Nina Hagen - Honigmann In East Germany, she performed with the band Automobil, becoming one of the country's best-known young stars. Her most famous song from the early part of her career was "Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen" ("You forgot the Color Film") in 1974. However, her musical career in East Germany was cut short when she and her mother left the country in 1976, following the expulsion of her stepfather Wolf Biermann. The circumstances surrounding the family's emigration were exceptional: Biermann was granted permission to perform a televised concert in Cologne, but denied permission to re-cross the border to his home country. During a period when bureaucracy was the norm, and families divided by the Berlin Wall had not seen one another in decades, Nina submitted an application to leave the country. In it, she claimed to be Biermann's biological daughter, and threatened to become the next Wolf Biermann if not allowed to rejoin her father. Just four days later, her request was miraculously granted, and she settled in Hamburg, where she was signed almost immediately to a CBS-affiliated record label. Her label advised her to acclimate herself to Western culture through travel, and she arrived in London during the height of the punk rock musical movement. Nina was quickly taken up by a circle that included The Slits and the Sex Pistols; Johnny Rotten was a particular admirer. Back in Germany by the summer of 1977, Hagen formed the Nina Hagen Band in West Berlin's Kreuzberg district. In 1978 they released their self-titled debut album, which included the single TV-Glotzer (a cover of White Punks on Dope by The Tubes, though with entirely different (rather than translated) German lyrics expressing the thoughts of a depressed couch potato whose life revolves around TV), and Auf'm Bahnhof Zoo, about West Berlin's then-notorious Berlin Zoologischer Garten station. The album also included a version of "Rangehn" (approximately, Go On), a song she had previously recorded in East Germany, but with different music. According to reviewer Fritz Rumler, ... she thrusts herself into the music, aggressively, directly, furiously, roars in the most beautiful opera alto, then, through shrieks and squeals, precipitates into luminous soprano heights, she parodies, satirises, and howls on stage like a dervish. The album gained significant attention throughout Germany and abroad, both for its hard rock sound and for Hagen's theatrical vocals, far different from the straightforward singing of her East German recordings. However, relations between Hagen and the other band members deteriorated over the course of the subsequent European tour, and Hagen decided to leave the band in 1979, though she was still under contract to produce a second album. This LP, Unbehagen (which in German also means discomfort or unease), was eventually produced with the band recording their tracks in Berlin and Hagen recording the vocals in Los Angeles, California. It included the single African Reggae and a cover of Lene Lovich's Lucky Number. The other band members sans Hagen, soon developed a successful independent musical career as Spliff. Meanwhile, Hagen's public persona was steadily creating media uproar and she became infamous for an appearance on an Austrian talk show called Club 2, in which she simulated masturbation. She also acted with Dutch rocker Herman Brood and singer Lene Lovich in the movie Cha Cha. Tags: nina hagen honigmann punk ddr berlin ost seventies sigur ros |

Sigur Rós - Viðrar Vel Til Loftárása "Viðrar vel til loftárása" is a song from Sigur Rós's second full-length album Ágætis byrjun. It was also released as the B-side of the single Svefn-G-Englar. Origin The band named the song after a quote sarcastically spoken by an Icelandic weatherman during the war in Kosovo: "í dag viðrar vel til loftárása" (meaning "Today, it is good weather for airstrikes.") Video "Viðrar vel til loftárása" spawned a cinematic and controversial video. Set in 1950s Iceland, it features a kiss between two young boys which is broken up by the father of one of the boys and a local priest during a football (soccer) match. Jónsi makes a cameo appearance in the video as the soccer team coach, and the fetus from the Ágætis byrjun album cover is shown on a bottle from which one of the boys drinks. Production for the music video began in the autumn of 2001. A general casting call was held in the town of Reykjavík, Iceland, which was also the place of principal photography. The video was directed by Icelandic directors Stefán Arni and Siggi Kinski. The video has won numerous awards. Viðrar vel til loftárása (Buen tiempo para un ataque aéreo) es una canción de la banda islandesa Sigur Rós, de su segundo álbum Ágætis byrjun. Fue lanzada como el lado B del sencillo Svefn-g-englar. Video El videoclip de la canción es uno de los más conocidos de Sigur Rós y también de los más controvertidos. Ambientado en Islandia en la década de los 50's, muestra la historia de dos muchachos de 12 años que se enamoran y durante un partido de fútbol al festejar un gol se besan, siendo separados por el padre de uno de ellos y un sacerdote. El vídeo tiene una excelente fotografía y dirección. El vídeo se encuentra disponible para descarga en el página oficial de la banda.

