FRED (450 mill.) På jord. Mellem mennesker. I sindet. I hjertet. Så bliver temaet virkeligt ikke meget større. Eller mere håbefuldt ...og åbenbart utopisk. Nok har der været fred i perioder af menneskets hærgen på jorden og forskellige geografiske områder på skift. Både internt i nationer og mellem dem. Men formentlig sjældent, hvis aldrig, på hele jorden samtidigt. Måske undtaget de første par måneder i tidernes morgen. Skaberens optakt? Ondskaben, kynismen, total mangel på empati og en alt for stor villighed til at dræbe. Parret med tvangen om at gøre det pr. ordre i den ulyksalige kommando-struktur. Dertil kommer 'evnen', der desværre er blevet voldsomt forstærket med den industrielle revolution og har skabt våben-industrier, der leverer syge midler til masse-drab. Noget også talløse stakkels civile har mærket følgen af. 450.000.000 (som nævnt i overskrift), er det estimerede tal på samtlige tabte liv i alverdens historiske krige. Så mange unikke liv. Så mange visnede stamtræer og så megen sorg hos efterladte. Så meget gru + lidelse. Men du kan stadig bruge en fredelig lørdag på at lytte til det både smukke og triste tema, der også i nogle tilfælde handler om at finde den individuelle, indre fred. Med: The Archies, Bing & Bowie, Elvis Costello, Depeche Mode, The Doors, Steve Hackett, Imagine Dragons, Imperiet, Kashmir, John Lennon, New Musik, Mike Oldfield, Prince, Paul Simon, Spleen United, Cat Stevens, Taylor Swift, Thompson Twins og U2. Plus Paul McCartney.

We're back, and this time we've gone back 4 whole decades to talk about our favourite songs from 1984, including lots of jazzy indiepop, metal (from extreme to hair), german pop, and the mystery of whether Lionel Richie or Prince's girlfriend keep phoning Rockwell.We've each chosen our 10 favourite songs of the year and sent them over to Colin's wife Helen, who put the playlists together and distributed them so we were each given a playlist of the 20 songs from the other two hosts, along with our own 10. We then ranked the playlists in order of preference and sent them back to Helen, who totalled up the points and worked out the order.She also joined us on the episode to read out the countdown, which we found out as we recorded so all reactions are genuine.Now, admittedly, in parts we're a little bit brutal to some of the songs in the list as we're three separate people with differing music tastes, but please remember that to be in this episode at all the songs have to have been in one of our top 10's of that year.Bands featured in this episode include (In alphabetical order, no spoilers here!) -The Blue Nile, Billy Bragg, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Celtic Frost, Cocteau Twins, Lloyd Cole & The Commotions, Julian Cope, Dio, Echo & The Bunnymen, Everything But The Girl, Husker Du, Iron Maiden, Killing Joke, Kenny Loggins, Manowar, Metallica, Nena, Phil Oakey & Giorgio Moroder, Prefab Sprout, Prince, The Psychedelic Furs, Ratt, Lionel Richie, Rockwell, Sandie Shaw, The Smiths, Swansway, Thompson Twins, Ultravox, and Van Halen!Find all songs in alphabetical order here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7JDSRATZtdBU5yJtD4zbFM?si=256411ee4df7417aFind our We Dig Music Pollwinners Party playlist (featuring all of the winning songs up until now) here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/45zfDHo8zm6VqrvoEQSt3z?si=Ivt0oMj6SmitimvumYfFrQIf you want to listen to megalength playlists of all the songs we've individually picked since we started doing best of the year episodes (which need updating but I plan on doing them over the next month or so), you can listen to Colin's here – https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5x3Vy5Jry2IxG9JNOtabRT?si=HhcVKRCtRhWCK1KucyrDdgIan's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2H0hnxe6WX50QNQdlfRH5T?si=XmEjnRqISNqDwi30p1uLqAand Tracey's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2p3K0n8dKhjHb2nKBSYnKi?si=7a-cyDvSSuugdV1m5md9NwThe playlist of 20 songs from the other two hosts was scored as usual, our favourite song got 20 points, counting down incrementally to our least favourite which got 1 point. The scoring of our own list of 10 is now slightly more complicated in order to give a truer level of points to our own favourites. So rather than them only being able to score as many points as our 10th favourite in the other list, the points in our own list were distributed as follows -1st place - 20 points2nd place - 18 points3rd place – 16 points4th place – 14 points5th place – 12 points6th place – 9 points7th place – 7 points8th place – 5 points9th place – 3 points10th place -1 pointHosts - Ian Clarke, Colin Jackson-Brown & Tracey BGuest starring Helen Jackson-Brown.Playlist compiling/distributing – Helen Jackson-BrownRecorded/Edited/Mixed/Original Music by Colin Jackson-Brown for We Dig PodcastsThanks to Peter Latimer for help with the scoring system.Part of the We Dig Podcasts network along with Free With This Months Issue & Pick A Disc.Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/wedigmusic.bsky.socialInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wedigmusicpcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/wedigpusicpcast/Find our other episodes & podcasts at www.wedigpodcasts.com

