Ok, I listen to some newer music, too... But rarely does it fall into the mainstream. I like artists like Kevin Max and Lifehouse. What about you? What are you listening to? You can also off up talk radio, if you like.
Nice to see somebody mention that little track. I was familiar with the original but had to do some research to identify the Nouvelle cover. Even sprung for the 99 cents to get it at iTunes. Given the lyrics, and the Muse track they used last year, sounds like somebody in the TCM promo tent has a taste for darker modern rock. Not exactly my thing, but the "Dance With Me" melody is sweet, and the lo-fi, almost sixtyish little girl vocals really get me.jondaris wrote:I checked out the Nouvelle Vague cover of the Lords of the New Church's "Dance With Me," which is the song used on May's TCM ad. I gotta admit that it's a bit weird hearing lyrics like "Let's dance little stranger, show me secret sins, love can be like bondage, seduce me once again" on a TCM ad, but it's a nice cover of a good song.
LOL! John, so true! Actually, I was in a production of Ragtime last summer. I played Emma Goldman. I had a blast.JohnM wrote:That's because when you heard the music from Rent and Wicked, you didn't want to sing it! The only musical in the last 35 years that had music that I really loved, was Ragtime.sandykaypax wrote: and the original cast album from State Fair, the Broadway musical with John Davidson and Andrea McArdle.
Which is unusual for me because I rarely listen to show tunes even though I love to perform in musicals. I grew out of my show tune phase sometime after high school. Consequently, I could sing the whole score for Fiddler on the Roof, or The Music Man, but not one song from Rent or Wicked.
Next up is Swing and Dance with Frank Sinatra.
