well in 10 years time it will probs seems a better buy than that Iglu & Hartly album you also want :lol:

then again they could go further back into the history of eurodisco lord alexander bard...this could do with a cover... QG0vIiwWGGo Army of Lovers - Obsession

and if it was by Iglu & Hartly.... :lol: g1Cf0VvBqR0 Iglu & Hartly UculXjdcSYs Crazy Town page 48 of this weeks NME - Iglu & Hartly gets 2/10 page 45 of this weeks NME - McFly gets 5/10...and yes Iglu & Hartly doexhume the corpse of early '00s clowns crazy town....stick with McFly...

wouldnt it be forth album??? there was a third album but wasnt released at the time and probs will end up on lost tunes

No contest really out of that lot...as s club were the best...(however the 7 weren't the only great s clubbers as the 8 did have the turtle-tastic brady bunch fabulous Automatic High) SepI7Ym2gwU

http://www.halifaxnewsnet.ca/photos/TheDailyNews/stories/Heigl1.jpg 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!!!! _f8Sser_DJU 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) nPeGz25zydQ 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.... cW7n1cNwVWA 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.... IUBqzChZ0aE Nick Heyward-He Doesn´t Love You Like I Do... ...this is i guess more somewhere between andy partridge and elvis costello x3WVB3oeTM8 Nick Heyward-London fQvfb16PEYo 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....

i suppose in this case it could be said that there are more important people to have died this week....* Norman Whitfield - Guardian Obit He co-wrote and produced some of Motown's greatest hits by Dave Laing The Guardian, Friday September 19 2008 The success of the Motown "hit factory", founded in the 1960s by Berry Gordy, was built on the creative contributions of a large team of songwriters, musicians and producers - of which Norman Whitfield, who has died aged 67 of complications associated with diabetes, was arguably among the half-dozen most vital members. He co-wrote such classics as I Heard It Through the Grapevine, War, and Papa Was a Rollin' Stone, and among those whose records he produced were Gladys Knight, Marvin Gaye and the Temptations. Whitfield was born in Harlem, where his main achievement was to become a skilled pool player. He told later interviewers that his family had settled in Detroit after their car broke down there while returning from an aunt's funeral in California. After high school, he exchanged pool for music and produced records for the small Thelma Records label, including one by Richard Street, a future member of the Temptations. He also hung around the Motown studios, observing the production process until Gordy was persuaded to give him a job. A former car worker, Gordy borrowed the idea of a quality control department from the automobile industry, and in 1961 Whitfield became its first head. He was paid $15 a week to lend a critical ear to new recordings by Motown staff, a job he said "consisted of being totally honest about what records you were listening to". He graded the tracks for Gordy's monthly staff meeting, where decisions were made on which should be released. Soon dissatisfied with quality control, Whitfield fought to be allowed to create records himself. This involved competing with such established figures as Smokey Robinson, but he got his first opportunities in 1964 with lesser Motown groups, co-writing and producing Needle in a Haystack by the Velvelettes and Too Many Fish in the Sea by the Marvelettes. These records brought him the chance to work with the Temptations, already one of Motown's elite groups. After one of Robinson's productions flopped, Whitfield took over for Ain't Too Proud to Beg, a No 1 R&B hit in 1966 that was later recorded by the Rolling Stones. For the next couple of years, he and Robinson shared production duties until Whitfield became the Temptations' sole producer in 1968. This heralded a six-year run of scintillating records with the group, many written with Barrett Strong, whose 1960 hit Money was covered by the Beatles in 1963. Strong and Whitfield skilfully merged newer soul and psychedelic influences with Motown's traditional instrumental and vocal strengths. Although Whitfield had his overall concept of each song, it would be created as a studio recording through controlled experimentation and improvisation by the musicians under the producer's guidance. "It took a lot of research and I really consider myself somewhat of a perfectionist," he told writer Nelson George. "I don't like to speculate and I don't like to take chances with my guys." A typical example of Whitfield's Motown-soul approach was I Wish It Would Rain, a 1968 Temptations hit, which found the group's Jimmy Ruffin emoting like a southern soul virtuoso with seagull and thunderstorm sound effects added by Whitfield. But the greatest of Whitfield and Strong's songs was undoubtedly I Heard It Through the Grapevine, first released by Gladys Knight and the Pips in a tambourine-driven version in 1967 and recreated in equally dynamic versions in 1968 with Marvin Gaye and the Temptations. The psychedelic Cloud Nine in 1968 (Motown's first Grammy-winning record) was in many ways a homage to Sly Stone, who Whitfield said showed him that record production was "the science of sound". This was followed by Psychedelic Shack and Ball of Confusion (both 1970) and Papa Was a Rollin' Stone (1972). The lyrics of these songs concerned social and political issues of the day, though not always so coherently as War, the Whitfield-Strong protest anthem memorably sung with strategic grunts by Edwin Starr in 1970. By the mid-1970s, Motown had moved its operations to California and many of its leading figures had left. In 1974, Whitfield joined the exodus after Warner Bros offered to finance his own record label. He took with him his last Motown "acid-soul" group, the Undisputed Truth, but the Whitfield label initially yielded few hits. His greatest post-Motown success came when he was asked to create the soundtrack for the 1976 film Car Wash. He wrote the lyrics of the disco-styled title song on a Kentucky Fried Chicken wrapper after watching a basketball game and used Rose Royce, a group of former Motown singers and musicians, to perform it. Both song and film were massive hits, and Whitfield produced several more hits for the group. In the 1980s, he went into semi-retirement, occasionally appearing at music industry functions. He returned to the spotlight in 2005 when he pleaded guilty to tax evasion charges. The case revealed that even in the late 1990s he had been earning more than $500,000 a year from royalties as his songs were reissued, re-recorded and used in more than 50 film soundtracks. He was sentenced to six months in prison and fined $25,000, but was spared jail in favour of home detention on account of his failing health. · Norman Jesse Whitfield, songwriter and record producer, born May 12 1941; died September 16 2008

