arranged and played, I've found Rick Beato appreciating it too, with one of his What Makes This Song Great videos:

​

And here's that great song itself, Rosanna, from one of the albums that wrote the 1980s:

 

I don't know why but after listening to Toto it reminded me of the time I saw Ringo Starr live at The B. I. C Bournemouth with his AllStarr band and Richard Page was one of the Members and they did these two songs from his group Mr Mister

Sorry second one in next post
