1982 single by Modern English
POPULARITY
Cinematische Welten, epische Crescendi, kOpFkiNo, blablabla: Wenn die schottischen Post-Rocker Mogwai ein neues Album heraushauen, sind auch die Floskeln direkt aus dem Post-Rock-Phrasenschwein nicht allzu weit entfernt. Zu Unrecht. Auch wenn der einst so zukunftsgerichtete Post-Rock mittlerweile mehr nach Past-Rock klingt und längst nicht mehr für so viel Aufregung sorgt wie Ende der 90er-Jahre, ist bei der schottischen Instrumentralrock-Institution von Album zu Album eine softe Weiterentwicklung festzustellen. Seit einiger Zeit gibt's Mogwai sogar regelmässig mit Gesang, auch auf dem elften Album «The Bad Fire» wieder. +++ PLAYLIST +++ · 22:09 – SOUNDS!

This week, we're joined by Patron Marcia Potts as we travel back to a simpler time when the shirts were bright, the jackets Members Only and the music was...AWESOME! When director Martha Coolidge made her 1983 sleeper hit 'Valley Girl', she filled the movie with New Wave gems made popular by KROQ's "Rock of the 80s" format. Unfortunately the planned release of a soundtrack album was cancelled due to clearance problems with some of the songs. In 1994, Rhino Records FINALLY righted this wrong and released an official compilation of songs from the film's soundtrack on CD, making Marcia and her younger sister VERY happy! "Okay, fine Fer sure, fer sure..." Songs discussed in this episode: Valley Girl - Frank Zappa; A Million Miles Away - The Plimsouls; Hanging On The Telephone - Blondie; Johnnie, Are You Queer? - Josie Cotton; Johnnie, Are You Queer? - The Go-Go's; Fetch Me One More Beer (1978 Demo) - FEAR; Eyes Of A Stranger - Payola$; Angst In My Pants, This Town Ain't Big Enough For Both Of Us - Sparks; Who Can It Be Now? - Men At Work; Everywhere At Once - The Plimsouls; Boom Boom (Out Go The Lights) - Pat Travers Band (Live); I La La La Love You - Pat Travers; He Could Be The One - Josie Cotton; Love My Way - The Psychedelic Furs; Jukebox (Don't Put Another Dime) - The Flirts; Give Him A Great Big Kiss - The Shangri-Las; The Fanatic - Felony; Sidewinder - The New Order; She Talks In Stereo - Gary Myrick and The Figures; Oldest Story In The World - The Plimsouls; School Is In, Faster Pussycat - Josie Cotton; I Melt With You - Modern English; I Melt With You - David Hasselhoff (with Steve Stevens)
Every time I hear "I Melt With You" by Modern English, I'm instantly transported back to the '80s classic "Valley Girl," where the soundtrack wasn't just background noise, it was the heartbeat of a generation. We'll unpack the film's standout montage and the pivotal role music played, from The Plimsouls to The Psychedelic Furs, while I share my own parallel high school journey. And of course, we can't forget those quirky lines that have become as iconic as the film itself.As we flip the record, we'll explore the evolution of '80s music hits that defined an era. From Duran Duran's chart-topping journey to The Romantics' sleep-talking beats, we're unpacking the story behind the Rockwell song "Somebody's Watching Me". Plus, a special nod to The Replacements' "Don't Tell a Soul". So tease up your hair and slip on your favorite leg warmers, we're about to hit play on a mixtape of memories and music that still resonates with us today.

