Worrapolava: November 2010
http://worrapolava.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, 27 November 2010. I'm Edei, fly me. Midweek I glimpsed the rarest of things: a bona fide live showcase. In these days of fewer and fewer new artists getting a bite of the financial apple, it was quite exciting to troll down to the launch of Edei. Pronounced Ee-dee). My mate was even more up for it: "It's been years since I went to one of these things." Like how long? Er, Eternal. When there were four of 'em". One track, Inside Information. Is a perfect introduction. Links to this post. Saturday...

Worrapolava: Together's amazing
http://worrapolava.blogspot.com/2010/11/togethers-amazing.html
Friday, 12 November 2010. Says, some of the Pet Shop Boys videos have been lacking the usual creative flair. Maybe not t his one. But definitely this one. So it's refreshing to see the new video for Together. Admittedly, the classic girl dance versus boy urban dancers isn't new, but at least it's classic PSB. Took me a while to warm up to Together, but I am really liking it now. Video is so very PSB really. 12 November 2010 at 05:15. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Saturday, 29 October 2011. The Holestar with F* *ing Everything. OK, so I haven't sniffed 'round these parts for a whole year. But honestly, this was too good not to post. Holestar.

Worrapolava: A fine bromance (reprise)
http://worrapolava.blogspot.com/2010/10/fine-bromance-reprise.html
Monday, 11 October 2010. A fine bromance (reprise). It's enough to make me quote Kenneth Williams: "What's the bloody point? The reasons for Blogger taking down posts are becoming more draconian. I received notice that the one below was taken down. Why? Hetero yet totally non-hetero, I love a good bromance. And this video from Grum for their new single Through the Night. Grum is a Scottish bloke called Graeme Shepherd who became the blogger's delight last year with his single Heartbeats. Subscribe to: Po...

Worrapolava: August 2010
http://worrapolava.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 24 August 2010. Years ago, in high school, my headmaster told me the French called pop music 'Yé-Yé music'. It wasn't meant as some cultural snippet but as a sneering put down. He was the same headmaster who blubbed to the local press when Neil Tennant wrote It's a Sin. First up is a bunch of thrift store guitar twiddlers turned All Saints stadium pop gods. One Night Only. Has such an 80s anthemic ring, it belies the true age of the singer (er, 20). Say You Don't Want It. Links to this post.

Worrapolava: September 2010
http://worrapolava.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 28 September 2010. 28 years after the original version was played every week as the theme tune for the BBC's cheapo saturday show Get Set For Summer. I remember the TV show being outside a lot, but with a British summer, that usually meant bands looking pissed off, slipping onstage as their peacock hairdos flattened in the drizzle. Yazoo - Get Set (1982). Vince Clark and Alison Moyet had a ball reconnecting with each other. And You and Me. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
