Both the Tina Turner and Frantic w/ Robert Palmer versions are pretty good too, FWIW. Dialogues - Day Four (Give the whole thing a listen if you can stand it. Apologies if one of you shared this already.)
I looked up @Manny Ramirez 's "Oneohtrix Point Never - R Plus Seven" earlier and somehow got onto William Basinski. Would you believe I'm listening to Silent Night right this very minute? (It's very healing & exactly what I need this moment.) Forgive me for being slow, but what about Torn and Frayed?
Boston - Boston Global Communication - 76:14 interesting mix - hard rock (heavy metal) with ambient/electronic
Hey, bro. Do you listen to modern medal, specifically Norse metal? If not, I have been jamming to Manowar: "Die for Metal," "Sons of Odin," and "Sleipnir."
Went down a EWF wormhole yesterday I had forgotten how much I loved this band and why. This was a great tribute, it was let down by ending, it was hard to watch.
They were the real deal (and I'm going to have to give them a listen later now). Sad that a lot of music from them and others from their era gets completely glossed over and **** on because... disco. Are you referring to the Jonas Brothers being hard to watch? They were the only ones that sounded awful to me. They're obviously getting a ton of help from "background vocalists". What's strange is I didn't see any on stage. BTW, there are a ton of free music documentaries and concert videos on Prime right now--EWF among them.
Yeah I was worried about everyone but They all killed it except the Brothers, I thought that maybe they had the voices but they were just bad. Cynthea Revo killed it. I would pay for an album with just people like Legend and Revo doing tributes and would love to see that in concert. I thought Neyo was a little weak as well. I used to have every album and The greatest hits CD is a must.
I hear you. I thought John Legend was shaky for the first couple seconds, but he's got so much talent to fall back on. Neyo's vocals weren't all that, but he did get everyone up on their feet. I check out a lot of music at the library (and copy it) and I'm sure I have an album or two of theirs. I'll have to look for their greatest hits.
This is exactly how I felt, I was like oh no John. But he did fine and managed to put his one spin on it, which was different, by the end he rocked it. Revo was exceptional I kinda wished she did it all. The instrumentation is the amazing thing about their songs so much going on and so layered. Check this out. Just them setting up is magical.
That was cool. I have to admit, once their songs became familiar to me I pretty much just focused on the lyrics and the melodies. But they were really good. And Harvey Keitel... who knew? If I ever hit the lottery I'm going to build a music listening room for myself and a recording studio just so I can watch people play. EDIT: Holly ****, I went just now to find more from Cynthia Erivo... I had no idea she was that Cynthia Erivo!
I did not know anything about her, I saw her in a movie about a year ago Bad Times at the El Royale. I thought she was the best part of the movie did not realize that was her till I googled her.
Revisited the Weeknd's first mini album House of Balloons. Sampling the likes of Siouxsie and Banshees and Beach House. Songs had the feel of that darker Michael Jackson R&B (Billie Jean, Smooth Criminal, etc.). I liked some of his stuff that came after alright. but that first album was unique and great. Came out of nowhere.
I watched her for weeks in The Outsider (the show was really going nowhere fast until she showed up). I had heard she was excellent in Harriet, but I hadn't gotten around to watching it yet. I usually despise and lol at actresses and musicians that cross back and forth from acting to music, but she appears to have the chops.
