so happy that u heard a good song while going to work these 2 days. it really perks one up esp when u are dreading the journey to work early in the morning. yesterday flying dutchman played Culture's Club's "Miracle".....man! its feels so good to hear this kind or true 80s pop music ....boy george was such a cool character....although he was a cross dresser type and wore tones of make up but still he appealed to all audiences, no one really felt he was ah kua or whatever. his music also included a lot of soul influences....good stuff. when u listen to this type of happy upbeat 80s pop songs, really make u feel like u are back in the good old simple days. days where life in spore was picking up, pple getting more affluent but yet not overly "pretentious" yet.
this morning i heard OMD's classic "if u leave" from the Pretty In Pink OST. one of my all time fave movie and also OST. in fact i remembered i didnt own a CD player yet in the early 90s and i went ahead to buy this $25 OST CD just to keep. it was also my first CD.
They also played a Kon Kan song...oh dear suddently cant remember the title....this was a bit more towards the late 80s where music was getting a bit chessy with Stock Aiken Waterman (kylie minogue, jason donovan, sinitta...kind of songs) and US pop crap from pple like bobby brown , Paula Abdul, MC hammer etc...but it was still a very fun and happy song. one of those few better ones out of that period.
