Stéphanie Van Vyve vs Sophie Frison À votre avis, que pense votre psy de… vous ? Répondez à l'aide d'une chanson. Quelle est la chanson dont le titre est un immense mensonge potentiel ?

U2 released a part-live, part studio album in October 1988 called Rattle and Hum.  This album accompanied a filmed “Rockumentary” of the band which was filmed in Denver and Arizona.  Originally intended to be entitled  “U2 in the Americas,” the album and film instead take their name from lyrics in the song “Bullet the Blue Sky' from their album “The Joshua Tree.” Studio sessions for Rattle and Hum included time at Sun Studio in Memphis, and include collaborations with other musicians including Bob Dylan and B.B. King.  The intent of Rattle and Hum was to explore more American blues rock, and folk, and roots music of the 50's and 60's, and includes both original and cover songs.  Critics were divided on the album at the time of its release.  Some felt that U2 was not celebrating blues rock and artists as much as they were attempting to insert themselves into higher echelons of rock celebrity.  Over time the criticisms of egotism would fade, as U2 has indeed proven to be a major force in the Rock pantheon.  In retrospect, both Bono and The Edge have found Rattle and Hum to be a bit of a side excursion for the band, more of a “scrapbook” than a true direction.  The new direction of U2 would be set beginning with their next studio album, “Achtung Baby” in 1991.  Regardless, Rattle and Hum is a great album, well worth a listen.  The collaboration with other artists is worth special attention, as is its examination of the way that modern rock finds its roots in the delta blues.Friend of the show Greg Lyon sits in for Wayne, while Rob brings us this hybrid album for today's podcast.Angel of HarlemThe second single from the album is an original studio release which was written as an homage to Billie Holiday.  Songwriting took place during the tour for ”The Joshua Tree,” and the lyrics take inspiration form various landmarks around New York City.  The track reached number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 9 on the UK Singles chart.  When Love Comes to TownRecorded in Sun Studios, this U2 original song features collaboration with blues guitarist B.B. King. Live performances included B.B. King and his band during the “Lovetown Tour” in 1989.  U2 would discontinue playing the song in concert over time, but revived it in 2015 as a tribute to B.B. King after his death.  King plays lead on this song written by The Edge, who takes on rhythm guitar for this track.All Along the WatchtowerThis live cover is of a song written by Bob Dylan and made famous by Jimi Hendrix.  The lyrics are of a conversation between a joker and a thief, and several lines echo lines of scripture from the book of Isaiah in the Bible.  U2 performed this live cover in San Francisco at the “Save The Yuppie Free Concert.”  Some of the lyrics were altered, which irritated Dylan. Pride (In the Name of Love)A live version of the studio song from the 1984 album The Unforgettable Fire, this was recorded in Denver.  The popularity of this song can be heard in the audience call-and-response.  The lyrics were inspired by elements of the civil rights movement, particularly the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Iko Iko by The Belle Stars (from the motion picture “Rain Man”)Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman turned in stellar performances in this dramatic film exploring autism. STAFF PICKS:Kiss by Art of Noise featuring Tom JonesBruce leads off the staff picks with a cover of a Prince song performed by an unusual pairing of art rock group the Art of Noise with Vegas crooner Tom Jones.  This became the biggest hit for the Art of Noise to that point, reaching number 5 on the UK charts and number 31 on the Billboard Hot 100.  She Drives Me Crazy by Fine Young CannibalsLynch brings us the most successful single from the British pop trio, off their second and final album, “The Raw & the Cooked.” The band formed from two previous bands, one Ska, and one Punk.  The track was composed at Prince's Paisley Park Studios in Minneapolis.Once Bitten, Twice Shy by Great WhiteGreg features a rocker.  Great White covered a song originally written and performed by Ian Hunter in 1975.  This song went to number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Great White had a more blues-oriented sound than many of the hair metal bands of the late 80's.  Lead singer Jack Russell passed after a battle with Lewy body dementia in August 2024.What I Am by Edie Brickell & New BohemiansRob closes out the staff picks with the signature song off Edie Brickell & New Bohemians' debut album, "Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars."  The inspiration for the song was Brickell's frustration with the dogma exhibited in a world religions class in college.  Brickell would meet her husband and fellow musician, Paul Simon, when she performed this song on Saturday Night Live. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Sunset Road by Bela Fleck & the FlecktonesThis jazz fusion piece with an unusual banjo lead was on the group's debut album, and takes us out for this episode.

