I thought it contained one exemplary song after another (with the exception of "Everyday" and "Agnus Dei"). Heaven Is, Only Tears, Dollar Girl, Christine, etc., etc.


Great tune...remember it well. Although I preferred "Sugar Tax" a bit more, "Liberator" was pretty solid. The latest album bored me to tears, unfortunately.

I love finding something new that I instantly love. Today was the first time I saw/heard this performance. A slow intro, and then it just takes off. Great camera work, too.

I just ordered this album by The Beths.

I didn't think I'd like this band (very silly, gimmicky image), but DAMN! I LOVE THIS SONG!

Human Rocket - DEVO



Funny.... it came out during a time when I was working on a short story, and the music/lyrics of this tune would;ve fit perfectly with the end credits sequence of how I envisioned the story to end... assuming it ever got made into a movie, that is. :)

I really like the original version too, but the added keyboards in the remix are a stroke of genius.

That's a good slow take on the original OMD song. Thanks for posting.

Sugar Tax is also an extraordinary album. Those two together are just pure ear candy, but OMD purists find them too much of a departure from the more-clinical sound of early albums into more mainstream, hooky material.
I haven't listened to an OMD album since 2010's History of Modern, which I also found superb.

Continuing my current theme of favourite songs of bands/musicians, there's Butch Walker's title song from his latest album, Stay Gold:

...And the best song by .38 Special, "I Oughta Let Go", from 1984's Tour de Force. How this groovy tune wasn't a hit is beyond me.


Norm de Plume 08-26-18 11:07 PM

Re: Post a song you like or love.
 
And Eddie Money's "Don't Say No Tonight" from 1999's Ready Eddie:

I'm far from a Ramones fanatic, but I sure do dig what I consider their two best songs, the propulsive "Danny Says" and the ebullient "California Sun":




Norm de Plume 08-26-18 11:24 PM

Re: Post a song you like or love.
 
And for some CanCon, there's The Trews and their great despairing anthem "Hope & Ruin", which I have posted before, but I believe not in this thread.

Two dazzling songs by Chris de Burgh. The heartrending "In the Ghetto" and the majestic "The Hands of Man", which starts slowly but has three increasingly insistent verse starts at 2:00, 3:10, and 4:00. No official video for either.

Another great little tune by Artful Dodger: "Alright" from Babes on Broadway. Probably the band's best song.

"California Nights' by Royal Wood:


Norm de Plume 09-08-18 03:29 PM

Re: Post a song you like or love.
 
Two more OMD songs I really dig. "Secret" from 1985's Crush (I love the 4-chord synth beat that runs through the song), and "One More Time" from last year's The Punishment of Luxury (the only outstanding song off that album, I think):




Perkinsun Dzees 09-28-18 08:56 AM

Re: Post a song you like or love.
 
Didn't really care for this song when I first heard it, but in typical Beach House fashion, it has started to grow on me.
