      The 80s. The greatest 10 years in human history

    • @martinda7446
      @martinda7446 4 роки тому +1

      @ People are crazy. The 60s and 70s were (not just) musically among the most extraordinarily creative years in human history.
      Along with the Age of Reason and the enlightenment with Leonardo, Newton etc. and then the industrial revolution with Faraday and Maxwell giving us the electrical world and then those remarkable first twenty or so years of the 20th century where our understanding of the universe was raised many levels by Einstein and Niels Bohr.
      The 80s was an awful period where the world became one big shop and it was better to be making cash rather than art. We are still suffering from the 80s. I agree the 60s was probably in the region of one million times better, seriously. Just look at a car from the 60s. We landed on the moon in 1969.
      Music, through inertia carried on with mixed results during the 80s, sure some was great but as the decade ended things were just looking bad.
      Not only that but listen to XRay Spex and Germ free Adolescents (1978) for an example of true genius from a true girl punk band, not some clean manufactured American copy and not the friggin Bangles or GoGos Christ on a bike!

    • @BolsaChicaRadio
      @BolsaChicaRadio 8 років тому +3

      Well, not so quick, buckeroo. During the formative years of The Go-Go's of 1981, at that "time", the girls were pretty good at harmonizing but at
      best, 'marginal' in their skills at recording and production, as it was
      producer Richard Gottehrer who had the experience, talent and overall
      creative insight to make their first hit single, "Our Lips Are Sealed" and their premiere album, "Beauty And The Beat" the classics they are today. Oh yes, and I.R.S. Records Miles Copeland's executive final stamp of approval, too!
      I always kinda wondered, how many "ghost musicians" where hired to play
      on that first album; a very popular, but secret & downplayed tactic of
      those times. I guess we shall never know...doesn't really matter at this point anymore. The millions of little "girl-power" teens who bought that first album back then, were successfully dooped into thinking that all that highly produced, carefully layered, finessed & refined, multi-tracked music, was "ALL" about them, and according to the recording industry, THAT'S what really mattered. And by-golly-gee, it worked!
      However, later as "Vacation", "Talk Show" and "God Bless The Go-Go's" were conceived & birthed, the five ladies since then, have grown and matured to become well accomplished & respected songwriters, musicians and co-producers. And, it all came to an integral, final and honorable close in the summer of 2016.
      Indeed, 'God Bless The Go-Go's'. - BCRadio/A. Ochoa

Back then you watched MTV for music, ESPN for sports, CNN for breaking news, HBO for movies and ABC, NBC and CBS for our weekly shows. Everyone was in tune as to what was going on with everything because you had to watch everything live and with the whole family.

      Yes, I'm going to talk mostly about the Go-Gos....
      I was, and will always be a true Deadhead from the time I first saw them in 1985, but still had a great appreciation for talent in many genres. Maybe if Jerry Garcia was still alive, they could all play together! Hey, it would be damn interesting and entertaining, at the least. I always supported these strong feminists known as the Go-Gos. Feminism, to me, is when women celebrate their own unique sense of femininity, rather than letting society call the shots and the traditional roles, so bless you, Go-Gos! And btw, feminism, to me, is NOT about disliking or resenting men in the slightest!! Those ladies stayed positive! They represented healthy female empowerment to me.

    In every direction
    I couldn't see the warning signs
    I must be losin' it
    Cause my mind plays tricks on me
    It looked so easy
    But you know looks sometimes deceive
    Been running so fast
    Right from the starting line
    No more connections
    I don't need any more advice
    One hand's just reaching out
    And one's just hangin' on
    It seems my weaknesses
    Just keep going strong
    [Chorus]
    Head over heels
    Where should I go
    Can't stop myself
    Outta control
    Head over heels
    No time to think
    Looks like
    The whole world's out of sync
    Been running so hard
    When what I need is to unwind
    The voice of reason
    Is one I left so far behind
    I waited so long
    So long to play this part
    And just remembered
    That I'd forgotten about my heart
    [Chorus]

    My roommates and I threw an 80s party in college in 1992, when 80s parties were still a novel idea. I made the mixtapes for the night and I specifically remember lining this one up to be one of the 4-5 "peak" songs of the evening, since it was well-known but sort of forgotten to time (unlike your Princes and Duran Durans of the world), and it gave you an immediate thrill hearing that piano opening. And sure enough, after a few hours of building up (and drinking), this one set off a mini pogoing "moshpit" in the living room. The breakdown at 2:30 where everything cuts out but the bassline and those loud handclaps is just irresistible.
