Here we take a glancing blow at identifying some of the best albums of the 1980s....in our humble opinion of course. We're not deep diving, so don't judge, we've already handled that. Gotta say that I personally think that Duran Duran's first album should be included. However, the inclusion of Is There Something I Should Know on the reissue we got here in the states when Rio took off is simply too jarring. I always thought The Chauffeur would  have fit nicely on it  

This sober situation, Is breaking my heart open wide. Giving me feelings I've not felt before, And changing the course of my life. ☉ Come join me for a Chiron experience in Greece. Early bird until March 10!

Welcome to week 2 of Black History Month. This week a couple of brilliant films were watched for the first time. Love and Basketball is an early 2000's film that should not be discarded as just another teen romance movie. Just like Purple Rain shouldn't be viewed as just another musical. Sure the acting might be over the top, but that soundtrack is a classic.  Films watched for this episode: Purple Rain (HBO) Love and Baskettball (HBO) Bill Russel: Legend (Netflix) Shaft (HBO) I'm Gonna Git You Sucka (HBO) Blazing Saddles (Rental) Blue Collar (Starz) Blindspotting (Rental)   Follow Andrew on Letterboxd https://letterboxd.com/AndrewMartin/ Email the show: AndrewWatchesFilm@gmail.com

For the first time in seven years, cello rock duo Emil & Dariel made their way back to the Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar platform. The brothers first became noticed when their live performance of Jimi Hendrix's “Purple Rain” became a viral video sensation on YouTube. After that, the duo auditioned for the ninth season of NBC's long-running talent competition America's Got Talent (AGT). Their initial audition received over 3.3 million YouTube views and a standing ovation from veteran AGT judges Howie Mandel and Heidi Klum and former judges Howard Stern and Mel B. Emil & Dariel became part of the Season Nine acts that had the opportunity to perform in front of the nation at Radio City Music Hall, where their covers of songs such as “Satisfaction” and “I Don't Want to Miss a Thing” gave audiences chills. While they were eliminated at the end of the Top 12, Emil & Dariel continued their musical journey. Emil & Dariel released a studio album, Rock Cellos, in 2015 and a live extended play in 2016, which showcased their takes on iconic songs such as “Crazy Train,” “Eye of the Tiger,” “Live & Let Die,” and “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This).” They also shared the stage with many superstars such as Apocalyptica, Flo Rida, Kellie Pickler, Robin Thicke, will.i.am, and 2CELLOS. In the first exclusive podcast interview of 2023, Emil & Dariel opened up about their experience on America's Got Talent: All-Stars, including their reaction to Simon Cowell's harsh commentary. They also spoke about how their fans, fellow musicians, and healthcare professionals rallied around them.