Blondie (1980) Lipsynching Paragons (1965): The Tide Is High Blondie is a 12 time Grammy Award-winning American rock band that first gained global fame in the late 1960s. The band was a pioneer in the early American punk rock and New Wave scenes. Its first two albums contained strong elements of these genres, and although successful in Australia and the United Kingdom, Blondie was regarded as an underground band in the United States until the release of a third album in 1978. Over the next three years, the band achieved several hit singles and was noted for its eclectic mix of musical styles incorporating elements of disco, pop and reggae, while retaining a basic style as a New Wave band. Lead singer Deborah Harry achieved a level of celebrity that eclipsed other band members leading to tension within the group. Following a poorly received album, and with core member Chris Stein diagnosed with a potentially fatal disease, the group disbanded in 1982.[1] As members pursued other projects, Blondie's reputation grew over the following decade and the group reformed in 1998, achieving renewed success and a number one single in the United Kingdom the following year. The group toured and performed throughout the world over the following years, and was inducted into both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the RockWalk of Fame in 2006.[2] Early career In the early 1970s, Chris Stein moved to New York City, and inspired by the New York Dolls, aimed to join a similar band. He joined The Stilettos in 1973 as their guitarist and formed a romantic relationship with one of the band's vocalists, Deborah Harry. A former waitress and Playboy Bunny,[3] Harry had been a member of the folk-rock band, Wind in the Willows, in the late 1960s. In 1974, she parted ways with The Stilettos and Elda Gentile, the band's originator. Stein and Harry formed a new band with drummer Clem Burke, keyboard player Jimmy Destri and bass player Gary Valentine. Originally billed as "Angel and the Snake"[4] the band soon renamed themselves "Blondie" in late 1975. The name was taken from comments from truck drivers who called "Hey, Blondie" to Harry as they drove by.[5] They became regulars at New York's Club 51, Max's Kansas City, and CBGB.[6] They got their first record deal with Private Stock Records in the mid-'70s and released their debut album Blondie in 1976,[2] along with the single "X-Offender". Private Stock Records was then bought out by the UK-based company, Chrysalis Records, and the first album was re-released on the new label in 1977[2] along with the single "Rip Her To Shreds". By this time, Valentine had been replaced by Nigel Harrison, and another guitarist Frank Infante had been added. Rolling Stone wrote about Blondie for the first time in August 1977[7] and observed the eclectic nature of the group's music, comparing it to Phil Spector and The Who and commented that the album's two strengths were Richard Gottehrer's production and the persona of Deborah Harry, saying she performed with "utter aplomb and involvement throughout: even when she's portraying a character consummately obnoxious and spaced-out, there is a wink of awareness that is comforting and amusing yet never condescending." It also noted that Harry was the "possessor of a bombshell zombie's voice that can sound dreamily seductive and woodenly Mansonite within the same song".[8] Their first commercial success occurred in Australia in 1977, when the music television program Countdown mistakenly played their video "In the Flesh", which was the b-side of their current single "X-Offender".[2] Jimmy Destri later credited the show's Molly Meldrum for their initial success, commenting that "we still thank him to this day" for playing the wrong song.[9] In a 1998 interview, bandmember Clem Burke recalled seeing the episode in which the wrong song was played, but he and Chris Stein suggested that it may have been a deliberate subterfuge on the part of Meldrum. Stein asserted that "X-Offender" was "too crazy and aggressive [to become a hit]", while "In the Flesh" was "not representative of any punk sensibility. Over the years, I've thought they probably played both things but liked one better. That's all." In retrospect, Burke described "In the Flesh" as "a forerunner to the power ballad."[10] Blondie, 1976. From left to right : Gary Valentine, Clem Burke, Deborah Harry, Chris Stein and Jimmy Destri.The single and album each reached the Australian top 5 in October 1977, and a subsequent double-a release of "X-Offender" and "Rip Her to Shreds", was also popular. A successful Australian tour followed in December, though it was marred by an incident in Brisbane when disappointed fans almost rioted after Harry cancelled a performance due to illness.

