WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

1981

Posted over 3 years ago
Remember 1981? Some things I cannot forget...Blondie rapping in Rapture (hmm.. is that why it's called Rap-ture?). the song's basically stuck in my head all these years, so memorable and mysterious... "You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too.. Mercurys and Subarus.." ..early rapping was hilarious ..Also, the Great Space Coaster brought the neat cartoon, Monsieur Linea, to American TV... I could never forget this character, partly because he makes strange sense... but also because he keeps falling off an undrawn line, thanks to his cruel/benevolent Italian creator. Many episodes are online here: http://www.tv5.org/TV5Site/la_linea/index.php?numero=13And - nice news - soundtrack is available! The original theme song is fantastic! Other times I'm reminded of Raymond Scott and Vince GuaraldiOh the eighties...