Dave and Milt take listeners back to the week ending April 8, 1989, dissecting the Billboard Top 10 hits from that time. They provide insights, critiques, and contextual tidbits about each song, including highlights like 'Funky Cold Medina' by Tone Loc, 'Stand' by R.E.M., 'Like a Prayer' by Madonna, and 'The Look' by Roxette. Throughout the episode, they reminisce about personal and pop culture moments, celebrate special episodes, and interact with listener mail. The episode wraps up with the infamous Play Date quiz focusing on songs about insanity, and the hosts' substitution segment where they replace one song from the Top 10 with an underappreciated track from the same week. A fun exploration of 1989's music landscape combined with engaging anecdotes and listener interaction.   Topics 00:37 Back Pain and Injuries 02:39 Listener Mail and Shoutouts 05:53 1989 Time Machine: Music and Memories 14:25 Tone Loc's Funky Cold Medina 28:17 Was (Not Was) and Walk the Dinosaur 39:10 Vanessa Williams' Musical Journey 39:55 The Scandal and Comeback 41:31 Celebrity Who Wants to Be a Millionaire 42:31 Bands with Punctuation Marks 45:53 Rod Stewart's Career Resurgence 52:44 REM's Fun Departure with 'Stand' 01:00:44 Madonna's 'Like a Prayer' Controversy 01:11:48 Fine Young Cannibals' Unique Sound 01:17:49 Songs About Insanity Quiz 01:19:16 Starting with a Musical Challenge 01:19:41 Crazy Songs Quiz 01:20:11 More Crazy Songs 01:20:47 Wrapping Up the Quiz 01:23:41 Discussing Suicidal Tendencies 01:26:44 Milli Vanilli Controversy 01:32:45 The Bangles' Eternal Flame 01:39:53 Roxette's Breakthrough Hit 01:45:06 Recap and Reflections

Toph leads the discussion and review of Fine Young Cannibals' 1989 album ‘The Raw & The Cooked' – including, as always, albums + songs on our radar and much more!   Stop the presses...we did two episodes in 8 days!  Which makes us proud as pie.  Tune in to hear the boys discuss the sweet sultry (I guess) voice of Roland Gift, provide the story of how this "spin off" band came about, and play the strangest game in the history of 2T&A.  Will this episode be raw? Will it be cooked? Will it be a Gift?  Will it be a good thing?  Will we drive you crazy? Will you be satisfied?  Or will you take what you can get?  Regardless -- don't look back, and give episode 92 a listen.  It's ok.  It's alright.