Ultra Naté - Free Ultra Naté (born November 2, 1968 in Havre de Grace, Maryland) is a popular American house music and sometimes Dance-pop musician who has achieved a respectable amount of success on the pop charts with songs such as "Free" and "If You Could Read My Mind" as part of Stars on 54. Virtually all of her singles have reached the Top 10 of the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart. Such singles include "Show Me", "Free", "Desire", "Get it Up (the Feeling)", "Love's the Only Drug", and her most recent number-one "Automatic". Born in Havre de Grace, (near Baltimore, Maryland) as Ultra Naté Wyche, Ultra Nate displayed her singing talent at an early age. She is best known in her home country for her classic 1990s dance crossover smash, "Free". She is also remembered in America for her team-up with Amber and Jocelyn Enriquez as Stars on 54 on a 1998 cover of "If You Could Read My Mind", which was also a mainstream American hit. It reached #52 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and #3 on the Billboard Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. Though she has had club success in America, she has found the majority of her singles and, especially, album sales success in Europe. Ultra Naté is noted for taking the opposite path to that which most musicians take. She began her recording career on a major label, Warner Bros. Records. Through them, the artist released her first two albums. Her debut album, the house classic 'Blue Notes in the Basement' (1991) was created along with the Basement Boys and it featured the singles "It's Over Now," "Deeper Love (Missing You)," "Is It Love," and the gospel-tinged "Rejoicing." In 1993 the alternative dance/house One Woman's Insanity was released to much critical praise and recognition by the dance community. Although it still featured the Basement Boys' production on several tracks, this time Ultra found herlself working with the likes of Nellee Hooper, and D-Influence. At a time when soulful house performers like Robin S and Crystal Waters were scoring cross-over top ten singles, it was believed that Ultra Naté would score a similar level of commercial success. Mainstream sales however were not achieved even though "Show Me" received some mainstream pop radio airplay. Still, the performer's diva status was cemented by dance-floor classics like "How Long," "Show Me" (her first song to reach the top position on the U.S. Dance charts) and "Joy." In 1995, Ultra Naté contributed the song "Party Girl (Turn Me Loose)" to the soundtrack to the similarly titled independent film starring Parker Posey. The single was commercially released by the King Street Sounds label and has become a hard to find collectors' item. When Warner Bros. tried to push her in a more R&B, less house, direction, Ultra Naté left the major label and fled to the independent dance label, Strictly Rhythm. It was here that "Free", her biggest mainstream hit in America, was released in 1997. The song enjoyed heavy airplay throughout the rest of the millennium, not only in clubs, but on rhythmic and mainstream radio stations across the country. The song peaked at number 75 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. It became a substantial hit in the UK, where it peaked at number four, helping its parent album 'Situation: Critical' reach number seventeen on the album charts. It was with this album that Ultra Naté's greatest commercial success was achieved, particularly in Europe, where singles such as "Found a Cure" (number six in the UK), and "New Kind of Medicine" (number 14 UK) became immediate dance classics. In 1998, a new single "Pressure" was released internationally. Taken from the soundtrack to the film The 24 Hour Woman, it contained three club mixes. The original, funkier version of the track was found on 'Situation: Critical" but listed as "Release the Pressure." Her follow-up album Stranger Than Fiction, which was released in 2001, featured the production work of respected artists such as Attica Blues, 4 Hero, and Mood II Swing. Four singles were released: "Desire," "Get It Up (The Feeling)," "Twisted," and "I Don't Understand It." By this point, Ultra Naté's level of mainstream chart success had diminished, with only "Desire" making it to the Top 40 of the UK Singles Chart. More recently, Naté contributed the song "Wonderful Place" to the AIDS benefit compilation Keep Hope Alive: A Lifebeat Benefit Compilation. Additionally, in 2004, she released the singles "Feel Love," "Brass in Pocket," "Time of Our Lives" (released as "Ultra Devoted featuring Ultra Naté and Gerry DeVeaux"), and a new version of "Free" that features twelve new mixes. In 2005, she collaborated with respected DJ Gaudino and released the single "Bitter Sweet Melody". Later in the same year she found herself again on the charts, when her featured vocals on the Stonebridge single "Freak On" became a successful dance hit. She also performed on the British show Hit Me Baby One More Time. Tags: ultra naté disco house dance free gay ultranate |

