Friday night 80's British Synth-Pop.
These are some favorite tunes from my mis-spent youth - that Fay kinda likes too!
New Order - Round and Round (for some inexplicable reason, one of my favorite videos)
Depeche Mode - Just Can't Get Enough (not dark and moody like their later stuff)
New Order - Bizarre Love Triangle (even the "too cool" kids dance to this)
Modern English - I Melt With You (suitable for frat parties and wedding receptions alike)
Sorry for the ads, but the official videos are just superior quality. Hope you enjoy!
Thanks for the music lewy! It's fun to reminisce (sometimes) about one's misspent youth LOL! Although I'm getting so old most of what I remember is middle aged common sense :(
ReplyDeleteLast week Scottish synth pop, this week English synth pop, next week Welsh synth pop...oh wait not sure Wales is that advanced yet.
ReplyDelete/kidding
But I will endeavor a Welsh music post next week although I'm pretty sure it won't include any synth pop...
Be sure to stay tuned to this cannel next week for your Friday night Welsh delight, how else will you know how green was your valley, hmmm?
ReplyDeleteCannel, channel, who cares. The Welsh have entirely too many consonants anyway, they won't miss the odd h here or there.
ReplyDeleteFay, thanks, and totally looking forward to next week's Welsh music.
ReplyDeleteThen we can have Northern Ireland!
Then we can break it on down to Mercia, Northumbria, East Anglia, Essex, Wessex, Sussex, and Kent! ;)
Meanwhile, lewy will resume his regularly scheduled CrapMusic®...
Northern Ireland?!?

Hey, it's still part of the UK.
DeleteCornwall. I forgot Cornwall. Where does that one fit?
DeleteOops, sorry lewy, I need to pay more attention :-)
DeleteNo prob flo.
Deleteomg. Totally forgot Gibraltar. And the Falklands.
And where does Diego Garcia fit? Is that technically still British?
Do former colonies count? We might be able to find a few things from one of them.
DeleteHow 'bout Jamaica? And back to England via "ska" and the English Beat?
Delete(Serious question).
That is your next assignment!
DeleteWednesday is the new Friday.
DeleteYoohoo lewy over here!!! FLAME WAR starter:
ReplyDeleteYour taste in music STINKS.
;)
TCKT FLAME WAR!!!!
DeleteShall I pour the champagne, and then we may begin? Would anyone care for an hors d'oeuvre?
Fay, I will prove you right.
DeleteAnd your payback will be posted on Friday. :D
Hahahahaha! Good answer.
DeleteDoes this mean we are having duelling Friday Night Music posts? 'Cos my Welsh line up will beat you silly :)
Oh and Cymru am byth
DeleteHow would I know the difference between Welsh and LOLwelsh?
DeleteWelsh is vowel verboten.
DeleteNo ads, I have Google Chrome, baybee!!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know a single one of these, lewy. I think I checked out for most of the 80's. Good dance music, though! All the ladies in the first video could use some tweezing :-)