Les années 1980 sont devenues magiques pour beaucoup de gens qui donneraient cher aujourd'hui pour y revenir. Et en y repensant, je dois vous avouer me souvenir qu'on avait l'impression de vivre un grand moment. Tout nous semblait nouveau et moderne en 1980 : on jouait aux Space Invaders, on écoutait des radios libres pour la première fois et on utilisait un enregistreur VHS. Et si, question musique, en 1980, il y avait encore des Chantal Goya pour chanter Bécassine et Julio Iglesias Je n'ai pas changé, le reste, mis bout à bout, était sacrément moderne : The Buggles, Orchestral Manoeuvres, Funkytown, le Manureva d'Alain Chamfort, le Banana Split de Lio ou John and Mary de Robert Palmer, c'est quand même une musique futuriste avec tous ces synthés.Et puis il y a le ska. Je revois encore toute la piste de danse sautant d'un bloc sur One step beyond quinze fois sur la soirée d'un samedi. C'était quelque chose de radicalement nouveau qui correspondait tellement à la jeunesse du début des années 80. Si le genre n'a pas fait long feu, en Angleterre, il a été un véritable phénomène social avec des groupes comme Madness, bien sûr, mais surtout les Specials, Selecter, Bad Manners et The Beat. Complètement méconnu chez nous, The Beat enchaîne trois albums, tous disques d'or, avant de se séparer. Alors qu'est-ce qu'on fait ? se demandent Andy Cox et David Steele, respectivement bassiste et guitariste de The Beat, les auteurs de cette intro que tous les Britanniques connaissent … Moi je vous dis : une paire pareille de musiciens ne devrait pas se séparer, et justement, ils décident de continuer ensemble. Mais que jouer comme musique ? Ils sont plutôt punk, ont connu le succès avec le ska, deux musiques bien passées de mode en 1984, alors ils suivent un peu le mouvement du milieu de cette décennie, avec les Wham!, Madness ou Culture Club qui ont injecté de la soul américaine dans leur musique. Andy et David jouent chacun de plusieurs instruments, ils sont un band à eux seuls mais voilà, il leur faut un chanteur, un frontman. Alors ils passent une annonce dans un magazine musical. Pour vous dire à quel point la scène musicale était intense et lisait les magazines, ils reçoivent 500 cassettes de gars qui veulent être leur chanteur. Quand va-t-on écouter tout ça ?Ben on s'arrête au premier qui nous plaît.Et si le suivant est dix fois meilleur ?Ils vont mettre huit mois à trouver le temps de tout écouter et à choisir le bon. Il se nomme Roland Gift, et a aussi fait du ska, mais comme saxophoniste, dans un groupe de Hull sur la côte est du nord de l'Angleterre, bien connue de ceux qui prennent le ferry pour la Hollande. Ainsi naissent les Fine Young Cannibals, un groupe qui incarne tellement la seconde partie des années 80, une carrière fulgurante, seulement deux albums mais quels albums, synthèse de la pop d'une époque où on vivait pour la musique.

Send us a message, so we know what you're thinking!In case you hadn't noticed, we love a good cover version! This episode, we're looking at covers - staples, covers from strange sources, and some songs that have had a LOT of covers, including a bunch of covers of Bowie's “Heroes”. Our Album You Must Hear before You Die is “Is This It?” by The Strokes.

Robin Millar doesn't let anything hold him back. The man is blind, and yet he became one of the most successful producers in the UK in the 80s. His biggest claim to fame is shepherding a young Sade to two world-beating albums (her first two). Working together to find her unique sound made him the go-to guy for "sophistopop" and brought him a ton of success. He did the first few Everything But the Girl albums, the Fine Young Cannibals' debut, the first Colin Hay album and even scratched his rock itch by doing the third Big Country album. Oh, and he discovered Phoebe Bridgers and Cigarettes After Sex. And he was appointed CBE. And knighted. And, again, he's blind. You won't believe this one!  www.robinmillar.org.uk/music www.patreon.com/c/thehustlepod

El segon disc dels can

Extrait : « … ils voyagent jusqu'aux studios de Paysley Park à Minneapolis, et demandent à Prince de produire le disque. La légende raconte que le génial p'ti bonhomme aurait refusé, sous prétexte qu'ils n'étaient pas assez jolies filles. Info à vérifier, toutes les sources ne mentionnent pas l'anecdote. En revanche ce qui est certain c'est que Prince leur a prêté David Z, proche collaborateur et habitué de Paisley Park. La production de l'album est somptueuse, le résultat est brillant de bout en bout, et les deux singles She drives me crazy et Good Thing grimpent tout en haut des charts de la moitié de la planète … »Pour commenter les épisodes, tu peux le faire sur ton appli de podcasts habituelle, c'est toujours bon pour l'audience.