Mick and Robbie of Modern English dropped by to talk about their new album, "1-2-3-4." It was recorded not too far from WEXT land. And of course, we discussed the impact of "I Melt With You," on their lives and on fans.
Have you ever heard me liken my mixes to musical arcs? Typically I mold my sets as though they form an imaginary musical arc, with a distinct beginning, peak and landing. With this mix, unintentionally, my arc is more like a straight line across (that's drenched in warm, deep, melodic and heart-soaring vibes). The feel at the end of this set is very much the same as the beginning. I always like to say that I'm not the only one involved in creating my mixes. The unseen Spirit that guides me has a hand in all this too and, well, the straight line across is what the Spirit had in mind today. This one is deep, heartfelt and sturdy! ;-)As for the music. *Every* *Single* *Song* is an anthem in its own right. Of course these aren't peak of night hands in the air anthems. These are heart-tugging anthems that wrap their arms around you and drench you in warmth and melancholy blissful vibes. I always go out of my way my way to source remarkable remakes of songs from years' ago...and wow, did I find a couple of good ones for you for this set. I start the set off with Blonde Maze's remake of the 1982 international smash hit "I Melt With You" by Modern English. Later in the set I bring in York's remake of Human League's "Human" from 1986. Surrounding these two masterpieces are the most gorgeous and emotionally rich deep house records you could possibly imagine. I rarely want to mention my personal favorites on a set so as to not influence what you think of the mix overall. Well...let me just say that you should pay *really close attention* to #5 (Kairos Grove "I Don't Mind), #6 (Tailor "Never Enough"), #7 (Le Youth "I Will Leave A Light On"), #8 (Vanessa Arnolds "Colors Turn To Grey"), #9 (Martin Garrix "Real Love"), #10 (Anamē "Peaceful Avenue"), #12 (Julia Church "No Ending") and #14 (Chicane "One Thousand Suns"). Hint hint. Wink Wink. But seriously...please pay really close attention to *all* the songs on this set. Like I said above...every song here is emotionally powerful.As always, my sets are conceived and composed with every ounce of love that I've got to give. I firmly believe that each of us is placed here on earth to give a particular gift to our world around us that needs it so badly. *This* is my gift to you. From my heart...to your ears.

“Lived Through That” is the companion podcast to my book where I look at influential 90s musicians and where they are today. On this podcast, we'll delve deeper into a single pivotal moment in the lives of some of the artists I feature in the book, as well as other artists I love and admire. The stories they tell are open, honest, and inspiring. On this episode, our guest is Mick Conroy from Modern English. They have a bona fide classic with “I Melt With You” and 8 albums under the belt, including the one-to punch of their debut “Mesh and Lace” and its follow-up, “After the Snow.” Mick shares his story of getting sober 15 years ago and reforming Modern English with its original members after a long hiatus. Musical credits: Talltell by Blue Dot Sessions Theme song from Jupe Jupe. You can find out more about Modern English at their website here.

Welcome to The B-Side, from The Film Stage. Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we get to talk to the immensely-talented Mark Pellington, the filmmaker behind hits like Arlington Road and The Mothman Prophecies, some of the best music videos ever made, some of the weirdest, coolest stuff ever on MTV, and a slew of other interesting, powerful pieces of work. He's re-cut (and really remade) his directorial debut Going All The Way, starring Jeremy Davies and Ben Affleck, adapted from the Dan Wakefield novel of the same name. Going All The Way: The Director's Edit is currently screening at Brain Dead Studios & Laemmle Glendale in Los Angeles, and will open on Dec. 16th at Quad Cinema in New York with rollout to follow. Visit this link for more info. We discuss everything with Pellington, from his remaking his first feature to his own B-Sides Henry Poole Is Here and I Melt With You. There's talk of his extremely personal short doc Fathers Daze, his Quibi show Survive and the upcoming feature film version. Pellington tells us why he still likes to discover movies on cable, why he'd like to re-cut Henry Poole Is Here if given the chance, and why there is so much flat cinematography & aesthetic sameness in the streaming age. Finally, he tells us a bit about his hopefully-upcoming Magnum Opus Memory Epic Clang. Fingers crossed on the making of that film! This is one of our most in-depth conversations with a filmmaker so far, and we encourage you to listen good and seek out all that Pellington's done.

PUBLIC VERSION. Filmmaker Mark Pellington (ARLINGTON ROAD, THE MOTHMAN PROPHECIES, I MELT WITH YOU, PEARL JAM's “Jeremy” music video) joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen for a discussion about his career that is so epic and fascinatingly detailed that even at 2.5 hours long they barely scratch the surface. That's right, the guys geeked out so hard over Mark's early MTV years that they will need to record a separate episode dedicated to Mark's feature film work! Pull up a front row seat to the birth of MTV as Mark candidly discusses his journey from an entry level assistant position in 1982… to becoming a bona fide network staff member… to producing some of the network's most iconic promotions… and ultimately becoming one of the most revered music video directors of all time working with bands like PEARL JAM, U2, NINE INCH NAILS, BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN, IMAGINE DRAGONS, ALICE IN CHAINS, LINKIN PARK, and the late MICHAEL JACKSON. Dr. Arwen provides “Hollywood Therapy” for a listener dealing with intense frustration and the guys discuss Mark's latest film THE SEVERING (in theaters this weekend)- a cathartic expression of grief inspired by the devastating loss of Mark's wife that is told through the physicality of dance as opposed to a more traditional linear narrative. This captivating conversation is just getting started as Mark is set to return for Part 2 next week! Don't miss your chance to meet Adam Green at HorrorHound Weekend in Cincinnati, OH March 25-27, 2022! For details and convention passes visit: www.HorrorHoundWeekend.com