It was the last single to be released from Prince's iconic album Purple Rain and it's the subject of today's THIS DAY ROCKS! With me to talk about this track is big Prince fan and co-host of What's Hot In The Strip Club Podcast, Ilan Fong! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Last week, I watched a particular ‘80s movie for the first time in years, and I had forgotten how much I felt it was largely underwhelming, even overrated, despite its standing as a niche favorite. Without naming the movie, I casually mentioned this in a group chat with a bunch of girlfriends, and they started guessing titles. Half an hour and dozens of guesses later, no one had landed on it, and being the curious goddess I am, I went to Twitter to see how fast it would take for someone to figure out.No one did. At least not initially.And it is a fascinating activity on perspective!For example, I didn't anticipate the sheer number of guessers who apparently believe that flicks like “Ferris Bueller's Day Off” and “The Princess Bride” have a niche fan base.(For those wholly unfamiliar with American Cinema, neither of these movies would ever be described as anything other than universally beloved.)Eventually, someone did guess the correct movie, but because I enjoy occasionally torturing the online masses with very low stakes nonsense like this, I decided to make it interesting.I could practically hear the groans, but much to my surprise, folks began responding in earnest, both donating to LPAC's non-profit research arm and making persuasive arguments for certain films and/or urgent moral pleadings to spare their own beloved ‘80s flick.The always charming Jon Cryer, beloved actor and ‘80s icon, among many other things, poked in to see if it's “Pretty in Pink” (1986). My friend Meredith Salenger—beloved writer, producer, and actress—had her own guess: “Dream a Little Dream” (1989).The brilliant Yvette Nicole Brown, unsatisfied with mere guessing, offered a loving warning that it better not be one of her faves.Amid the celebrity guesses were hundreds of responses that ranged from the patently absurd (“Purple Rain”? Who would ever describe that as less-than-great?) to the intriguing but ultimately incorrect (“Grease 2”).Over the past week, I've occasionally trotted out a range of clues, some of them intended to be helpful but most simply thrown out there for my own amusement at the expense of those playing. Because I am sometimes a cruel queen.Here are the list of clues, in order of my tweeting them over the past week:* ‘80s movie that probably has a niche fan base* I just don't think it's that good* theme: a young person confronting societal pressure * based in high school* Rotten Tomatoes score of more than 50% but less than 90%* one of the leads has been nominated for a Saturn Award for acting during their career* the entire cast was named TIME's Person of the Year in 2006* it was not directed or produced by Steven Spielberg* it was distributed by Paramount* one of the actors cast in this movie was also cast in “Jerry Maguire”* the year this film was released, the San Francisco 49ers made the playoffs (LOL)* released in theaters prior to former Justice Anthony Kennedy beginning his tenure on the Supreme Court* one of the actors who was cast in this movie is well-known for their exceptional voiceover work* released before Jon Bovi's signature hit “Livin' On a Prayer” reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100* released before Ronald Reagan gave a nationally-televised address kinda sorta hinting at his role in the Iran-Contra scandal but ultimately denying any substantial wrongdoingSo, the clues quickly escalated from amusing to outlandish, and I will admit that I've quite enjoyed veering them between unhelpfully broad and tantalizingly specific.That said, incredibly, we've raised more than $5,000 for LPAC. We're already more than halfway there. I have written a review of the movie, which no one has yet seen, and once this dorky little fundraiser of mine for queer women in politics reaches $10k, I'll be sending it out to all of you.Anyone who donates at least $50 can email me the receipt (cmclymer@gmail.com), and I will follow you back on Twitter.Additionally, the first five people who guessed the movie correctly will receive a personal phone call from me congratulating them on their excellent deductive reasoning.Hey, it's for a good cause! I like seeing queer women get elected, and LPAC has done a phenomenal job of that. So, please make a donation, and in the meantime, I'll leave you with one final clue: this movie reveal and accompanying review are guaranteed to break a few hearts.Charlotte's Web Thoughts is a reader-supported publication.

On this episode of The Hollywood Outsider podcast, it's the Best of 2022 as we assemble our most popular topics of 2022 in ONE episode: Controversy, Multiverses, and 80s Movie Soundtracks! First up, we decided it was time to get a bit controversial and weigh in on a few of our unpopular opinions or theories in entertainment news. Is Wes Anderson vastly overrated? Should Star Wars have ended with Return of the Jedi? Is E.T. really an allegory for something deeper, perhaps a love story? All of these and more are discussed and probed as The Hollywood Outsider gets controversial. Then we're taking a journey through the multiverse. Specifically, the concept of multiverses as a storytelling device. While many might think this starts and ends with Marvel's recent slate of films including Spider-Man: No Way Home, in fact, multiverses have been around for decades in various forms. As this backdrop of storytelling explodes in popularity, we take a look at it and discuss if it has a long-term future in modern filmmaking. We conclude with our most popular topic of the year as we decided to look back at the original for inspiration and devote our topic to 80s movie soundtracks! Top Gun, Dirty Dancing, Purple Rain, The Blues Brothers, the list goes on and on and on. What was your favorite soundtrack from the 80s era? Discussed on this episode (0:00 – 49:16) Let's Get Controversial (49:17 – 1:13:34) Journey Through the Multiverse (1:13:35 – 2:05:12) 80s Movie Soundtracks Please support The Hollywood Outsider and gain immediate access to bonus content, including Patreon exclusive podcast content like our Bad Movie Night by visiting Patreon.com/ TheHollywoodOutsider Be sure to join our Facebook Group

Alors que l'internet grand public en est encore à ses balbutiements, Prince lance le NPG MUSIC CLUB en février 2001. Bien avant ce que nous appelons aujourd'hui les plateformes de streaming, il va proposer à son public, la possibilité d'accéder directement à sa musique, moyennant un abonnement mensuel.  En mars 2004, Prince va proposer un « download store » où 2 albums en apparence inédit vont se faire remarquer : The Chocolate Invasion et The Slaughterhouse. 

