speaking of PIL (i love rise; i remember beavis and butthead reviewing that one ;0) one that came a bit too late to make it into a john hughs soundtrack, but it was almost custom-built for that. super-eighties sounding!
heh okay, while i'm piling on, how about bon jovi - did you know his first gig was on the infamous "star wars holiday album"? not too distantly/yet entirely unrelated cousin of the "star wars holiday TV special" that is so especially infamous itself... this stocking-stuffer atrocity was maybe a...
that oran "juice" tune reminded me of eddie murphy's "party all the time" - lol, consider this punishment! ;)
you just have to love/hate on that video silliness - like eddie just showed up at the studio, music's already rolling and rick's in the control booth, then rick gets just sooo into...
weekly?? cool!! :) i'm all for it, but if it still gets to be too much a grind, try every two-three weeks maybe... just sayin', don't hurt yourself over it!
i know anyone making the "lights gamera action" joke must already know this segment, but for those of you who don't - check out this mst3k...
;0 i imagine they have some of this covered on wikipedia, but max headroom was actually an actor (matt frewer of many, many other roles you might know) made up a bit, put in some almost-albino-blue contact lenses, put into a plastic tux-top and a sweet rolling office chair, and cammed in front...
ok, if you need a good way to "kill off" the eighties here, then try billy joel's "second wind!" it's -TERRRRRRIBLE-... but the "plus" is that it features MYTHBUSTER'S ADAM SAVAGE!! yes, back when he was a wee lad - well a teenaged geek-in-the-makin' ;) - he was got a role as the "drowning kid"...
hehe! max headroom -was- disturbing, intentionally so... but if you thought -that- was disturbing?????
check -this- out... a genuine live pirate-TV incident with someone impersonating max headroom.... (sorry, not a genuine music vid, but just had to add it ;)
and-a onnnnne more, then i'll call it "the night"... :)
not a top-40 vid, but a nice movie music vid... :) personally i'd love to see more bits from movies! musicals with some crazy musical numbers...
p.s. trace b. from mst3k is supposed to be guest-ing on svenghoolie tonight!
p.p.s. - oh...
:) one more, re: the fab thunderbirds vid earlier - i remember that one from back then; lol they didn't look -that- angry! ;) probably enough extras and girlfriends dancing around to keep them happy (the redhead in the pink shortshorts musta been a gf, lol - BON-us points for her! ;)... they...
and that level 42 vid - heh you're dredging deep into some old memories there! :) i didn't remember that one till the vid played the first thirty secs or so, then thought "oh yeah, i know i saw this one back around then"...
sorry for the evil vevo again, but here's one i love from that era...
(re: the "go **** yourself with the atom bomb" recording) lol! that is pretty awesome! i am a fugs-illiterate, though i know of how well respected they are in the music scene (like they know anything! ;0) - i should tune into them soon when i go diving back into dk-era stuff...
(re: van...
and hafta include "it's my life" from talk talk also... just one of the best songs, and best vids ever (even for being on the cheap! it's brilliant...)
it's getting all like "supplemental donnie darko" soundtrack in here! ;0 now i hafta post some "talk talk" - seems like a band i should have everything of, though most of the kids these days might only know 'em from one of the GTA soundtracks...
oiks, don't get me started on the eighties! ;0 "art of noise" is a favorite, but if you get any of them, i highly recommend "in no sense nonsense" first - really polished and doesn't age as much as their other stuff (although one has to sort of ignore their "dragnet" movie theme included on the...
maybe that other alec empire record was of his Atari Teenage Riot stuff? -that- shiz is very hardcore, definitely -not- "easy-listening" music! i actually was into ATR first, back in my "i'm so goth" days lol... then saw that clip on AMP and it blew my mind that he could also make such sweet...
OHHHH YAYYYY, finally found something buried in my brain (one from the mid-ninties mtv "AMP" era) - alec empire's "low on ice"... a real "drone" of a dub-bass track... always liked this one.
here's another favorite of mine in the world-beat vein - talvin singh; a nice remix of something off of his "O.K." disc i'd never heard before... :)
p.s. i sooooo wish mtv still was airing AMP - best reason still currently for that network to bother existing! ;0
