Weird musical cravings (non new wave)...

Postby SwampThing » Tue Aug 10, 2004 4:06 pm

This is weird. I woke up this morning with the song "Abacab" by Genesis stuck in my head. I never owned anything by Genesis but I remember this album being very popular around the time MTV hit the scene. Anyone admit to having the CD, Is this New Wave blasphemy?

Since when is it heresy to listen to non new wave music? I've had Abacab in my head before. Of course, most of the time I wake up with an 80's song buzzing in my head. This morning was "Dancing In Heaven (Orbital Be-Bop)" by Q-Feel. [8D]

I listen to all sorts of stuff. Right now I'm on a big Turbonegro bender. I dunno, though. I went through a HUGE hard rock/garage rock bender about five or six years ago, just right before the White Stripes and The Hives and all that stuff came out. I

Yes, I just bought a cd single for Vanity 6's "Nasty Girl". Can't believe I did that. :)

That's hilarious, I started craving that tune last year and started putting it into my dj set, I usually mix it with Short Dick Man by 20 Fingers.

I agree that don't fear the reaper is a good song. But it is missing something. I think it could use more cowbell![:D]

Oh-I have wonderfully large tastes in music-folk-blues-jazz-and curiously-Post war to pre-war pop standards-but 'tis all a daliance-I eventually return to my true love-punk-garage and the wonderfully eclectic era we call "new wave."

Hey the Carpenters write beautiful songs. And Leonard Bernstein & Stephen Sondheim's compositions on West Side Story are timeless. But what about the Sound of Music? Yes, RODGERS & Sondheim!

OK, I have some out of the blue ones: the Delfonics, Chet Bak