This week we talk to cognitive neuroscientist and multi-platinum record producer Susan Rogers about her new book This Is What It Sounds Like: What the Music You Love Says About You. In this episode:The science behind how we perceive and process music and how it can affect our emotions and sense of selfHow our brains develop the ability to process sound and how formal music training can help us become "auditory athletes," or people who can analyze sound on a deeper levelThe concept of the "default mode network," a group of brain structures that are active when we are “in our own heads,” and how our favorite records can light up this network and create a private, emotional connection with us. Rogers talks about her time as Prince's full-time recording engineer during which she worked on albums like Purple Rain. (!)

This week, Eric, Sam, and Josh discuss: making checklists, snow shoveling, pizza delivery robots, White Christmas, Holiday Inn, Twin Peaks and Star Wars comparisons, Moonage Daydream, Purple Rain, and more! Plus, they mention the movies screening the week of Friday December 23 - Thursday December 29: The Banshees Of Inisherin, The Pale Blue Eye, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, The Lemon Drop Kid, and Neil Young: Harvest Time!

In part 2 of our discussion of this legendary 80s blockbuster, we make PhD-level discoveries about the meaning of Purple Rain and how the story was told through Prince's music. It turns out that LYRICS MATTER PEOPLE! And when you listen hard, you might understand this movie far differently than you did in 1984. Yes, we all know what Nikki was doing with that magazine but Kristin really missed the mark on what Prince was inviting her to do after that funky time. And why were the doves crying anyway? From the waters of Lake Minnetonka to the stage at First Avenue, we'll walk you scene by scene (and song by song) through this story of redemption, resurrection, and, hopefully, recovery.Watch Lizzo's tribute to Prince hereFollow the PCPS on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and TikTokHelp the PCPS keep the lights on by becoming a supporter on Patreon.

Dearly Beloved ... we are gathered here today to get through this thing called ... a podcast episode -- devoted to one of the most iconic movies of the 1980s: Prince's Purple Rain. It's a movie that conjures up images from the classic Gen X adolescence; if you didn't see Purple Rain, were you even a teenager in the 80s? We'll ask Carolyn and Michelle because together we gathered in Kristin's Greg Brady attic so they could watch this movie FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME! With Kristin as their guide, they dove into the deep end of the Purple Rain pool and got a chance to experience the cultural hurricane they missed the first time around. We'll talk about why they didn't see it, what they missed as a result, plus lots of movie backstory and dish about the actors/non actors who brought this extremely personal story to life. What famous performer left the movie just two weeks before filming began? Who was Apollonia's famous (not-Prince) boyfriend? Why did the studio try to boot Prince from the movie? And who enjoys a Filet-o-fish from time to time? Listen in to find out!Follow the PCPS on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and TikTokSupport the PCPS by becoming a patron on Patreon.

Peaches Christ steps back Behind The Rope.  We have one word - SHOWGIRLS. Yes, that classic mess of a movie or classic brilliant masterpiece, depending upon which side of the fence you fall. Wait, before we get to that and “You Don't Nomi”, the documentary that analyzes the making of Showgirls, the movie itself, the public's reaction, and how it remains a cult classic all these years later, Peaches chats more with us about her life and career that has spanned several decades on the San Francisco, and world, drag scene. Peaches has been producing full blown Midnight Movie drag extravaganzas for years, one of which was Showgirls. The other of which is Purple Rain. Yes, we have yet another Prince fan in the house to discuss one of the biggest musical geniuses of our, or any, generation. We also discuss Peaches' “Spin The Bottle”, a drag-umentary send up of Madonna's “Truth or Dare” chronicling life behind the scenes at Midnight Movie Mass. Speaking of Madonna, Peaches analyzes current day Madonna, her “interesting” social media behavior, and whether she has “lost her way”. On the subject of train wrecks like Showgirls that we just cannot look away from, Peaches chats our favorite subject, Reality TV and all its glory. In other current event news, Peaches discusses, yes we are on an Elizabeth Berkley kick, the just released Saved By The Bell Reboot. Finally, we talk about other “so bad they are good” movies such as Grease 2 and Xanadu, to name a few.

This week, we learn why we love the music we love. Lilah speaks with Susan Rogers, who was a recording engineer for Prince on albums such as ‘Purple Rain'. Now she's a neuroscientist who has studied what music does to the brain. Her book, 'This Is What It Sounds Like', helps us make sense of our own musical preferences. Susan joins us to listen to some music and explain how it affects us. Why is Despacito one of the most listened to songs of all time? Why does one person love techno, and another just not care?