This charming 1983 low-budget romance far exceeded our expectations and is a new favorite movie of our guest, singer-songwriter Molly Walburn. This episode we discuss scary clown dolls and even scarier chest hair. Plus, Molly performs a lovely cover of “I Melt With You”!
SUPPORT ME ON PATREON WATCH MUSIC is not a GENRE VIDEOS and MORE “I Need A Beat” – “I Can't Live Without My Radio” – “Rock the Bells” – “Going Back to Cali” – “Big Ole Butt” – “Jingling Baby” – “Around the Way Girl” – “Mama Said Knock You Out”. Anyone who knows classic hip-hop – second & third wave in this case – knows LL Cool J. And if you know LL, you probably know at least one of the songs I just listed. (Lemme tell ya, his greatest hits CD is ON POINT.) Well, I happen to have a 12” of an album cut from his first LP, Radio, which is this here selection. Only true LL fans would know these two songs. And to be honest I had to relisten to both cuts to remember what they were. But as soon as I did, it all came flooding back. When you hear a song that you & everyone else has heard a thousand times, the connection to its original ear erodes little by little. I can hear or perform “I Melt With You”, and at this point I no longer FEEL 1983. Still love the song, but it's been totally unmoored from its 80s anchor point. BUT the songs you DON'T hear all the time … those still retain the intense connection to their original time. You feel them as strongly as you did then. These two LL songs do that for me. The sparseness of their production – a la early Run-DMC & Beasties (who were also produced by Rick Rubin) – brings up images of the clothing and the dances. The lyrical content & delivery bring back that feeling of someone speaking directly to me in a way no one else had. I can only feel those things with songs I haven't heard as frequently. The great thing about great music is that, no matter how many times you listen to it, it's always good. And quite often the more you listen to it, the better it gets. It's how I absorb music. It's how I create music. You may have heard one of my songs once. You may have liked it. I can tell you this: Listen again. And again. And even again. You won't just like it. You'll understand it. You might even love it. Here's a song clearly inspired by LL and that era, with a lyrical theme that says the same damn thing: REC - “The Power of Repetition (Everlasting)” (from the album Syncopy for the Weird) What classic hip-hop were you into?

Australian band Real Life have many classic albums, but we thought it would be fun to invite back front man David Sterry (ep 73) to discuss a covers album he did in 2008 of classic 80s synth pop and new wave songs. Not only do you get to hear Real Life's take on standards like "I Melt With You", "Blue Monday", and "Cars" but you also get to hear what these songs and artists meant to him. Real Life also put out a new album recently called Sirens that we discuss as well. (Listen up for how David himself will email you a copy!) David's one of our favorites, so we hope you enjoy it! reallifemusic@outlook.com
Modern English will forever be known as the band that gave us "I Melt With You." Those guys achieved the miraculous feat of recording a song that has been embraced by every generation since it's release in 1982 (contrary to popular belief, the song was not actually a hit originally). In this entertaining conversation, frontman Robbie Grey discusses the spoils of a song that's evergreen and we discuss a lot of the band's output that gets overshadowed including their 2016 album Take Me To The Trees. Modern English are hitting the road this week with The Alarm and Jay Aston's Gene Loves Jezebel, which is sure to be an incredible show. Get to know the guy behind the song! http://modernenglish.me

Director Mark Pellington started off directing videos for Pearl Jam, U2, Michael Jackson and Bruce Springsteen, among many other musical icons (his video for Pearl Jam's "Jeremy" is one of the most popular videos of all time and earned him no end of awards). He moved on to films, directing, among others, Arlington Road, The Mothman Prophecies and I Melt With You, the latter a nihilistic drama about four friends who do more drugs than one might imagine possible and end up...well, you need to see the movie but let's just say the ending is darker than dark. Over the years, Pellington dealt with grief and addiction through the bottle (and the chemicals) but is now three-and-a-half years sober. In this episode, we talk about lying to your therapist about your sobriety, the way great art can help people feel less alone and how a Mayo clinic's comment can change your life, among many other topics.