Découvrez les coulisses de She Drives Me Crazy, le tube iconique des années 80 signé par le groupe éphémère mais marquant des Fine Young Cannibals. Dans cet épisode de Music Story, Pat Angeli explore les secrets de fabrication de ce morceau culte.Produit par David Z, collaborateur de Prince, et enregistré dans les studios légendaires de Paisley Park à Minneapolis, ce titre regorge de subtilités. Le chanteur Roland Gift a accompli un véritable exploit vocal en combinant une voix normale et un fausset rappelant les Bee Gees, une prouesse qui a valu à cette chanson une place dans le top 50 des morceaux les plus marquants de la décennie, selon Billboard.Bien que le groupe n'ait duré que deux albums, il a laissé une empreinte indélébile grâce à ce hit énergique. Pat Angeli nous partage des anecdotes inédites sur sa création, des techniques innovantes aux influences princières.Notre équipe a utilisé un outil d'Intelligence artificielle via les technologies d'Audiomeans© pour accompagner la création de ce contenu écrit.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for Jan 25th          Publish Date:  Jan 24th          Commercial: Henssler :15   From the Henssler Financial Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Thursday, January 25th and Happy 8th Birthday to Fine Young Cannibals guitarist Andy Cox.  ***01.25.24 – BIRTHDAY – ANDY COX*** I'm Dan Radcliffe and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia.  Family Raising Funds After Mother of 4 Killed in Cobb Kennesaw Man Accused of Vehicular Homicide   Marietta Army Supply Store to Close After Almost 70 Years     Plus, Bruce Jenkins sits down with Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets to discuss economical snacking for kids.   All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!    BREAK: CU of GA    STORY 1: Family Raising Funds After Mother of 4 Killed in Cobb In Marietta, the family of Melinda Jolly, a mother of four killed by an abusive boyfriend, is raising funds on GoFundMe for her three children and their new caretakers—Melinda's brother Tommy and his wife Stacey. Melinda moved to Georgia with her children after her husband's death in 2019. The fundraiser, organized by Melinda's sister Pamela, has raised over $20,000 of a $50,000 goal. Melinda was in an abusive relationship, and her family had requested welfare checks. Unfortunately, she was found dead during the last check. The alleged murderer, Charles Cook, had a history of endangering the children. Pamela fondly remembers Melinda as a kind and compassionate person. Those interested in donating can visit the [GoFundMe page](https://www.gofundme.com/f/in-memory-of-melinda-jolly). STORY 2: Kennesaw Man Accused of Vehicular Homicide In Kennesaw, a 71-year-old man, Allan Craig Johnson, is accused of causing a fatal collision. Johnson, driving a Chevrolet Trailblazer, allegedly failed to yield to a Jeep Liberty driven by Randall Riggs while entering Dallas Highway. The collision resulted in Riggs suffering a fractured femur and multiple injuries. The medical examiner, Dr. Christopher Gulledge, opines that the injuries, captured on video, along with heart disease, contributed to Riggs' death. Johnson faces charges of second-degree vehicular homicide and failure to yield, both misdemeanors. He was arrested and released on $5,720 bond.   STORY 3: Marietta Army Supply Store to Close After Almost 70 Years After nearly 70 years, Hodge Army Navy, Cobb's iconic military surplus store, is closing. Founded in 1955 by John W. Hodge, it initially sold decommissioned tools from Lockheed. Post-9/11, changes in military camouflage technology affected their business. Owner Paul Earls adapted by sourcing from veterans' estates and abandoned storage units. The store, a staple in the community, served diverse clientele for decades. The closure is attributed to the shift towards online shopping, making it challenging for brick-and-mortar stores. Hodge Army Navy provided unique services, including recreating uniforms for veterans' burials. The store's Marietta location gained fame as a filming location for shows like "Stranger Things." Hodge Army Navy will close its doors for good after almost 70 years in business.   We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

STORY 5: Chattahoochee RiverLands Project Approved for $3M State Grant The Georgia Board of Natural Resources approved funding for 13 land conservation, restoration, and parks projects, including $3 million for the Chattahoochee RiverLands Regional Trailhead in Cobb. The funding will develop a park at the corner of Mableton Parkway and Discovery Boulevard.