The Biden Administration's theme song should be the Thompson Twins's big 80s hit because it perfectly describes their policy of enthusiastically denying reality and making up the facts to suit their talking points. It started with the big lie of 81,000,000 votes and got worse from there. The massive lies of the Biden Administration are also putting the world on the brink of World War 3, as they chaotically and pathologically support Ukraine with over $100,000,000,000 in support while trying to pretend that they do not know anything about the covert biolabs and the crypto money laundering schemes being run at their direction.

The Thompson Twins were one of the greatest bands of the early MTV era, pumping out hit after hit while offering an emotional resonance that transcended the typical chart fare. Singer/songwriter Tom Bailey is still very much at it, making vital new music and touring, and he doesn't shy away from the difficult questions. He's a terrific interview. Here's just some of the many things we touch on in this podcast: The Thompson Twins' barely known origins as a 7-person post-punk outfit that played thoroughly unhinged live shows; How their first huge hit wound up making more than half the band's members redundant; And the incredible ad hoc superstar version of the band that was assembled to play a one-off performance at Live Aid!

We're down to the final three volumes of the CD series Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80s, and either Kevin or Kornflake could still win. (But come on, our money is on Kornflake...) And we've reached the mid-80s, when there was no shortage of new wave hits in the Top 40. So we're talking about acts like Wang Chung, Thompson Twins, Katrina and the Waves, Animotion, Tears for Fears, Bananarama, and Men at Work. It seemed like nothing was off limits on the pop charts. A musical about chess? Sure. Vietnam-era news clips set to a dance beat? Absolutely. The Dream Academy had a hit that sounded like nothing else. Arcadia had a hit that sounded exactly like Duran Duran, and with good reason. There's even a trio of New England-area new wave bands represented here. (We all know 'Til Tuesday, but do you remember Miracle Legion? How about Rubber Rodeo?) So enjoy one last round of new wave madness, and then we can relax. Just like Frankie said.

t took a few years, but Tom Bailey is finally reclaiming the wonderful legacy of the Thompson Twins. The excellent hit makers were everywhere in the 80s, but eventually Tom lost interest in pop music and moved on with then wife Alannah Currie to making dub and trance music under the names Babble and International Observer letting the Twins' flame die out. Thankfully, about 10 years ago he brushed off those old hits, put out a poppy solo album, and has been back in our lives since. He's now joining forced with Thomas Dolby and others on the Totally Tubular tour this summer. We get into all of it including working with Nile Rodgers and Rupert Hine, the late great Matthew Seligman, John uHughes movies, and the stories behind a bunch of songs.

What the Riff?!?

