Such a great song...Such a totally 80s fucked up video.

Now the video makes perfect sense.:cool:

Jim Steinman wrote most if not all of Bonnie Tyler's songs along with all of Meatloaf's big hits after the ''Rocky Horror Picture". What is amazing is the perusing the liner notes the musicians that played along and, Christ, Todd Rundgren was all in.

I listened to "Meet the Beatles", their first 'official' US album. One of the songs is "Baby, it's you". I was pretty sure they hadn't written it. They didn't... It was a 1960 Burt Bacharach song!!! Burt Bacharach and the Beatles?!?!?!?

The Beatles did quite a lot of cover versions in their early days, including Chuck Berry's "Rock & Roll Music" and "Roll Over Beethoven". They also recorded songs written by Leiber & Stoller and Goffin & King...In other words, the stuff they had grown up listening to. From "Rubber Soul" onward, they only released original works.
I think the last cover version they released was "Act Naturally", which was the B-side to "Yesterday"(!!). It had originally been recorded by Buck Owens & the Buckaroos(!!!).

Had Pp looking back through His old LPs to find Killer (1971) and Muscle of Love (1973). School's Out was 1973 from memory and was his 5th album following Killer.
 
Pp has this stuck in His head at the moment. Grrrrrraaaahhhhh!


Shameless bubblegum from Pp's youth (1969) and Tommy Roe was right up (down?) there with the 1910 Fruitgum Company and other bubblegum groups but it is pretty significant right now as some friends here will understand :(.
 

Just because I found it.

Love it Siss but have you heard the Doug Parkinson In Focus version from 1969


Or Doug's much later version from a few years ago? Yep. Same singer just 40-odd years older.

I did listen to them when looking for the the video.

Did I say that properly? :p

The first almost has a Procol Harem sound.

Doesn't it?

;)

Does a bit now that you put the suggestion in Pp's mind.

Hard to believe that it is 50 years since Procol Harum released A Whiter Shade of Pale in May 1967. If Pp could only ID who stole that LP from His collection in that share house in 1980 He would whipped the miscreant's hide.

 
This tune just gets stuck in my brain and has since the 70's!

 
This has been my new favorite song for several days now, but now I've found the music video, and it may star Barb and Tree in a ball cap, though one can't be sure.