Welcome my BMS Listeners.In my opinion 1984 was one of the most dynamic and bountiful years for music.Top line artists were bigger than ever or achieved their most successful year to date.Artist such as Prince, The Jacksons, Madonna, Bruce Springsteen, Tina Turner and thelist goes on. It was also the year for successful soundtracks to blockbuster movies includingBeverly Hills Cop, Purple Rain, Flashdance, Ghostbusters, Breakin', and others.For me it was a time of exploration of my young adulthood and soaking in everything that life had to offer.Let's reflect back on big hair, shoulder pads, and reminisce about a time that feels so long ago.Playlist1.

Susan Rogers is one of the most successful female record producers of all-time. Yet her journey to working with Prince during his iconic Purple Rain-era and other award-winning musical artists including the Barenaked Ladies and Rusted Root wasn't always clearly laid out. Today, Susan shares how her enthusiasm opened the first doors for her career in music and how she was able to make her mark in a male-dominated industry. Plus, having studied music cognition and psychoacoustics and earning her doctorate in psychology, you'll learn insights about how and why our brains decipher music. If you're looking to deepen your connection to your favorite artists and change the way you listen to music, this conversation is for you.

Luke Evans joins Nikki Bedi and Richard Coles. The Hobbit and Nine Perfect Strangers star left a happy family home in Wales age 16 to pursue his dreams. Luke's big break came after being seen in a London play and he combines acting with a lifelong passion for singing, as he releases his second album. Lucy Gray began collecting discarded shopping lists by accident, as a way to amuse her friends during lockdown. After amassing over 250 of them, they are being displayed in the Museum of Brands in London. Lucy talks about what shopping lists say about us, and how they offer a window into the human condition. Susan Rogers started her career as a recording engineer and worked with Prince on albums including Purple Rain and Parade. After more commercial success in the 1990s she finally had the money to move into academia and is now a professor of Psychoacoustics, looking at why we're drawn to music and what it says about us. Dan Walker chooses his Inheritance Tracks: the theme-tune to Grandstand and Heartache Tonight by the Eagles. Writer and poet, David Toms was born with a rare congenital heart defect - a transposition of the great arteries. As a result, he has had to live with the fear and restriction of not knowing when his heart might give out. What has life been like for him, having to learn to live life as a spectator? A Song For You by Luke Evans is out now. This Is What It Sounds Like: What The Music You Like Says About You by Susan Rogers is out now. Standing on the Shoulders by Dan Walker is out now. Pacemaker by David Toms is out now. Producer: Claire Bartleet

Record producer, audio engineer and professor Dr. Susan Rogers' remarkable recording career included working as a staff engineer for Prince in his Purple Rain heyday, not to mention projects with David Byrne, Barenaked Ladies and Crosby, Stills & Nash. After two decades in the business, she shifted her focus to the science of music cognition, and she brings her extensive knowledge of all things audio to the new book This Is What It Sounds Like: What The Music You Love Says About You, digging into concepts including beat deafness, authenticity, musical visualization, Prince's insane charisma, turning down Lou Reed, music and identity, the outsider magic of The Shaggs and Snowball the dancing cockatoo.

She was at the helm of Prince's biggest albums including Purple Rain, Around the World in a Day, Parade, and Sign O' The Times. Susan Rogers sits down with Funkatopia Live to answer questions she probably hasn't answered before. It's a show for the ages as we discuss production techniques, her new book, the neuroscience of music, and much more LIVE.

The guys are joined by repeat revisitors Shawn Brown and Kasey Anderson for not one but two episodes about the Seattle band “Brad.”  This episode we'll tackle Brad's first album “Shame.” Plenty of discussion about Shawn's new EP “The Rain Parade,” trying to figure out the music industry, the Mariners, “I'm 42 and not gonna have a Tik Tok,” remove April 5th from the calendar, the genius of Shawn Smith, Purple Rain, unfinished songs, and we challenge Kasey to cover some Brad songs.  Check out Kasey at:https://www.kaseyandersonmusic.com/Check out Shawn at:https://www.shawnbrownmusic.com/Check out other episodes at RecordsRevisitedPodcast.com, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Castbox, iHeartMedia, Google Podcasts and Spotify.

