ece for twenty years all five members of the band were photogenic and were labelled the prettiest boys in rock by people magazine the band worked with fashion designers to build a sharp and elegant image they always looked appealing in all their posters but it s always john taylor who always caught my eyes he is really a looker princess diana of wales declared duran duran her favourite band and the band were dubbed the fab five by the british press comparing them to the beatles whose nickname was the fab four duran duran got introduced to generation y in 1993 when they released their comeback album entitled wedding album with hits like ordinary world and come undone their music fits likes a glove and it sound so current watching them live was just plain crazy the sound of simon s voice will lift your spirit high and take on an emotional journey and will take you back in time like it was still 1983 i feel sorry for the 90s because it was never able to be anything much more than the hangover to the party that was the 80s simon lebon share this email a link to a friend opens in new window email tweet print opens in new window print like loading leave a comment posted in

pronounced as in excess performed live a few years back with their front man j d fortune in singapore and they are brilliant it would have been a greater experience if michael hutchence was still the front man of the band no offense to j d this australian rock pop band started off in their high school back in 1977 farris brothers tim lead guitar andrew keyboards and jon drums formed the farris brothers consisting of gary beers on bass guitar geoff kennelly on drums michael hutchence on lead vocals and kirk pengilly on guitar and saxophone the manager of midnight oil beds are burning gary morris offered the band a work as support to midnight oil he advised that a member of the oils crew had come up with a new name and suggested they change it to inxs the name inxs was inspired by english band xtc and australian jam makers ixl as per morris a commercial for a brand of jam called ixl their ad featured a guy who said i excel in all i do i d recently seen the english band xtc when they toured australia and i loved their name xtc ecstasy in that moment i put all those thoughts together the name needed to be letters but make a word i put the ixl jam commercial together with xtc and the concept of a band that was inaccessible and i had it inxs in the morning of 22 november 1997 hutchence aged 37 was found dead in room 524 at the ritz carlton hotel in double bay sydney the demised caused by a suicide while depressed and under the influence of drugs and alcohol inxs did not perform publicly for a year inxs decided to continue without hutchence and back in 2005 inxs took their search for a lead singer to rock star inxs a reality tv show on cbs the winner was canadian singer j d fortune i loved that show and i was routing for marty casey and who can forget the encore performance of jordis unga s the man who sold the world this made me appreciate this old david bowie song i remember liking this band back in 1988 when i heard need you tonight lead singer songwriter was still michael hutchence once dated kylie minogue he co wrote almost all of inxs s songs with andrew farris who has attributed his own success as a songwriter to hutchence s genius there are many individuals that worked with other individual and became unstoppable i e lennon and mccartney or simon and garfunkel in inxs case disappear would have never happened if musical fate had not paired some unforgettable musicians the band s seventh and last top 10 single written by jon farris and michael hutchence while they were living together in hong kong in 1989 this song made sense to me while

1984 artists new order album released as single other hits bizarre love triangle shellshock regrets blue monday true faith the instrumental of the track was featured in the 1986 movie pretty in pink but were not on the soundtrack album thieves like us is a single by british group new order released in april 1984 formed in 1980 by bernard sumner vocals guitars and synthesisers peter hook bass synthesisers and stephen morris drums electronic drums synthesisers between 1977 and 1980 bernard stephen and peter together with ian curtis were members of the post punk band joy division the day before joy division love will tear us apart were scheduled to depart for their first american tour curtis committed suicide on 18 may 1980 the rest of the band decided that they would carry on but prior to curtis s death they had agreement not to continue under the joy division name should any one member leave the band thanks to the band s manager robert gretton of 20 years this unnamed trio found the name new order in an article in the guardian entitled the people s new order of kampuchea new order was formed by the remaining members of joy division following the suicide of vocalist ian curtis with the addition of keyboard player gillian gilbert thieves like us were taken from the title of the same 1974 cannes film festival movie starring keith carradine and shelley duvall the film was based on the novel thieves like us by edward anderson many new order song titles have nothing to do with the song in some cases songs with normal titles appear to have had their titles swapped with other songs the bands rarely gave interviews and were known for performing short concert sets with no encores in 1993 the band put new order on hold while each member continued on with their own side projects the group reconvened in 1998 at the suggestion of rob gretton i cannot listen to this song without seeing molly ringwald making her dress one of the things i learned from pretty in pink the best way to get new clothes is to make your own not i came across this song while watching this american teen romantic comedy drama film about teenage love and social clichés in 1980s american high schools kudos to the director writer john huges for putting this song in the movie he introduced me to a different reverberation of an alternative rock electronic band with the likes of new order sometimes i feel jh created this movies because of these music and not the other way around but whatever it is the soundtrack of his films resonates in time share this email a link to a friend opens

