Delta to be lumped with Brian's kids?
Maybe there are legal reasons for Delta not releasing anything in the UK. Think about it logically, her last single hit number 3. Why wouldn't SonyBMG want to put out more singles. The Brian excuse is getting old now and I'm thinking conspiracy. I reckon the guy we should be blaming is Gary Barlow. Sony so was desperate to release Throw it Away[ a Gary Barlow composition] as a single they tried twice. Later A LittleToo Late[ another Gary Barlow co-write] was touted as a UK single and where did Delta turn up last week.....The same hotel in Wales as the Take That members. There is definately something fishy here.

New layout on the Photo Album
The only HQ one I've seen anywhere was on Brian's site and it was a back view. Most of the forum pix were either scan from mags, watermarked or tiny.

Angela Via performing I Don't Care
The Angela Via version was actually released years before Delta's. It was such a flop Atlantic pulled her album. The last I heard she been dropped by her label for refusing to lose weight for a video[a duet with a boy band member]

Scott Walker and the Walker Brothers
I'll buy it 'cause I've got everything else. But 'Tilt' was pretty much unlistenable.

Serge Gainsbourg
I :heart: Serge. At first I just liked his early pop stuff, 'Ford Mustang' 'Bonnie& Clyde' etc, then I got into his jazzier earlier stuff. The material he wrote for other artists, France Gall, Brigitte Bardot etc is amazing- pop at it's best. ' Historie de Melody Nelson' is one of the greatest albums ever, but that's only the tip of the iceberg. Check out Jane Birkin's 'Doh Dah Dah' album, Bambou's 'Made in China' or France Gall's '1968' [surely the main influence on Kylie's 'Impossible Princess']. They all rock. And Serge was funny too. check him out with Whitney Houston on 'You Tube'. One of the greats.

Allo Allo
The Pet Shop Boys covered it on a b-side [i Don't know what you want but I can't give it any more]. Australian porn actress Abigail recorded an unlistenable version which charted down under.Kylie did a mash-up version with 'Breathe' from 'Impossible Princess' it's on her 'money can't buy DVD.

any Frankie Howard fans out there?
Ther's a French version of 'Up Je' taime' called 'Ca' byBourvil & Jacqueline Maillan. He was a caberet singer in his 80's and she was a bimbo. It's funnier than the original and the flip side is another Gainsbourg song 'Pauvre Lola' with all this insane laughing throughout the whole song. CLASSIC!!!! Also try 'Disco Je'Taime' by Donna Summer it's on the 'Thank God It's Friday soundtrack and takes up all of side six :dance: :dance: :dance:

Allo Allo
Je'taime is retitled ' I love you[me neither] and it's by Catpower & Karen Elson. Check out the version by Nick Cave and Anita Lane retitled 'I love You[Nor do I] it's on Mick Harvey's Gainsbourg tribute ' Pink Elephants' and there's a different version on the flip of Anita's 'The World is a Girl'.
-
Allo Allo
I've got a single by Gordon Kaye and Vicki Michelle [Rene and Yvette] called Je'taime [allo allo]. It's a cover of the Serge Gainsbourg song and it's EVEN WORSE than Frankie Howards version. Every sit-com duo must have covered this track. <_<

The Ultimate Thread Of Official Forum Bitching
Try collecting French singer Mylene Farmer. Six studio albums in twenty two years, six years between the last two and none released outside France. Her forums are total bitch sessions.

any Frankie Howard fans out there?
I've got his single 'Up Je'taime' it's a terrible cover of the Serge Gainsbourg track but with June Whitfield replacing Jane Birkin. TRAGIC!!!!

80's bands that deserved more success
Green was on Kylie's Body Language they do a duet on 'Somedays' it's awesome the voices really blend together well. 'I Could Be Happy' 12" version by Altered Images was a huge hit in Australia. Top 5 for WEEKS!

The Ultimate Thread Of Official Forum Bitching
Mostly it's thread after thread of the same topic, maybe with one word altered from the thread above it. Yesterday at least the moderators stopped the separate 'Delta OFFICIALLY engaged' threads. So they're possibley getting better. Plus there's one forumer, whose user name I won't mention, who goes through every thread in every section and writes 'Thx' and THAT counts as a post!!!!

80's bands that deserved more success
Altered Images were a great band. Their third album 'Bite' is a classic. Produced by Tony Visconti and Mike Chapman it's the best alum Bowie and Blondie never made!!! The singles were 'Don't talk to me about love', 'Love to stay','Change of heart' and 'Bring me closer' all chart-making classics. Lead singer Clare Grogan went on to star in the classic 'Father Ted' episode where she plays a Sinead O'Connor type diva.