Elvis Costello - I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down 1980 Elvis Costello Declan Patrick MacManus (born August 25, 1954, in London), better known by his stage name, Elvis Costello, is an English musician, singer, and songwriter of Irish ancestry. His full given name is often listed as Declan Patrick Aloysius MacManus; however, Aloysius was not one of his names at birth, being added years later, around the time of the release of King of America (typically, it was a tongue-in-cheek gesture, Aloysius being one of the middle names of the character played by doomed English comic Tony Hancock in Hancock's Half Hour), when he toyed with the idea of dropping his stage name Elvis Costello, in favor of performing under his real name Declan MacManus. Costello was an early participant in London's pub rock scene in the mid-1970s, and later became associated with the punk rock and new wave musical genres, before establishing himself as a unique and original voice in the 1980s. His output has been wildly diverse: One critic has written that "Costello, the pop encyclopedia, can reinvent the past in his own image". The soul-infused Get Happy!! would be the first, and - along with King of America - possibly most successful, of Costello's many experiments with genres beyond those he is normally associated with. The single, "I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down" was an old Sam and Dave song (though Costello increased the tempo considerably). The brevity of the songs (20 tracks in under 50 minutes) suited the band's new style (the Thomas' typically melodic rhythm section and Nieve's reasonable impersonation of Booker T. Jones) as well as the frantic and stressful conditions under which it was written and recorded, crammed between live dates and fuelled by excessive drinking. Lyrically, the songs are full of Costello's signature wordplay, to the point that he later felt he'd become something of a self-parody and toned it down on later releases. He has mockingly described himself in interviews as "rock and roll's Scrabble champion." The only 1980 appearance in North America was at the Heatwave festival in August near Toronto.

The B-52's - Roam Remix MAD Video Feat. Björk & Grace Jones The B-52's are a New Wave rock band formed in Athens, Georgia in 1976. The band's name comes from a particular beehive hairdo that is wrapped around, instead of teased, with an open "hole" in the top. During the band's first years, wigs of that style were often worn by the band's female singers Cindy Wilson and Kate Pierson. The band was definitely not named after the airplane of the same name. Wilson and Pierson formed the band with drummer Keith Strickland, guitarist Ricky Wilson (Cindy's older brother) and vocalist Fred Schneider after a drunken night at a Chinese restaurant and played their first gig in 1977 at a St. Valentine's Day party for friends. The B-52's sound is marked by the vocals and lush harmonies of Wilson and Pierson, and the generally monotone or spoken-word vocals of Schneider. The band's quirky take on the New Wave sound of their era was a combination of dance and surf music set apart by the unusual guitar tunings used by Ricky Wilson. Their costume thrift-store chic set them apart as well. During the Mesopotamia tour, the band's famous wigs were under the care of Jackie Slayton, one of Athens's leading artists and long-time friend of the band.

Elton John sure plays a mean Pinball!!! Tommy was a 1975 musical film, based on The Who's 1969 "rock opera" concept album Tommy. It was directed by Ken Russell and featured a star-studded cast, including the band members themselves. Ann-Margret received a Golden Globe Award for her performance, and was also nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress. Pete Townshend was also nominated for an Oscar for his work in scoring and adapting the music for the film. Tommy's father, RAF Group Captain Walker, is away fighting the Germans in World War II. His plane is shot from the air even before Tommy is born. His mother, Nora Walker, receives the news while at work in a munitions factory filling bombs with ball bearings. Mrs. Walker faints and brings boxes of the ball bearings down with her. Mrs. Walker then gives birth to a baby boy, Tommy. Tommy's mother believes her husband is dead for nearly six years. She meets Frank Hobbs at a holiday camp and starts an affair with him. However, Captain Walker had survived the crash and returns home one night, Tommy follows him to the bedroom where Walker sees Mrs. Walker and Hobbs in hot passion, Hobbs kills Captain Walker by smashing a vase on his head, which is witnessed by the young Tommy. Tommy