end of the world everybody hurts stand shiny happy people in morning of september 22 2011 i woke up and tuned in to cnn and this is what i saw r e m call it a day to our fans and friends as r e m and as lifelong friends and co conspirators we have decided to call it a day as a band we walk away with a great sense of gratitude of finality and of astonishment at all we have accomplished to anyone who ever felt touched by our music our deepest thanks for listening r e m this is the kind of news that you wouldn t expect from a band who s been together for 31 years and so all you could ever do is sigh and uttered now i can never hear them perform live ever so what are they doing here in my blog they are not new wave and in fact in the early 1980s the alternative rock of r e m stood in contrast to the post punk and new wave genres simply because they are rem and they are the first alternative rock bands that paved way for other bands such as nirvana live etc i grew up listening to their songs and remember liking their mid tempo and enigmatic musical style long after the release of losing my religion formed in athens georgia in 1980 by singer michael stipe guitarist peter buck bassist mike mills and drummer bill berry michael stipe met peter buck in the athens record store where buck worked the pair discovered that they shared similar tastes in music stipe and buck soon met fellow university of georgia students mike mills and bill berry who had played music together since high school the quartet agreed to collaborate on several songs stipe later commented that there was never any grand plan behind any of it and yet r e m achieved a mainstream hit in 1987 with the single the one i love and in 2007 the band was inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame the name of the band was selected at random from a dictionary by stipe by definition rapid eye movement or rem is a normal stage of sleep characterized by the random movement of the eyes we usually experience about four or five periods of rem sleep they are quite short at the beginning of the night and longer toward the end i like popular people and groups who basked in their glory but never just sit there and looked pretty this band is always active in politics and environment according to the los angeles times r e m is considered to be one of the united states most liberal and politically correct rock groups the band s members are on the same page politically sharing a liberal and progressive outlook r e m has helped raise funds for environmental feminist and human rights causes and has been involved in campaigns to encourage voter registration stipe was involved with people for the ethical treatment of animals it s a shame that after 31 years it ended rem is no more share this email a

and rune kristoffersen year 1986 artists fra lippo lippi albums songs other hits angel every time i see you light and shade stitches and burns this band was huge when i was growing up not internationally though they didn t top us or uk charts but from where i came from their concert was a definite sold out i happened to catch them performed live in the early 00 and it was one of the memorable concerts i have ever attended the crowd was up and bopping the atmosphere was so alive fyi norway s gift to music was not just a ha they also have fra lippo lippi joined together in 1980 by bassist rune kristoffersen the band s name derived from an 1855 dramatic monologue written by the victorian poet robert browning throughout this poem browning depicts a 15th century real life painter filippo lippi in the early years of fll they were obsessed with the humming beats and glum lyrics of joy division the same band that influenced u2 and the cure their album during these times did not give positive reviews until per øystein sørensen came on board in 1982 and released the album songs that the band was signed to virgin records where most of their work re recorded and remixed for the international market in 1986 one of my favorite song from this band is the song the distance between us the single has a sombre expression that you can actually categorized it as a love song but still differs from the usual love song of the 80 s because it s from a new wave band so it wouldn t just blurt out didn t we almost have it all somehow it didn t sound so lame and emotional you can only feel the sense and the passion thru its lyrics never in the sound fll produce a lot of this records this is the band s forte synth pop with a slow tempo and poetic lyrics i think for some of us if 80 s has a sound it will be the sweet tooth of sørensen if 80 s has words it will the stanzas of their songs fra lippo lippi ceased recording in the early 90s both artists returned to norway

curt smith both were schoolmates from bath england i was in grade school when i first heard their songs i must admit i didn t like them a bit their songs were full of angst anger shout and madness i remember hating this duo for topping the charts but there s something in their music that with repeated listening will kind of grow in you and fit you like a glove and there s nothing left for you to do but give in and succumb to their tunes and lyrics after all they are the pioneer for the new wave sounds they were initially associated with the new wave synthesizer bands of the early 1980s but later branched out into mainstream rock and pop which led to international chart success they first formed a band called history o...
