I was thinking, how some comercials seem even better if they have a good song to go along with them. An example of this would be the Ipod commercials. The commercials seem more fun to watch if there is a great song playing in the backround. There have even been some bands I have frantically searched for after seeing a commercial air on tv. My question is, what do you feel is the best use of a s...

If you don't believe me...i will FIGHT you! Not really...but I am a bit drunk, and I just got home from '80's Night' and if this song would have been played the entire evening would have been better!!b

Not only did I experience a New Wave 'phase', but I remember it ever so fondly. Soft Cell's (Marc Almond/David Ball) rather brilliant 1981 12" single Memorabilia (long version) which was coupled with Persuasion. Thanks Wiel! Hat's off to dachmo for initiating New Wave Wednesday, and Misstee for inspiring him to do so! Wiki says: New Wave Music.

Say Hello, Wave Goodbye..Soft Cell were an English synthesizer duo during the early 1980s. They consisted of Marc Almond (vocals) and David Ball (synthesizers). Their lyrics often focused on love and romance as well as the darker side of life, with subjects such as kinky sex, transvestism, drugs and murder. They had a huge world-wide hit in 1981 with a cover version of "Tainted Love".They becam...

The long weekend begins today - and the weather here is crazy - and for some reason it all adds up to some Soft Cell grooving.this album has been a long-time favorite of mine, and while it's not really the kind of music that fits in with a lot of the other music i love and listen to, there seems to have always been a place for Marc Almond in my sonic journeys. This album is just wonderful and d...

Everyone has their own personal genre favorites. I'm not a huge 80s nostalgia buff, but I will drop everything at the drop of a hat if I'm out and they play anything off my all-time favorite synthpop album: Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret by Soft Cell.This whole album is killer. Every single song is a classic. "Tainted Love" is the song everyone in the US knows, but it's actually not my favorite tr...

Tainted Love, written for her by Ed Cobb, was a hit first for Gloria Jones in the sixties, and was clearly a persistent one in some people's minds. She re-recorded it in 1975 for her EMI album Vixen, co-produced with her husband Marc Bolan just before she drove into the late-night disaster on Barnes Common, in West London, that killed him. By the late seventies, it had become a club staple on...

It's a bad ass album that never received its due acclaim. It's a Mugs Game is like a bohemian rap song...where else do you hear someone saying, oh shit, life sucks, I am so screwed, ah that's life though...and you feel the lyrics. No talk of this coolness at all. Hendrix Medley is kinda cool too...synth'd up like depeche mode meets their later, darker side...It is a shame there arent enough dec...