On today's show I talk to musician Christian Gibbs. Originally from San Diego, Christian has had a pretty varied musical career. He's played lead guitar in the UK band Modern English (who you might remember for their hit "I Melt With You"), played with J.G. Thirlwell's band Foetus, fronted the rock trio Morning Glories, as well as the chamber-rock group Lucinda Black Bear. While Christian has seen a lot of tragedy in his life, he's never allowed it to conquer him, and his latest album - C. Gibbs Sings Motherwell Johnston - is pretty great.This is the website for Beginnings, subscribe on iTunes, follow me on Twitter.
An Amphicar Festival in Ohio, a look back at Wild West Shows, cows disrupting a college beer party, and disgusting food facts about our everyday food choices. Also this week, you’ll hear about: hybrid designer animals; a horse-carriage hijacking where the horse was the hero; an update on the Bearded Lady’s reunion with her long-lost son; and for our musical egress we go back to 1983 with Modern English and their hit, I Melt With You.
Today we talk DVD and Blu Ray releases with Hugo, I Melt With You, Beneath the Darkness, and Justice League: Doom.
Guests include Academy Award winning actor and die-hard Patriots fan Matt Damon, who joins Rich from NFL headquarters in New York. A New England native, Damon chats with Rich about the Patriots chances at a title this season, where he was when he first met Tom Brady, and much much more... Including his new movie "We Bought A Zoo", directed by the super talented Cameron Crowe that hits theatres Friday, December 23rd. Up next is the voice of "Sunday Night Football" on NBC, Al Michaels, who is fresh off fantastic finish in Dallas that saw Tony Romo and the Cowboys let another fourth quarter lead slip away. As always it's an informative chat when Al is in-studio and we look forward to him and Cris Collinsworth on the call for Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis. Our second big time actor of the show phones in fresh off of hosting the Country Music Television awards, when big time Colts fan, Rob Lowe dials up the program. Like millions of Americans, Lowe was suffering from the Fantasy Football blues, after a devastating loss in week 14, at the hands of his very own son no less. But it certainly isn't bad being Rob Lowe these days, as the bestselling author of "Stories I Only Tell My Friends" recently announced he'll be penning a follow up book titled "Love Life" and also has a new film currently in theatres called "I Melt With You" co-starring Jeremy Piven. Like we said, it certainly isn't bad being Rob Lowe. This week's show rounds out with the founder of Pro Football Talk, Mike Florio, who shares his take on the James Harrison hit that nearly knocked out Colt McCoy, and the leagues handling with a 1-game suspension. Florio also shares his thoughts on some of the recent coaching vacancies and where he thinks some of the more high profiled "retired" coaches may land in the offseason. It's a fun, star studded podcast to get you ready for not one, but two games on NFL Network this week.

Brad and Jason lament the fact that there's no holiday celebrating time travel. It's still too early to talk about Christmas movies. "Don't question me on my Thor lore, dude." Hollywood would stop making crappy movies if the American public stopped watching them. Leonardo DiCaprio should maybe stick to simpler roles. Jason likes movies with bad endings.