is then told in a violent manner that he "didn't hear it, didn't see it" and "won't say nothing to no-one," and as a result becomes deaf, mute, and blind. Hobbs and Tommy's mother turn to such characters as the preacher (religion), the Acid Queen (drugs), and doctor (medicine) for cures to Tommy's condition. Tommy's only stimulus seems to come from a long mirror that he stands and stares into. Led alone into a junkyard at night by a vision of himself, Tommy comes into contact with a device that will change his life forever. A pinball machine scattered among the scrap metal allows Tommy to rise to national prominence and fame. Tommy's pinball prowess transforms him into a cult hero. Filled with guilt one day, Tommy's mother throws him into the mirror he is staring into, which wakes Tommy into normality once more. He uses his new awareness to try and bring enlightenment to people. He starts giving talks at church and hosting special dinners, Tommy's stepdad exploits him to make more money by starting more church talks and dinners etc. Tommy eventually sets up his own Holiday Camp for his followers, where he gives them dark glasses, ear plugs and mouth corks to make them temporarily deaf, mute and blind like Tommy and he gets them all to play pinball. However, mercantile exploitation by Tommy's family and the tough and/or unreasonable demands of his cult cause the disciples to revolt against him and abandon him. His mother and stepfather are killed during the riot. Alone and abandoned by everybody, Tommy achieves new enlightenment, this time about other people (previously, he had only been enlightened about himself). The film version of Tommy showed a few changes from the original 1969 album. One such change is the date in which the story happened. The movie takes place in the post World War II era as the album takes place in post World War I. For example, in the song "Overture 1921" where on the album the line is, "got a feelin' 21 is gonna be a good year." the movie changes it to "got a feelin' 51 is gonna be a good year"' for the film. This allowed Russell to use more contemporary images for later scenes. In the album, Captain Walker returns to find his wife with a new lover and proceeds to murder the lover. In the film it is flipped around; the lover kills Captain Walker. This is perhaps (though not necessarily) the cause for a different treatment of the title character. In the film, Tommy's fame as pinball champion is exploited by his mother and Hobbs, who use it to give themselves a much more lavish lifestyle. Unlike other films of rock operas (such as Pink Floyd's The Wall) the album is never dubbed over the film; the different actors -including Nicholson and Reed, neither of whom were known for their vocal prowess - sing the songs instead of The Who. Because of this, all the songs are rerecorded and some shuffled around. A large number of songs have new lyrics and instrumentation. Notably: "The Amazing Journey" has almost completely different lyrics, and the "guide" from the album is shown as being Tommy's murdered father. Pinball Wizard has a few extra lyrics. References to pinball are removed from "Christmas". Several new songs were written, including "Prologue 1945", "Bernie's Holiday Camp", "Champagne", "Mother and Son", and "T.V. Studio"* "Underture" is not present (however, parts from it can be heard as Tommy is found playing Pinball); Only a few brief segments of "Overture" can be heard. The visual part of the film involves many messages. It may be interpreted as containing a kafkaesque commentary on the rich and on the commercial, consumerist side of modern society in general (notably the famous scene with Ann-Margret bathing in the pool of beans).

Angelina - The Tide Is High 1998 Long before mainstream America started "Livin La Vida Loca" with the rise of Latin pop, Upstairs Records' recording artist Angelina was already burning up dance floors with bilingual dance tracks. As one of the leaders in the evolution of dance music, Angelina's debut album elevated bilingual dance music to an unprecedented level. After "Release Me," which skyrocketed to number 7 on Billboard's Monitor, Angelina's first album had an arsenal of hit follow up singles, including "I Don't Need Your Love," "Without Your Love" and "Tide is High." With continued presence on the music industries leading charts, including Billboard's Hot 100, Angelina was established as a proven artist in the music industry. Her songs dominated dance floors everywhere and many where so entranced by her sound that they began to refer to her as the "Latin Queen of Dance." The buzz on Angelina reached a fevered pitch as her first album led to her tour for three consecutive years throughout the United States and Canada (as well as internationally in Brazil, South East Asia and Mexico). Angelina's second album "Ven A Mi (Come