Back in 1988 Novella released this version of the song Running Home on the excellent Axemen compilation. It is superior to the later album version, in my opinion.

 

Heavens On My Mind is my favorite of theirs!

Frankly, I wish he'd go back to this sound...

Yeah but he followed the crowd and I don't know what Christian is supposed to sound like but for some reason it has a genre??? Like it is all supposed to sound the same???? Idk

So he went for that anyway and it sounds absolutely awful

Phantom Bride- Erasure

Journeys to Glory- Spandau Ballet

From the Violet Burning's brief period in the mainstream. This song is from their self-titled album in 1996. Alternative rock with plenty of distortion.

 

 

Can't say I've heard this one yet 

What a cool thread! The next one should be something by The Violet Burning

I saw them live during the Listen Like Thieves tour

LUCKY! 

So technically I'm late to this by an hour or so, and who knows with all of you in other places, but we need to wish this lovely and sadly dead singer a happy birthday. He was a phenomenon 

And I think Paula did him dirtier than anyone else. She didn't deserve him.

THIS!!

Was that directed at me? Or who was supposed to answer that? I realized I didn't see it till today so sorry if it was for me to answer 

True to Myself and Western World, those are two that I really like : ) 

I really like that song! There's another one (can't remember what it's called) off of that one that I also really like 

Dancing With Tears In My Eyes- Ultravox

Is that still happening, with covid, lockdowns, etc?

Yeah cause it's next year in the fall

This is also the REO Speedwagon topic, and I found out awhile ago that it's only 18+ since it's at a Casino, so I couldn't go anyway ☹️

My little sister and I painted a collage yesterday and today and she painted the bottom two. Her art is as good (if not better) than mine!! (She's 10)

Here is the collage as the albums and then our painted one. 

 And our room has the worst lighting soo yeah.

Like you, I've always loved and been fascinated by "Hotel California".

Despite it's mystery and esoteric lyrics, Joe Walsh sums it up quite simply.

I'd never thought of it before, but at the time California was a melting pot of the younger generation and therefore the actual State of California was the "Hotel".

On a side note, I tend to forget how brilliant Don Henley was to be able to play drums and sing at the same time. I know there are plenty of Musicians/Vocalists, but I think being a Drummer/Vocalist would be incredibly difficult. 

 

 

I agree
