How do you guys find such weird stuff on Youtube. You must be looking for weird content that's for sure!

While on my way to work last Friday Classic FM played an extract from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite. For rest of day I couldn't get 'Everyone's a Fruit and Nutcase' out of my head:

Since you're going all historic, here's a reboot of VKTRS with the original Buggles performing it in 2005.

But in reality there is still the need for music on the radio. Great song though and actually a popular song that really made you think about the future.
And how refreshing to see mature female backing singers on stage not dressed as tarts...

With regards that later performance of VKTRDS... a lot of people involved. More than necessary I would imagine.
Did the 'The Buggles' always have that many?

The Buggles were a duo but the backing singers and some of the musicians were involved with the song.
Funnily the small orchestra is part of the arena show and wasn't present during the original version ;-)

Funnily the small orchestra is part of the arena show and wasn't present during the original version ;-) I've commented before, I think on here, that the best guitarist (not necessarily the most talented or technical, but for the overall impact and unexpectedness of his performance) I've seen live was Isaac Guillory. Whilst at the time he was on an extended circuit of the UK folk clubs (having settled in England) he had an interesting life and musical history, including working as a much in-demand "session player", both in the studio and on the road, for some very well known acts. Amongst those unexpectedly listed is The Buggles. A very talented man, and thoroughly nice person, now sadly no longer with us. Any of the clips on Youtube would give an idea of his capabilities, but the second track on this (starting at around 3:00) gives an idea of just what he could achieve wth a small portable amp, no backing and no tape loop.... |

Jo whom I met socially as sister of my long standing workmate Jax (our professional paths crossed and re-crossed repeatedly over years 1989 to 2013) introduced me to the Dubliner's track The Fields of Athenry. Unlike them I've no Irish heritage but I love music with an historic or social commentary so added it to my Eclectic playlist of tunes.
Came up last week on way home form work since when it won't leave my head.....

Learned that on at their London concert in RAH 5 years ago. |

If you think of any more, by all means keep them to yourself.

Given my daughter's performance in Sister Act, we have been walking round the house singing 'Take me to Heaven'. Bloody thing won't leave my brain.