a classic group of furry animals on Wimbledon common??? so is that 'Garfunkel, Essex and melua' then :lol: :lol: :rofl:

dont know that or il adore (unless its a retitled remake of Ava Adore by The Smashing Pumpkins :lol: ) but will have to find it some other time as me dad's lost my headphones and i dont think my brother would be too pleased if i went up in his room and took his very expensive ones :lol: - dont think boy george would be worth that hassle :lol:

well as the forum is full of popular mor dullards like daniel powter and dido here's some cheese.... Deuce - Call It Love Deuce - I Need You

well some reviews have used it conjunction with the electropop word - so does that mean it should join the ting tings in pop..(do the ting tings sound so much like new order?!?! :lol:) btw was in the car the other day and my brother had on an old dance compilation...and JX came on...which is the sounds of cheesy mid 90s europop as much as duece now... 57RsgqWw5W4 JX - There's Nothing I Won't Do -MUSKbE01oQ Deuce - Call It Love A26_oA9Mm6A Deuce - I Need You

Today on Pete Waterman & Neil Fox's Hits of the year countdown is 1995...so i guess maybe a topic with like the theme of 1995 could be a good idea....start off here's a couple videos that probably wouldnt have featured on the hits this morning....i wonder if Pete and Foxy would give them the thumbs up or thumb down for these tracks... 87UgNaJGyLc Sparks - "When I Kiss You (I Hear Charlie Parker Playing)" Pvatys8vP3s Sparks When Do I Get to Sing My Way? (tho actually a re-issue from 94) fW6b244fsUA Human League - Filling Up With Heaven so thumbs up or thunmbs down???

is this because the ting tings are a successful act...so what you are realy saying is 'dont compare good (which equals cult, not mass market, only minorly successful) with #1 recording artists (which is always bad)

Hello...cool that there might be some scope for some hindi language films on the site...tho i havent seen this one yet...on the other hand have seen Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd which i think is from the same production team http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/7b/Honeymoontravels.jpg

like when i saw bratz i ended up having the giggles really bad...kinda at the specticle of awfulness that greated me on screen - not actually laughing at the part everyone else was laughing at - think i was caught up in the moment...and perhaps rather crying with laughter...laughing with embarrisment as i was with my bro, who had taken his kid to see it....

Morrison's popcorn is awful though! Butterkist is where it's at lol! I don't really buy popcorn anywhere other than Cineworld, it's amazing. would be funny if you could smuggle in a microwave :lol: :lol: ...got Aldi popcorn a couple of times but if you stick it in your rucksack there's no room for any records and its always seems to be randomly 'maple sirup flavored' :lol: ...not had popcorn in a while as i find cineworld's awful, i normally go for an ice-cream and if i go with anyone else from my family they normally buy candyking or m&ms... its done by direct debit..but you have to sign up for a year...so the best thing to do is just get another account for your direct debit and remember to put in that £12 in the account every month to cover the card..(it more in central london...but i guess it still work out as 2 films a month...btw Scott do you still pay more for all the central London cineworld now your nearest ones are i guess wood green and enfield???)

motown is alright...even tho some of the early motown-pop stuff could be just seen as black american cheesy pop :lol: in regard to motown & its almost henry ford production line mentality...the detroit production line era (backed by people like The Funk Brothers) is the kinda idea people most associate with the genre of motown (you know when you see it written on pub a-boards advertising friday night discos when you walk past) i guess even more than the political and psych-funk stuff that came out afterwards and when the firm moved to LA and released more records with a social conscious.... however how good records those were i guess motown is also responsible for some $h!te... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/b/b1/StevieWonderIJustCalledToSayILoveYou7InchFrenchSingleCover.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/a/a6/Loves_Alright.jpg i bought my dad a total motown collection not so long ago...and he thought it was rubbish and gave it back to me as it was full of really bad slow jamz from the mid 1980s (like the ones you get on timelife telelshopping) and i guess all the decent tracks from earlier i guess he had already... dont know where that comp has got to but i've got motown chartbusters 10 here but those tracks seem mostly to be from the late 70s...and its got Love Hangover and Frankie Valli's The Night on it...so that good... yeah a punk..how it ruined music could be good - esp from a when indie goesd mainstream perspective..tho maybe it was britpop that could be seen to having killed indie

i would say they sound like a synthpop version of Red Light Company..or somewhere between Red Light Company and the flaming lips...i dont mind 'In this City' until the rap comes in - which is terrible...but then again if they are supposed to sound like some dreadful synthpop band from the 1980s i guess this is very apt as i guess this is what george micheal would do :lol: fR8GQXHkbqI Red Light Company - With Lights Out
