Now Normal Chronicles or: Hotter Than Wham!

KISS, Music, Video, Wham!

Salutations™!!

Today is the 36th anniversary of Wham!’s Make It Big album and it’s hard to pass that one up, but because I talked about the death of Tony Lewis yesterday, I missed KISS’s sophomore effort, Hotter Than Hell celebrating it’s 46th anniversary. The overall mix of this album is like it’s done in a tank or a large bathroom. But, I think that adds to the charm and certainly makes it sound mean. This song is the first KISS song Heavens Sake did on stage. It’s a favorite of mine and I think it is a great opening track. You can hear me and Kousin Gary debate that on the fifth episode of Asylum: Tales from the Devereaux Diaries podcast here. But, instead of finding some lame cover, I decided to go original, kind of. This is KISS in soundcheck and I think it’s cool to see the “behind the scenes” footage. Enjoy!

Until tomorrow, same blog channel…
Scorp out!

“Lady, you know I heard the neighbors say, baby, you might be leavin’ me today. Oh yeah, someone’s come along and shared your time. Don’t care, no I don’t, no but you can’t be his and still be mine, so… Ooh, got to choose, who’s your baby?” – “Got to Choose” (Stanley)

Salutations™!!

I apologize for all the videos but this week has been slammed busy and I’ve not had time to do much as far as writing goes. But, today is the 35th anniversary of Make It Big by Wham! It was the second album by George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley but it was the first to make an impact from them and it really launched Michael as a musical superstar. I never miss an opportunity to play Postmodern Jukebox, so enjoy!

 

Until tomorrow, same blog channel…
Scorp out!

When I Was Fourteen or: Life’s Definition?

George Michael, Wham!

Salutations™!!

There’s a meme that I responded to today (two actually) that was “I’ve just read that apparently the song that was number 1 on your 14th birthday defines your life.” The other was what song was number 1 on the day you were born? Well, the song that was number 1 when I was born was “I’ll Be There” by The Jackson 5. And this… this was the number 1 when I turned 14. Enjoy!

Until tomorrow, same blog channel…
Scorp out!

“You put the boom boom into my heart. You send my soul sky high when your lovin’ starts. Jitterbug into my brain goes bang bang bang till my feet do the same. But something’s bugging me. Something ain’t right. My best friend told me where you were last night. Left me sleeping in my bed. I was dreaming but I should’ve been with you instead.” – “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” (Michael)
