HossC Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 A 1981 hit for the Scottish one-hit-wonder aka. Mary Sandeman. The video is from the UK music show Top of the Pops, and features their in-house dancers Legs & Co. We did 'manly' songs a couple of months back - does anyone fancy carrying on the 'boyish' theme?.

HossC Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Well Capt., would you call these three legends?.Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy - The Andrews SistersIt was only when I was listening to this earlier that I realised it was source for the sample used in - we live and learn.

They earned their place in history especially during the WWII era. Now here is one from a real cool Cat that brings back the swing/big band sound.

HossC Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Seeing as the 'Boyish' theme didn't work out, I'll continue with another legend . This song may be familiar from its appearance in The Blues Brothers, I think in the scene when they're heading to Bob's Country Bunker (where they have both kinds of music!). Sadly, this song and John Lee Hooker's other track from the movie ('Boom, Boom') failed to make it on to the soundtrack CD. Luckily I have them on other albums.

Capt_Redneck Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) Great song about current state of country music artists and songs. I love songs that speak their mind.

Garrett Duke Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Love this song...as I do with most of McGraw's music. In fact, am excited about his new CD coming out this Tuesday! The CD this song came on was the very first CD I owned...given to me by my sister! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meadowmufn Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Doh! I missed the whole "boogie" theme. I woulda posted Elton's Boogie Pilgrim and KC & the Sunshine Band's .Instead, I'll have to settle for... . ROFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HossC Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Or is there another way?. I thought of several more songs with 'Way' in the title - anyone fancy more on this theme?.Doh! I missed the whole "boogie" theme. I woulda posted Elton's Boogie Pilgrim and KC & the Sunshine Band's I had a couple of 'Boogie' songs left - maybe we'll get back to them.

Capt_Redneck Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 How about a classic from a band that epitomized the 80s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HossC Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 This band also did quite well in the '80s:One Way or Another - BlondieThis song is actually from their most successful album 'Parallel Lines' which came out in 1978. The fact that I remember 1978 may go some way to answering Val Strate's current question: "Why do I feel old....?" . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Another one that started the 80s especially the 1980 tour and film in 1982 but came out in 79 This is the video from the movie with "Happiest Days Of Our Lives" segueing into the song. That is way most radio stations play the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HossC Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Songs with 'Another' in their title must've been popular in the late '70s - here another one : This is the video from the movie with "Happiest Days Of Our Lives" segueing into the song. That is way most radio stations play the song.I still remember the video that contained the Gerald Scarfe cartoons (marching hammers etc.) - that's the version that was shown on TV when it topped the UK charts in 1979: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HossC Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Sticking with the '80s: The strange scene at the beginning of the video was filmed in Camden Parkway, North London. Despite the video being nearly 30 years old, some of the stores are still recognizable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HossC Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 We seem to be cutting a word off the title each time - if anyone knows a song called 'Day' it belongs in 'One Word Song Titles' . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 I will add a word back to the title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