Chosen Time - New Order Special Note from DJ Tintin: While originally recorded in 2011, I re-recorded this May 28, 2017 to correct a few of the recording glitches from the original post. Since the original post, I also found a remix version of "Heaven Is Waiting" by Danse Society, which I have substituted for the album version. Notes and other random things: Every so often, I go real old school with the old school. The multiplier makes this podcast feeble decrepit school in some ways. Everything you hear in this one is roughly 1981-1985, the exceptions being Underneath the Radar by Underworld and club/radio mainstay Just Like Heaven by The Cure. This episode begins with Duran Duran's Rio, the lead-off track for their album of the same name. The particular version here, the Carnival Version, is very similar to the original, though it contains a few more measures of instrumentation for a nice change of pace to the familiar one any retro lovers will know by heart. Stephen "Tin Tin" Duffy, known for his catchy 80s tune Kiss Me and for his band The Lilac Time, was the original vocalist for the band, though he left after a year figuring they would go nowhere. Simon Le Bon eventually became the frontman and the highly recognizable face of the group, though it's keyboardist Nick Rhodes with his flair for production and keyboard wizardry that really helped define the group's sound. An avid fine artist, he was acutely aware early on of the power that music videos could have on album sales, as any boy on the verge of his teens will recall from the early days of MTV. Though most guys at that age were taunted and teased mercilessly for listening to such flamboyant music, Duran Duran were an early guilty pleasure that found their way into my regular music rotation when I wasn't hanging out with the rabble-rousers. Speaking of Mr. Rhodes, there is a larger connection between Duran Duran and Kajagoogoo, the second band appearing in this episode, than just the beat matching. It was Nick who discovered them and persuaded them to sign with EMI records despite a bidding war among three other record labels. He also helped produce their first album, White Feathers, along with Duran Duran producer Colin Thurston (who has made several appearances here on CRC doing work for Talk Talk and others). That album contained the title track heard here. An interesting side note: Nick also produced Kajagoogoo's biggest hit, Too Shy, which went on to top the charts in 1983. The kicker is that Duran Duran wouldn't have their own number one until later to the chagrin of Nick. I'm certain there are no sour grapes as Duran Duran went on to have a much longer career when all was said and done. Over the past two episodes, the summer edition and this week's new wave edition, you may have seen and heard your fill of Modern English for a while. Both Face of Wood and now the heartbreakingly overplayed I Melt With You come from the band's second album called After the Snow. If I may say so, it is one of my all-time favorite albums. Vocalist Robbie Grey, Gary McDowell, Michael Conroy, Richard Brown, and Stephen Walker put together a sound that resonates with me more than any other: guitars, percussion, excellent vocal timbre and just the right level of keyboard accoutrements. I'm pretty sure that is the reason I fell in love with New Order and mid-80s The Cure as well. Produced by Hugh Jones, who did a lot of work with Echo and the Bunnymen, and released in 1983, After the Snow has great melodies, lovely arrangements and every song hits the sweet spot. And though I Melt With You was re-recorded and re-issued in '90, used in a Burger King ad, a Hershey ad, a Ritz ad, a Taco Bell ad and in cover form by Nouvelle Vague for automaker GMC, and overplayed on 80s flashback radio shows everywhere, if you can somehow transport yourself back in time and try to remember how you felt when you first heard it, you'll recall just how amazing this song still is. A little Modern English trivia: The band formed in Colchester, Essex in 1977 and were originally called The Lepers. Thankfully that didn't stick. Heaven is Waiting from Danse Society represents the pinnacle of the band's early output. Kind of like B-Movie, they suffered from poor timing, ill-conceived decisions from label management and never really were able to capitalize on momentum. While recording the material for the Heaven is Waiting album, the guys sought to work with Ian Broudie, who produced for Echo and the Bunnymen, had his own band Care and later went on to form The Lightning Seeds. Anyway, Ian had other projects in the works and the band instead teamed up with Nigel Gray, who had worked with the Police and Siouxsie and the Banshees. It should have been a good fit, but Gray apparently had a rigid schedule consisting of 10am -5pm sessions. The problem was that even if a session was going well, he would call it a day at 5pm. The result was an album that, according to keyboardist Lyndon Scarfe, "was dull, lifeless, uninspired, and depressed the shit out of us." While the guys did eventually hook up with Brodie to retool the tracks, their Arista label decided to release the Stones cover 2000 Light Years from Home as their third single, something the band fought adamantly to prevent. Despite a video and a huge promotional push, the single failed to chart and it thus began their ultimate demise. Shame, really. As founder of 415 Records, Howie Klein brought bands like Wire Train, Translator, Until December and Red Rockers to the fore. He later went on to become the President of Reprise Records from 1989 until 2001. In this episode, you'll hear one of the ultimate sexual equivocations from the 80s in the track Never Say Never by Romeo Void, another one of Klein's finds. Lead singer Deborah Iyall is Native American and if anyone could look less like how she sounds, Deborah would certainly qualify with her half-spoken, half-sung style. Though Romeo Void disbanded in 1985, she did a couple of solo albums and, having teamed up with songwriter Peter Dunne, is still performing live today, though they haven't quite generated the buzz that she and her band did in 1982 with this tune. That's all for this episode. As always, if you like any of the music you hear, please support the artists. Oh, and in case you were wondering, the image above is from artist Patrick Nagel. His iconic work appeared on the cover of the Rio album by Duran Duran, though an alternate image was used on the 2001 limited edition remastered version. Nagel died in 1984 at the young age of 38. He was found dead in his car after suffering an apparent heart attack. Ironically, he had earlier participated in a 15-minute celebrity Aerobathon to support the American Heart Association. So, on that happy note ... but I'll be back again soon with another episode, so there's that! Thanks again to everyone for your continued support.