While we may think of the German band the Scorpions as an 80's metal band, they started much earlier - way back in 1965.  Things didn't really come together for the group until the 1978-1992 personnel lineup of Klaus Meine on lead vocals, Rudolph Schenker on rhythm guitar, Mattias Jabs on lead guitar, Francis Buchholz on bass, and Herman Rarebell on percussion.  By the time that the live album entitled World Wide Live came out in 1985, the group had established itself as an international commercial success.Recorded during their 1984 world tour, "World Wide Live" showcases the band at their best, and is a testament to their skill as live performers.  The album was produced by Dieter Dierks, and was initially released as a 2-LP vinyl set, a cassette, and a VHS of tour footage showing off the band's stage presence.  Folks, you got your money's worth when you originally purchased this album!From the high intensity of rockers like "Big City Nights" and "Rock You Like a Hurricane," to the raw emotion of ballads like "Still Loving You," the Scorpions deliver a performance that connects with their audience.  Hearing the live versions gives you a sense of the band in a way that is hard to capture from the studio arrangements.Lynch leads this journey back to 1985, when the Scorpions were rocking the world like a...well...they were rocking the world. Big City NightsThis song from "Love at First Sting" leads off side two of the first LP.  Schenker and Meine composed this one, as they did with many Scorpions songs.  This homage to night life in the city was released as the third single from their studio album, but failed to chart.No One Like YouOriginally appearing on their 1982 album, "Blackout,"  this track deals with infatuation and desire.  Despite its only reaching number 65 on the Billboard Hot 100, it is one of the songs that established the Scorpions as premiere hard rockers of the 80's.Still Loving YouLong before the hair metal ballad became a trope, the Scorpions demonstrated their ability to handle a slower song while still maintaining intensity and raw emotion.  The lyrics are of a guy struggling to convince the girl he has lost to give their love a second chance.Rock You Like a HurricaneThe Scorpions' signature song first appeared on "Love at First Sting" the year before this live album was released.  It reached number 25 on the Billboard Hot 100, a rare Scorpions song to break the top 40.  The track leads off side three of the album.  The risqué video would be a prime exhibit of the PMRC in their quest for more parental control over child access to music videos. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Crazy by Patsy ClineA film called "Sweet Dreams" chronicles the life of country music star Patsy Cline, and was in American theaters in this month. STAFF PICKS:Whole of the Moon by The WaterboysWayne gets the staff picks started this week with the best-selling song from an overlooked British-Irish rock-folk band.  Cerebral and artsy, with lyrics like "I saw the crescent, you saw the whole of the moon," the song is about individuals with rare depth.  The Waterboys reformed in 2000, and can still be seen touring, primarily in Europe.Lay Your Hands On Me by The Thompson TwinsRob brings us a song from the British group that has neither members named Thompson nor twins.  It went to number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Thompson Twins member Tom Bailey has said that the song takes religious ritual as a metaphor for the connection between artist, performer, and artist.It's Only Love by Bryan Adams and Tina TurnerBruce's staff pick is the sixth and final single from Adam's amazingly popular album "Reckless," and also appears on Turner's "Tina Live in Europe" released in 1988.  Loaded with melancholy and anger from a breakup, the song encourages the jilted lover to remember - it's only love.  This song went to number 15 on the Billboard Hot 100.Money for Nothing by Dire StraitsLynch features a signature song from Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits, with a strong helping of Sting to boot.  This Grammy Award-winning track was a staple of MTV, and spent three weeks atop the US pop charts.  The lyrics are a conversation between two working-class men as they watch music videos. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Tears In a Prophet's Dream by Celtic FrostThis Swiss heavy metal bands instrumental takes us out for this week's podcast.

Episode 247: Multiple tidbits this week, including the lineup for the 2025 80's Cruise, and a tribute to Eric Carmen. You Don't Have to Yell! Did you ever notice that multiple 80's song titles include exclamation points in them? What's the deal with that?? Joe and Kari take a look at some songs from Scritti Politti, Donnie Iris, Thompson Twins, and others that beg the listener to SCREAM the song title in excitement. But did these songs EARN the right to use those exclamation points? That's what's up for debate in this episode!Could've Been: In this segment, Joe and Kari each swap out a song from the top 20 for a song in the bottom 20. Stray Cats and Styx take a hike to make room for a southern rock band and a surprisingly Yacht Rock singer.