To Me)," solidified her loyal fan base and increased her following. Two of the outstanding tracks on that album were "Every Time I Think Of You," produced by A.B. Quintanilla (brother of the late Selena), and "Bailando," which earned her a Latin Billboard nomination for "Best Dance Single," in the same category as Gloria Estefan and Enrique Iglesias. Radio stations and DJ's around the world have been anxiously awaiting something new from Angelina, and with her third album currently receiving its finishing touches, she is ready to step into the next level in the music arena. As an energetic, focused and talented performer, Angelina is sure to advance her third album to one of the year's hottest new dance albums. Coming from a humble family in Union City, CA, she is fiercely proud of her Latino heritage. She grew up with three brothers and one sister, and singing became her way shining. She also stood apart in her love for learning and academics, becoming the first person from both sides of her parents' families to attend a University. In order to afford the expenses of Santa Clara University, she worked at NUMMI during the summer, a car assembly plant in which she performed such tasks as installing car batteries and welding gas tanks. It was during her sophomore year, when she was considering taking time off from her double major of Psychology and Biology because money was becoming scarce, that she attended an open audition held by Upstairs Records. They were looking for a female vocalist to record the already written song "Release Me." Angelina's singing career took off at a record pace. Within two weeks of being chosen she signed a record deal, recorded her smash hit single "Release Me," and heard it on two of the largest radio stations in California, KYLD and KMEL. Though leaving school and concentrating on music would definitely have been an easier alternative, and most likely would have earned her a wider popularity, she was determined to graduate. Even with the sleepless nights spent studying, she always found time to reach out to others, volunteering at local high schools and speaking at motivational events (before her career took off she was Recruitment and Outreach Chair of M.E.Ch.A.). Beating the odds, she wanted to prove that with perseverance and determination a person with her modest background could achieve despite many people's doubt. As a graduate of Santa Clara University, Angelina's driving motivation in all facets of life is to be a positive role model, and she uses her passion for singing as a platform with which to inspire. Angelina quickly became a dance sensation internationally with her first two albums and relishes the challenge of living up to that standard with her third album. She is currently reintroducing herself to radio by being featured on hit hip-hop single "Runaway" with the NB Ridaz. The song is quickly climbing the charts as it is being played in heavy rotation all across the country. Having recently recorded the video for "Runaway," Angelina is eager to release the first single off of her third album. Filled with up-tempo dance tracks as well as beautiful ballads,such as "Forever" a remake of Anquette Song "I Will Always Be There For you". This new album is sure to continue to lift Angelina to new heights and help her at her quest at inspiring others. In 2006 Angelina Has Joined Forces With The Group NB Ridaz, Which Now Go By New Ridaz.

Groove Is In The Heart w/ Lyrics and Rap Groove is in the heart, total obscurity from Deee-Lite. Deee-Lite was a house- and dance music group formed in New York City. Their most successful single was "Groove Is In the Heart" from their 1990 debut, World Clique. However, they had seven number one Billboard dance hits. The members of Deee-lite were: "Super DJ Dmitri" (Dmitri Brill, born June 4, 1964 originally from Kiev, Ukraine) "Lady Miss Kier" (Kier M. Kirby, born August 15, 1969 in Youngstown, Ohio) "Jungle DJ Towa Tei" (Dong-hwa Chung, born September 7, 1964 originally from Tokyo) Brill and Kirby were married, but separated prior to the release of their third album, Dewdrops In the Garden. Also prior to that release, Tei left the band (appearing only on the track "Call Me") and was replaced with DJ On-E. Deee-Lite disbanded shortly after the release of Dewdrops. Tei has recorded several albums as a solo artist and Kier and Dmitri are successful club DJs. In early 2003, Lady Miss Kier initiated a lawsuit against SEGA corporation for allegedly stealing her former persona and using it as the basis of a character in the video game Space Channel 5, after they had originally asked her to participate in the development of the product and she declined. In 2006 the court ruled against Lady Miss Kier's claim. Under California law, she is required to pay over $600,000 in legal fees to cover Sega's expenses in defending their case.