What's up, dudes? Duane and Scott from Tinsel Tunes and Randy Anthony from Hip Christmas are with me today to discuss the IRS Records 1987 promotional Christmas compilation and subsequent 1990 commercial release “Just in Time for Christmas.” Both albums are full of alternative artists with quirky, original Christmas songs. Some are very good. Others are great for background music at parties.I.R.S. Records was a major American record label founded by Miles Copeland—brother of Police drummer Stewart Copeland—Jay Boberg, and Carl Grasso in 1979. I.R.S. produced some of the most popular bands of the 1980s, and in particular was known for college rock, new wave and alternative rock artists, including R.E.M., The Go-Go's, Wall of Voodoo, and Fine Young Cannibals. Their catalog is pretty varied, and they used it to their advantage in 1987 for their “Just In Time For Christmas” promo album!The album came with a gatefold cardboard sleeve so record executives could pen warm wishes and season's greetings to each other. And, while the 1990 commercial reissue cassette and cd are readily available, the original ‘87 vinyl is pretty scarce. The album has 7 tracks: 6 originals and 1 contemporary cover of a classic hymn. The 1990 release has 13 tracks: that's 8 originals and 3 contemporary covers of classic hymns. TIMBUK3? Yep. Wall of Voodoo? They're there too. Stewart Copeland? Well, only under the pseudonym Klark Kent!Hip ChristmasFB: @HipChristmasMusicIG: @hipchristmasmusicTinsel TunesFB: @tinseltunesIG: @tinseltunespodcastTwitter: @TinselTunesPodJingle JankFB: @jinglejankpodcastIG: @jinglejankpodTwitter: @jinglejankpodChristmas MorningIG: @xmasmorningpodTwitter: @xmasmorningpodTownshend LightsCheck us out on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Totally Rad Christmas Mall & Arcade, Teepublic.com, or TotallyRadChristmas.com!

The English Beat—or, if you live in England, the Beat—was one of the key bands of the late ‘70s/ early ‘80s British ska-punk scene. Guitarist/songwriter Dave Wakeling sang most of this interracial, socially conscious group's songs, with Ranking Roger toasting, and he takes us inside the making of the band's brilliant debut album, I Just Can't Stop It (out in an expanded edition for Record Store Day Black Friday). Wakeling tells how the bass-driven “Mirror in the Bathroom” came together and digs into the band's relationship with Specials, the Beat's breakup, and songs such as “Save It for Later” and “Tenderness,” the latter from Wakeling's and Ranking Roger's subsequent band, General Public. Was there a rivalry between General Public and Fine Young Cannibals, the other Beat spinoff band? How did Wakeling and Roger wind up fronting their own versions of the Beat on either side of the Atlantic? (Photo by Bryan Kremkau.)

David "Z" Rivkin is a Grammy-winning record producer, engineer, mixer, and writer who has an ability and knack for finding and developing independent, cutting-edge artists into hugely impactful stars. He's had his hands on some of the most iconic songs from the 80's – probably best-known for his long-standing collaborations with Prince, including hits like Purple Rain and Kiss – but he's also contributed to award-winning albums by Etta James, Billy Idol, and Bo Deans, to name a few. He produced the #1 single She Drives Me Crazy by Fine Young Cannibals; and he was also a member of Lipps, Inc, with whom he had a #1 hit with Funkytown. David is widely regarded of one of the original innovators of the signature “Minneapolis sound” that artists like Prince mastered, and just about everyone else tried to copy. In this episode, we cover a lot of ground including: Learning recording and engineering techniques by the seat of his pants out of necessity Meeting Prince and creating that instantly-recognizable, signature Minneapolis “80's sound” with drum machines and synthesizers The importance of experimentation in the studio How he made that hyper-pop snare sound on Fine Young Cannibals' She Drives Me Crazy" Using conscientious choices versus “happy accidents” while recording Prince's prolific songwriting, and how he'd write 30 songs to get 1 good one Must-have recording gear in the studio How he'll work in any musical genre except Dub Step The differences between analog and digital studios, and embracing the new technologies But beyond his musical achievements, David Z is also deeply committed to using his platform for noble causes. He candidly discusses how drug addiction has touched his family, and shares his dedication towards supporting diabetes and drug addiction services. So, join us for an inspiring journey through David's impressive discography, his personal challenges, and the impact he's made off-stage. Join us, and let's celebrate the enduring legacy of David Z, a true titan of the music industry!

