Hopefully you'll find something you like amongst this rather eclectic collection. So, in no particular order...
"Moonlight Rendezvous" - BEAST IN BLACK (discovered at the Star Trek forum that I frequent)
"Cry Little Sister" | Theme from The Lost Boys - Gerard McMann (love the film, and this song!)
Strictly Pro-Dancers Halloween Results Show routine (I love this performance! Kai and Nadiya are beautiful dancers, but King Gorka steals the show. I'm not sure if this BBC video will be available outside the UK, so I found the music that they dance to - an arrangement of "Ode To Joy" - and popped it below.
"Ode To Joy" | Epic Trailer Version - performed by L'Orchestra Cinématique, and written by Ludwig Van Beethoven, of course.
"Sister Ray" - Foxes (discovered at Jon's, here)
"All Night Operator" (Pt. 1) - Goldfrapp (I'm not sure that they ever got around to a Part 2?)
"I'm Not Your Hero" | The Murderbot Diaries Animatic - Tegan and Sara (another one that I've listened to over and over again since first coming across it at Tor.com last year)
"Tokyo" - White Lies (first featured at the beginning of October here, and listened to again and again and again!)
"Rain Down Love" - Freemasons feat. Siedah Garrett (a perennial favourite)
* For the longest time, I read uptonking as Up Tonking rather than Upton King. Ms Scarlet had the same issue and noted it somewhere a while back, but I can't remember where otherwise I'd've linked to it.
EDIT 1st Oct 2022: I've found it! It was Dinahmow (as well as Ms Scarlet), as evidenced here.
P.S. I'll reply to the comments of the Garden Photos Event Finale (and this post, if it gets any) tomorrow - and visit your latest offerings, too! (Been a bit busy the last couple of days and today...)
Hit the play button for the Freemason's- Rain Down Love, and meet me in the gincuzzi......
ReplyDeleteIt's on and I'm in!
DeleteI absolutely love that Freemasons song! [And video - which is a camp-as-tits tribute to Daft Punk, of course...] Jx
ReplyDeleteIt's certainly been one of my most listened to this year.
Delete[But of course!]
Fun stuff. I agree about Freemasons. Siedah had that duet with MJ that went #1 here, stateside. Tegan and Sara have certainly carved their own path, huh? And that Goldfrapp? Not my fave, but any Goldfrapp is good Goldfrapp. Kizzes.
ReplyDeleteI must admit, I don't know anything else that Tegan and Sara have done (I really should remedy that) - I only know them from that Murderbot animatic.
DeleteYou're right about Goldfrapp - I don't think I dislike anything they've done (although, there are one or two tracks that I might skip past if I'm not in the mood).
For gawd's sake, take some time off from blogging. You've worked hard on the Garden Photos Event and you deserve it. Get into the gincuzzi with Maddie and RELAX. (Although I don't think relaxation is what Maddie has in mind.)
ReplyDeleteDo you know, I think I'm going to take you up on your suggestion for a bit of time off fr-
Delete:: Careful Maddie! I don't think this thing is water- Uh, I mean gin-proof?! ::
Sorry about the interruption, Very Mistress. Now, where was I?
Ha! I used to listen to Cry Little Sister over and over as well!! I loved the film too.
ReplyDeleteA bit of time off from....???? Don't forget to put it on the rota we were supposed to have!
Sx
Oh, gods, the rota!!! Where is it?? Has Jon added his February holiday??? What's happening at Christmas?!?
DeleteAh yes, I snuck into the movie theater to see The Lost Boys as I was a tad underage to be going to it without an adult. The benefit of being Fae is that no one knows how old you are and you're approximately the age they expect you to be. I like the Goldfrapp too! I haven't heard of them before, but you know, I toe the line between sexy dangerous and innocent rebel.
ReplyDeleteAh, Goldfrapp are one of my favourites! And they do have a smattering of sexy dangerousness along with rebellious innocence, so I think you'll like more of their music.
DeleteCould I just sit quietly with a glass of nicely chilled bubbly...?
ReplyDeleteOf course you can, Dinah. "Moonlight Rendezvous" didn't agree with you, hmm?
