was watching knocked up and at one point you think your gonna get a juno-esque twee-indie-pop classic until the moment is shattered with the lyrics 'Where does it go from here? Is it down to the lake I fear? Ay ah ah ah ah ah Ay ah ah ah ah ah' :puke2: :puke2: - how can anyone listen to those lines??? its so bad that even scouting for girls would reject them!!!!

Love Plus One

the album pelican west was free with the daily mail this week - and i havent listed to it apart from the first 2 songs - the one off knocked up and this one which sounds like a worse version of ABC - Tears Are Not Enough (tho i guess both these two probs sound like lite versions of loads of britfunk bands of the time...like a lot of boyband pop in the 90s being waterdown r&b and funk)

Haircut 100 - Favourite Shirts,Boy Meets Girl

didnt feel like venturing further at the time...but then again could say that i was put off by some of the song titles....Lemon Firebrigade, Milk Film, You're My Little Steam Whistle, Calling Captain Autumn, and erm Baked Bean...some of these might be alright if it was some really trippy late 60s or 70s psych - but if they're all attached to some dodgy britfunk...no thanks!!!

(the album cover credits might be more intersting than the album as it states that it was originally an Arista release...'© 1982 BMG Entertainment International UK & Ireland Ltd' though according to wiki BMG didnt exist until 1987!!! at the bottom its © 2008 SONY BMG ENTERTAINMENT (UK) LIMITED....now i got a cheapo woolies 2 entertain/dmg comp of great summer pop songs...that featured the boo radleys wake up boo :cheer: :yahoo: :cheer: :dance: which was licenced thanks to SONY BMG being orig a Creation label recording...Creation also having Nick Heywood at one point (tho if you look in the hit singles book ...his last actual hits were on Epic...a label also owned by Sony Music Entertainment...just think he was probably dropped by all these different labels...and now they are all owned by Sony Music Entertainment...)..however you think why was a valued one time indie record label doing signing Nick Heyward if his most famous records are dodgy britfunk...

thi might be an answer....

Nick Heyward-Kite

this is much better as "former creation records artist nick heyward" trys to be in fellow "former creation records artists" the lilac time...and should be a contender for Knocked Up 3 or Juno 2....

Nick Heyward-He Doesn´t Love You Like I Do..

.
...this is i guess more somewhere between andy partridge and elvis costello

Nick Heyward-London


nick heyward - tell me why

at first this sounds like "former creation records artist nick heyward" is trying to sing like morrissey to a record by the bible/boo hewerdine - it probably would be quite brilliant if the production wasnt so late 80s and american, the chorus wasnt just tell me why repeated and it was done by natalie imbruglia....

Nick Heyward - Kite is a song of godlike genius vastly superior than his fluffy lightweight 1980s material IMHO.

 

He also features on this record and in the video:

 

Edward Ball - Mill Hill Self Hate Club

 

See if you can spot the other famous cameo appearances in this video?

Edward Ball - isnt he from the Television Personalities...they're supposed to be a good cult band..i recently got a few of their singles in a big batch of Domino promos also including Cass McCombs, some more wild beasts singles :cheer: ..which is always a good thing...tho the best of there's still has to be...

 

Wild Beasts - 'Assembly' :cheer: :yahoo: :cheer: :heart:

 

and guess where this is gonna take me......yes thats right...not to Orange Juice or Sparks but to here....

 

Billy MacKenzie - Kites

 

think this a great haunting version of the simon dupree song - the original something being one of those records that on somedays..i dont like it when i hear it and other days it just fits the mood perfectly...(maybe tues and wed after batman :lol: :lol: )

 

simon dupree & the big sound - Kites

 

and i believe we're back to the start of this comment...with records called kite(s) :lol:

i agree, 'kite' was a very good track, but his 80's material was as it was...pop.