"All I want to do is graduate from high school, go to Europe, marry Christian Slater, and die." It's Vampire Month, babes! Before Sarah Michelle Gellar played the Buffy the Vampire Slayer we all know and love, there was the movie version. And guess what, the ‘fits were just as fabulous, thanks to costume designer Marie France (who we talked about in our Purple Rain episode)!  Although the fashion may not get as much love as its successor, real ones know THAT PROM LOOK in this 1992 film. Plus, Blaire gives us an update on her journey through the Twilight franchise and her newfound Lord of the Rings obsession, while Marie talks about her spooky trip to Salem, Massachusetts. Tune in now to hear us discuss the delish ‘90s does ‘70s prints and neon spandex in Buffy, and more! For visuals of the costumes, follow us on Instagram at @fishnetflixpod and TikTok @fishnetflix !

When she was a kid, Sheila E. wanted to be an astronaut. But instead, she became the "Queen of Percussion". Go figure. The least we could do was invite her to join our crew. On this special flight to the Drum Moon, Queen Sheila takes us through her legendary decades-long career, her iconic David Letterman stiletto drum solo, her gutsy comeback on the very first night of Prince's "Purple Rain" tour, the disrespect in music monetization, and what it takes to keep your passion alive.

Why do you fall in love with some music, and not with other music? And why do those you love sometimes fall in love with music you don't? Susan Rogers, a record-producer–turned–brain-scientist, explains why, taking us on a journey into the science and the soul of music that reveals why your favorite songs move you. Rogers also shares her personal story—she began as an audio tech in Los Angeles, broke through as Prince's chief engineer for Purple Rain, and then continued to create other number 1 hits to become one of the most successful female record producers ever. Rogers, currently a professor of cognitive neuroscience, raises musical self-awareness. She explains that we each possess a unique “listener profile” based on our brain's natural response to the seven key dimensions of a song. Are you someone who prefers lyrics or melody? Do you like music “above the neck” (intellectually stimulating), or “below the neck” (instinctual and rhythmic)? Whether your taste is esoteric or mainstream, Rogers will guide you to recognize your own musical personality and to describe your own unique taste. Like most of us, Rogers is not a musician, but demonstrates how all of us can be musical simply by being active, passionate listeners. Rogers also will take us behind the scenes of record-making, using her insider status to illuminate the music of Prince, Frank Sinatra, Kanye West, Lana Del Rey and many other artists. She shares records that changed her life, contrasts them with those that appeal to others, and encourages you to think about the records that define your own identity. Join us and then refresh your playlists, deepen your connection to your favorite artists, and change the way you listen to music.  MLF ORGANIZER George Hammond and Anne W.

Most everyone recognizes Prince's masterpiece "Purple Rain," the Grammy Award-winning album engineered by Susan Rogers. But do you know why you love this record? In her new book "This is What It Sounds Like," Rogers explains that we all have a unique "listener profile," determined by how we respond to seven musical elements, such as lyrics, melody and timbre. Rogers joins us to explain what the music we love says about us. Guests: Susan Rogers, cognitive neuroscientist and a professor, Berklee College of Music; multiplatinum record producer; sound engineer for Prince's; recipient of the Music Producer's Guild Outstanding Contribution to U.K. Music award.

When you have to take a test and you don't know the answer, the conventional advice is to go with your first answer. A lot of people believe that – but is it true? This episode begins with some interesting evidence that may help you the next time you take a test.  https://www.spring.org.uk/2012/02/multiple-choice-tests-why-sticking-with-your-first-answer-is-probably-wrong.php Music is such an important part of life for so many of us. Most of us have a favorite song or band or type of music. Listening to music can make you happy or sad or transport you back in time. Why does music affect us the way it does? Joining me to discuss that is Susan Rogers who was the chief engineer on Prince's Purple Rain album as well as other hit records. In fact, she is one of the most successful female record producer of all time. She is now a professor of neuroscience and author of the book This is What It Sounds Like: What the Music You Love Says About You (https://amzn.to/3ROjCGg) You often don't notice it, but you are constantly saying things to yourself – often about yourself. And often the things you say aren't very nice. Seldom are we telling ourselves how wonderful we are. Instead, we are often self-critical. Why is that? Why do we tend to think so negatively about ourselves and the world around us? Here to explain is psychotherapist Katie Krimer, author of the book, Sh*t I Say to Myself: 40 Ways to Ditch the Negative Self-Talk That's Dragging You Down (https://amzn.to/3S7miOD) Do you know the law when you come up on a school bus picking up or dropping off students? It turns out the area right around a stopped school bus can be very dangerous. In fact, driving around kids walking to and from school is always risky.
