As for the Lemon Trees they were great (I saw them support Crowded House & have their album Open Book) formed by former World Party member Guy Chambers they wrote some fantastic tunes but lack a charismatic lyricist & frontman which is exactly what Guy Chambers found with some former member of a 1990s boyband. as the bloke from OMC (thats Pauly Fuemana from the Otara Millionaires Club not OMD...'the primark Joy Division') would say How Bizarre.... The Lemon Trees..is it like totally random thought then or do you know both the Lemon Trees and Kinky Machine were signed to Oxygen Records..and is that what has linked in your mind...? and yeah not found anything by the Lemon Trees either so cant comment - however youtube has got stuff like this: 5X6wJ8bILE8 waterboys - trumpets vL5L5Y61Jyk A Girl Called Johnny - The Waterboys* and lots of stuff like this: 2RPB3_AQPnQ The Devils - Aztec Moon iDZCRZGsCHs Father Mother Wife & Child (The Lilac Time-Paradise Circus)* EKt9-SWKDvg robbie williams - radio *another random link - actually bought these albums at the same time in the £1 sale the other week!!!

One By One wasn't that from that album done by Cher where she would only sing songs recorded by blokes...(tho i was also reading the article on Robert hazard in the Guide the other day and it said that Cyndi Lauper had it in her contract that she would only sing songs by male autuers such as Jules Shear - of... Whispering Your Name - Alison Moyet fame)...like It's a Man's Man's Man's World (tho pity there wasnt a follow up where she could have done neneh cherry re-imaging woman instead) CwY_9KUVoVk Whispering Your Name - Alison Moyet z0W212af1uk neneh cherry - woman and Cher did Walking In Memphis...as performed here in a loving version by the one and only.... KnqahPN8534 :cheer: SCOOTER - I'm Raving I'm Raving :cheer: gxUDXRAdU8U Shut Up And Dance feat. Peter Bouncer - Raving, I'm Raving as well as a 'reading' of The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore...tho why would anyone want any other version than the one by The Walker Brothers i dont know YJ8XLglx8HQ was wondering if youtube would have the original version of the song on the site - it doesnt but its got theese instead by the 'Poundland Oasis'... 00iXpm6Ihng The real people Window pane 4MT50PBHgRw The Real People - I Can't Wait ]s_Kg2CQ3HG4 The Real People-Waiting for the World CtaiL2Z-hiE Nylon "Losing A Friend" (also a The Real People song) 9vElfuF7LXo Nylon 'Closer' (also a The Real People song) as for sonny and cher - there's a dvd box set of the sonny and cher show in the store...which if it gets any cheaper i might get as i think it might be cheesy fun - tho maybe i should watch Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In first

tho i bet you could meet in the middle with love for either Susan Cadogan, Musical Youth or Nik Kershaw then (nope! no Gigi D'Agostino this time bla bla bla :lol: :lol:). and anyway i bet there were much worse non-pop worthy records released in that megasuccessful saw chart hit era..look here's one now...and its fricking awful :lol: FFnJmz5pWc4 Simple Minds - Mandela Day however talking about simple minds...here's propaganda again and dont you think this first record is almost like proto-scarlet??? I1qb8McqaFo Propaganda - Heaven give me words W7L2V_NrJHc Propaganda - Only one word c7dyXfHcYw8 Scarlet - Independent Love Song

Yeah tho it was not surprising - not shocked tbh...at least there will be a nice large obit to read on Monday

not at the moment - just singles/tracks - but then again will be ages till i get round to getting it as if got about a zillion other albums from the sale (in addition to all the 100 hits ones) to get thru first....a backlog till about 2015 :lol:

yeah its quite bizarre for this to listed in pop with all the saturdays threads...however maybe there's a discussion to be had here about how much the beatles could be seen to be a 'manufactured' merseybeat pop band - not manufactured in the pop idol way but more 'manufactured' as in refined by Brian Epstein from the raw materials, that raw lump that had been in Hamburg and at the Cavern Club (btw is it true that Erics is the where the Cavern Club is today and the Cavern Club is actually should be on the other side of the street) http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/fb/Promo_photo_of_Epstein.jpg Brian Epstein - the Louis Walsh of his day?!?!?

Yeah Sugababes newbie was disappointing on first listen - though it was gonna amaze totally - but listening to it they havent really improved on the original track

tho some might say...if you are able to dance to them - they are dance songs :lol: but if they are from like 25 years ago - wont there be like some singles you wouldnt be able to get the rights too now..tho dont know everything might be in the back cat of emi records now...in that case it would be easy...but if there was something on a tiny dance label i guess like records by the KLF if they were ever on Now - dont think they would be able to get the rights...but then again could just replace the track with something by scooter - dont think anyone would notice :lol:

and electro bang wagon that sounds like an ethical porn van to me :lol: :lol: as for Britney - sounds like it will be very irretating after the 3rd play on the radio - even worse than scouting for girls...much prefer the old Cherion-funk sound of the maratone produced hits... fAY_HaH3B9o Britney Spears - Overprotected

If Ladyhawke wins this round i guess the way its going the next Indie/Rock/Alternative soundclash will also feature Banannanarama (thats 80s pop act Banannanarama with 80s pop act Ladyhawke and not Jagjagjagjaguwajaguwar Jagjaguwar records Ladyhawk and Dananananaykroyd...tho that pairing might make some ultra indie types do a little sex wee)

What does everyone think of InnerPartySystem (except for the fact that it would be better if the name was InnerPartyDanceSystem as the potential for being mistaken for the latest AATW act would be greater and funnier) 9WolkQvHNps Q1GIT44jjkE ahIFgI083Lw

Mercury Rev are cool...but don't know whether many people will be that bothered with them now...

