When they were new and wrote their own stuff. Never liked them when they done cover versions. Can't think off a version they done that was better than the song they covered.

Synth Brittania at the BBC, albeit on the Yesterday Channel.

 

Japan were excellent, as per, Howard Jones was likeable and sincere and the lead singer of Tears For Fears was abysmal.

Found this through Black Mirror (which I hadn't really heard of two weeks ago but am now a fan of):

And Ella Fitzgerald ... Manhattan and These Foolish things remind me of you.

Tunes, real singers, intelligent lyrics ... and great musicians

Soundtrack to 'Wheeler'. I thought when I saw the film it was a biopic. Didn't realise that Stephen Dorff (Worf from Star Trek) had such a good voice.

Thought about this song lately , written in the 1980s and again a punk one.

 

Regarding the recent bombing in Syria by the UK,France and the USA , this song is still relevant .

 

 

 

 

Warhead, is a song by the British Punk Band the U.K. Subs, and was released on their 1980 album Brand New Age. This song is primarily about the dangers of the Cold War, and other event occurring in the world at this time. It also covers the rise of Islamic Jihadists, and The Russian War in Afghanistan. This is considered a essential,, as well as influential record, of punk rock.

 

LYRICS:
Soldiers of Islam are loading their guns

They're getting ready

But the Russian tanks are mowing them down

 

There's children in Africa with tommy guns
Getting ready


While the Islam armies are beckoning on
They're getting ready

[Chorus]
There's a burning sun
And it sets in the western world


But it rises in the east
And pretty soon
It's gonna burn your temples down

[Verse 2]
While the heads of state are having their fun
Are they ready?


We're looking at the world through the barrel of a gun
Are we ready?


And you stand there beating on your little war drum
Are you ready?


And it won't be long before your time has come
Are you ready?

 


[Chorus] (X2)

[Verse 3]
Warhead, warhead, warhead
Warhead, warhead, warhead
Warhead, warhead, warhead
Warhead, warhead, warhead

Well I don't know what it is but i feel something coming
Stuck in the middle of the Yankees and the Russians
Better get moving guns are getting loaded


Fast to the border where the tanks are a rolling
There's a nation in fear another nation crying


One nation killing and another nation dying
Talk about guns and escalation bye bye planet let alone a nation