Fred Armisen loves ska. He's brought it up on multiple Tonight Show appearances. Portlandia famously did the Bart Ska-mpson skit (with guest Matt Groening), and he performed a ska song in one Saturday Night Live sketch (with Bill Hader and Katy Perry). So, we brought Fred on the podcast and discussed all things ska. He had a lot to say on the topic. We talked about his love for 2 Tone ska bands (The Specials, The Selecter, Madness, English Beat, Bad Manners, The Bodysnatchers). But we also talked about the US ska bands he got to know in the 80s and 90s while he played drums in Chicago punk band Trenchmouth. We talked about Fishbone, Skankin' Pickle, Gangster Fun, Slapstick, Let's Go Bowling and more. We also talk about ska in Latin America, which he learned about during his multiple trips to Santiago, Chile, while filming Los Espookys. We talk about the larger movement of punk/New Wave bands that dabbled with ska XTC, The Clash, The Members, Joe Jackson) or stemmed from ska bands (Fun Boy Three, Fine Young Cannibals, General Public) and we talk lovingly about Chicago's famous indie venue, Fireside Bowl. I also tell Fred about a rumor I heard that Cap'n' Jazz were the first band to play Fireside and he votes on whether it was true or not! We also talk about how dumb band fights can get, the influencing role that Alan Myers (Devo), David Barbarossa (Bow Wow Wow), Topper Headon (The Clash) and Clem Burke (Blondie) had on his drumming style, and he takes a moment to mourn the loss of Specials lead singer Terry Hall, which hit him hard.Plus, we decide the perfect number of bands to have on a bill. Listen and find out! Support the show

Today! Two Music Business icons Under One Roof You tell me if I am exaggerating. Originally from Queens, NY, Michael began his career as a staff engineer at Jimi Hendrix's Electric Lady Studios, over a 9-year period working with a multitude of artists including, Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke, Kiss, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Chic, Ike & Tina Turner and Hall & Oates.  From there launching his engineering and mixing career with Billy Idol's ferocious, Multi-Platinum album, ‘Rebel Yell'.  Mike Gormley Ottawa-born Mike Gormley has achieved top recognition as a journalist, record company executive, artist manager, music supervisor for TV and films, and marketing/PR expert in 40+ years in the music industry. 
Gormley, as his friends call him, has been responsible for setting into motion many artists' careers. His work has brought the world such successful artists as film composer Danny Elfman, the massively successful pop band The Bangles, and helped launch the careers of such diverse artists as Rod Stewart, Rush, BTO, The Police, and Supertramp. When Mercury Records was absorbed into the German-Dutch giant, Polygram, Mike assumed corporate public relations duties and helped establish the PolyGram brand in the U.S. Mike left A&M to start his own management firm LAPD, (Los Angeles Personal Development) with Miles Copeland, manager of The Police and founder of IRS Records (REM, The Go Go's, Fine Young Cannibals, and others). Gormley eventually became the sole owner of LAPD. During this time, he convinced Danny Elfman, leader of the legendary band, Oingo Boingo to write the score for Tim Burton's first movie “Pee Wee's Big Adventure” spawning Elfman's mercurial climb to the top of the film composer world. Elfman, a multi-Oscar nominee is now considered one of the top five film composers in the world.