Gay Bar was great as well - and didnt mind Dance Commander either...tho the rest of the album was a bit dodgy and after that..they became quite pointless..

but the point is not just a list of films that are adapted from stage plays...more about films thats are too much like stage plays that they could be seen to be totally redundant (i suppose the Sleuth remake counts as this) and Glengarry Glen Ross is supposed to be a good film isnt it.

Talking about under-rated acts and Silver Sun another thread...reminding me about another great forgotten (and quite unlucky)band of the time Rialto...who did great Royal Cinematic slightly-franco britpop...all hail that earl of pop Louis Eliot.... http://media.virginmega.fr/Covers/Zoom/WMI/706301974568.jpg 9eyN2I-TlyA Rialto - Monday Morning 5.19 pAgw3WBcEGY Rialto - Untouchable kCIlvR6_Rls Rialto - When We're Together XNl8G5tv-DE Kinky Machine - Supernatural Giver SUT91CBpzuc Kinky Machine - London Crawling http://www.timpalmer.com/album_pics/kinky.gif The Kinky Machine album was produced by a certain Eg White...and bizarrely none of these records sound like Will Young's Changes

and nobody has yet mentioned this under-rated powerpop act being in the chart...and i hope it doesn't take another McFly #1 to make people notice again :lol: nSZdXGLgtR8 Silver Sun - I'll See You Around lW0eMgjXmS0 Silver Sun - Golden Skin FYtbr86cjaM Silver Sun Last Day in comparison to what 1981, 1984, 1985, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1992 :lol: :lol:

but that become a different question...as you could just follow that on with... SASH! With Sabine Ohmes With La Trec With Shannon With Dr Alban With Rodriguez & Peter Faulhammer WithTina Cousins WithInka With Mikio With Boy George With TJ Davis With Stunt :lol:

Tho one of these bands became Rain Tree Crow...the other became Arse Cow $h!t :lol: 2-TGPXF31mg Raintree Crow - Blackwater H8RxNeHKgNU David Sylvian - September x1YkHJJi-tc Sylvian & Sakamoto - Forbidden Colours

Yeah agree with this person totally...and how could you disagree with someone who goes by the name 'pmachinery' with a little picture of propaganda.... :cheer: and actually that is a good point to bring up the sequal to that big Stiff Box compilation that came out...not surprisingly the sequal to the Stiff Records box will be....drumroll please... THE ZTT BOX and even tho its been stated that it will feature Andrew Poppy, Propoganda, FGTH and 808 State...here's hoping All Saints, AdamSki and the frames get a look in as well...tho i guess noones bothered about Seal or Lisa Stansfield turning up tbh :lol: ACY110aNjNM All Saints 1.9.7.5 - Silver Shadow wsZ9zT6-E9o Adamski One Of The People

Galveston....I wonder if he has ever sung this record then oIUPCfIihQ4 Glen Campbell - Galveston PVzEfR6wL70 OMD - Tesla Girls it would be even funnier and ironic if had covered Jimmy Webb's Galveston to a sample of OMD's Tesla Girls (tbh i think it would be very easy to sing Galveston over the top) are you sure this is not just a p***-take (tbh some of this information is funnier than what Chevy Chase has come up with on SNL -Chevy Chase he's the 1970s Will Ferrell - and after seeing Will's last film...think that be true :lol: )

well excepting O'Neal for a moment - if it was a contest between the 1980s and the 1970s with Vandross for the 80s and White for the 70s...think the 1980s would lose...no contest between the two... dont know all of Alexander O'Neal's records..but at least with Fake and Criticize there are a couple of good Jam & Lewis funk-pop songs...however maybe it would be better not to bring up his last album where he covers Take That, Richard Marx and Barry White...as that is just gonna be one of those vomit-awful records aimed at clueless housewives in tesco....tho if you must watch O'Neal do Barry White..here is your chance now (tho obv the videos that follow it are better :lol: ) ogpzwUZBu2o Alexander o'neal on Alan Titchmarsh Show includes cover of Barry White your my first, my last, my everything _Ac_7EmYGXs "Alex is the name i go by!!!" lk7i_EPxTlY Janet Jackson "Rhythm Nation" 5jBwWP0YMws HUMAN LEAGUE - LOVE IS ALL THAT MATTERS

prefer this one...think this is a better record... wMMU9NrDAno Armand van Helden - Koochy

..i wonder if this has got anything to do with the staurdays...however sampling can be a good thing oHLewcdIWlw Pino D'Angio - Ma Quale Idea PZj-5DZn-fs Chic - Soup For One nH_imnEGvMM HERBIE HANCOCK / BRING DOWN THE BIRDS cHITX5H9RNo Isaac Hayes - Ike's Rap II/Help Me Love xF31yIwiLQw William DeVaughn "Be Thankful For What You Got" rW0vzGNTir4 carly simon - why DzYcooaJ2Go Chaka Khan " Fate " ... discovering the originals

think i'd rather search for videos by Bowie, Bolan, Divine, Winehouse and Nomi tbh....or SASH! :lol: ngS8vBmrvUs Sash! feat Boy George - Run

I loved Adelante...'sung' it so much (tho that sung might be nearer beatboxed) and went on about it that it became like my unofficial cachtphrase of the time as i mentioned so much - annoyed my mum by saying it rreally andom, probs bros too :lol: Encore Une Fois brilliant record too - got quite a few SASH! records including S4 tho obv probs best viewed as an album act ngS8vBmrvUs Sash! feat Boy George - Run
