Haha, I figured 'well that isn't very original'.
Clicked play. And listened through the whole song :D.

Good song! Now I'm listening to the original to compare them:

The Kinks - You Really Got Me



Before that I was listening to a song I always enjoy when I hear it on the radio, one reason being that this song uses the word "moot" in it. I think this may be only song in existence that uses the word "moot." :)

Rick Springfield - Jessie's Girl

Oh, great song!!! Always makes me want to move. :tramp:

Yes, I agree, Holly! :)

The beginning of your song reminded me of "Safety Dance" by the New Wave Group "Men without Hats," so now I'm listening to that.

I'm very amused by the video (below) since the video isn't at *all* what I envisioned based on the music. I always imagined the singers looking like Japanese robots...kind of like Devo. Instead what we get is a fake Medieval romp. :( I used to think the song was cool...but now....

Bah. I still think it's cool. This song has probably helped multitudes of shy, overly self-conscious tween years kids such as I was get over their inhibitions and actually allow themselves to dance at school parties. That's a good thing.

Heh, yeah I've always thought that video was a bad fit for the song as well. I don't know if I ever pictured Japanese robots when listening to it but I sure as hell never envisioned a midget jester running around in a medieval town during a May Day celebration either. Given the choice I definitely would've preferred your concept.

No hands- wacka flocka flame <3

I was recording a tape with a lot of Django Reinhardt on it for a forummember.

He's not much of an audiophile himself and he said: "This is probably the first premium quality recording I've ever had". But well... It's Django Reinhardt, it's recordings from the late 30's to the early 50's. It sounds awful :D.

So now I'm recording him a little tape (13cm reel, half an our of music) with
1. The Coral - Walking in the Winter (LP)
2. Calexico - The News about William (CD)
3. Jamiroquai - Drifting Along (CD)
4. Arbouretum - Highwayman (LP)
5. Sleepy Sun - Rigamaroo (LP)
6. Jimi Hendrix - Little Wing (LP)
7. The Upsessions - Dorothee Blackswan (LP)
8. Belle & Sebastian - I Fought in a War (LP)

Hope he likes it :)

<333333 RAD.

Bingo! :laughing: At first while watching the video I thought maybe it was a spoof of the real thing.

While thinking about Van Halen's cover of "You Really Got Me," I asked myself what female singers have made songs that are equivalently carnal, since it often seems as if most love/lust songs are by men. I came up with three so far: Shakira's "Shewolf" (which I hate) and the following two, which I like. :) So now I'm listening to these:

Blondie - In the Flesh
Sweet but sensual at the same time.



Divinyls - I touch myself
Very blatant. Perhaps a good female counterpart to Frankie Goes to Hollywood's infamous, "Relax (Don't do it)" which I remember seeing in concert in Germany.



So which is better, "I touch myself" or "Relax (Don't do it)?" My vote goes to the Divinyls because she is a little more holistic in her approach to desire.

Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Relax (Don't do it)