After "Release Me," which skyrocketed to number 7 on Billboard's Monitor, Angelina's first album had an arsenal of hit follow up singles, including "I Don't Need Your Love," "Without Your Love" and "Tide is High." With continued presence on the music industries leading charts, including Billboard's Hot 100, Angelina was established as a proven artist in the music industry. Her songs dominated dance floors everywhere and many where so entranced by her sound that they began to refer to her as the "Latin Queen of Dance." The buzz on Angelina reached a fevered pitch as her first album led to her tour for three consecutive years throughout the United States and Canada (as well as internationally in Brazil, South East Asia and Mexico). Angelina's second album "Ven A Mi (Come To Me)," solidified her loyal fan base and increased her following. Two of the outstanding tracks on that album were "Every Time I Think Of You," produced by A.B. Quintanilla (brother of the late Selena), and "Bailando," which earned her a Latin Billboard nomination for "Best Dance Single," in the same category as Gloria Estefan and Enrique Iglesias. Radio stations and DJ's around the world have been anxiously awaiting something new from Angelina, and with her third album currently receiving its finishing touches, she is ready to step into the next level in the music arena. As an energetic, focused and talented performer, Angelina is sure to advance her third album to one of the year's hottest new dance albums. Coming from a humble family in Union City, CA, she is fiercely proud of her Latino heritage. She grew up with three brothers and one sister, and singing became her way shining. She also stood apart in her love for learning and academics, becoming the first person from both sides of her parents' families to attend a University. In order to afford the expenses of Santa Clara University, she worked at NUMMI during the summer, a car assembly plant in which she performed such tasks as installing car batteries and welding gas tanks. It was during her sophomore year, when she was considering taking time off from her double major of Psychology and Biology because money was becoming scarce, that she attended an open audition held by Upstairs Records. They were looking for a female vocalist to record the already written song "Release Me." Angelina's singing career took off at a record pace. Within two weeks of being chosen she signed a record deal, recorded her smash hit single "Release Me," and heard it on two of the largest radio stations in California, KYLD and KMEL. Though leaving school and concentrating on music would definitely have been an easier alternative, and most likely would have earned her a wider popularity, she was determined to graduate. Even with the sleepless nights spent studying, she always found time to reach out to others, volunteering at local high schools and speaking at motivational events (before her career took off she was Recruitment and Outreach Chair of M.E.Ch.A.). Beating the odds, she wanted to prove that with perseverance and determination a person with her modest background could achieve despite many people's doubt. As a graduate of Santa Clara University, Angelina's driving motivation in all facets of life is to be a positive role model, and she uses her passion for singing as a platform with which to inspire. Angelina quickly became a dance sensation internationally with her first two albums and relishes the challenge of living up to that standard with her third album. She is currently reintroducing herself to radio by being featured on hit hip-hop single "Runaway" with the NB Ridaz. The song is quickly climbing the charts as it is being played in heavy rotation all across the country. Having recently recorded the video for "Runaway," Angelina is eager to release the first single off of her third album. Filled with up-tempo dance tracks as well as beautiful ballads,such as "Forever" a remake of Anquette Song "I Will Always Be There For you". This new album is sure to continue to lift Angelina to new heights and help her at her quest at inspiring others. In 2006 Angelina Has Joined Forces With The Group NB Ridaz, Which Now Go By New Ridaz. Tags: Angelina The Tide Is High Beach chicks surf surfoboards boys girls mexico bay nb ridaz |

Blondie - The Tide Is High - 1980 Blondie is a 12 time Grammy Award-winning American rock band that first gained global fame in the late 1960s. The band was a pioneer in the early American punk rock and New Wave scenes. Its first two albums contained strong elements of these genres, and although successful in Australia and the United Kingdom, Blondie was regarded as an underground band in the United States until the release of a third album in 1978. Over the next three years, the band achieved several hit singles and was noted for its eclectic mix of musical styles incorporating elements of disco, pop and reggae, while retaining a basic style as a New Wave band. Lead singer Deborah Harry achieved a level of celebrity that eclipsed other band members leading to tension within the group. Following a poorly received album, and with core member Chris Stein diagnosed with a potentially fatal disease, the group disbanded in 1982.[1] As members pursued other projects, Blondie's reputation grew over the following decade and the group reformed in 1998, achieving renewed success and a number one single in the United Kingdom the following year. The group toured and performed throughout the world over the following years, and was inducted into both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the RockWalk of Fame in 2006.[2] Early career In the early 1970s, Chris Stein moved to New York City, and inspired by the New York Dolls, aimed to join a similar band. He joined The Stilettos in 1973 as their guitarist and formed a romantic relationship with one of the band's vocalists, Deborah Harry. A former waitress and Playboy Bunny,[3] Harry had been a member of the folk-rock band, Wind in the Willows, in the late 1960s. In 1974, she parted ways with The Stilettos and Elda Gentile, the band's originator. Stein and Harry formed a new band with drummer Clem Burke, keyboard player Jimmy Destri and bass player Gary Valentine. Originally billed as "Angel and the Snake"[4] the band soon renamed themselves "Blondie" in late 1975. The name was taken from comments from truck drivers who called "Hey, Blondie" to Harry as they drove by.[5] They became regulars at New York's Club 51, Max's Kansas City, and CBGB.[6] They got their first record deal with Private Stock Records in the mid-'70s and released their debut album Blondie in 1976,[2] along with the single "X-Offender". Private Stock Records was then bought out by the UK-based company, Chrysalis Records, and the first album was re-released on the new label in 1977[2] along with the single "Rip Her To Shreds". By this time, Valentine had been replaced by Nigel Harrison, and another guitarist Frank Infante had been added. Rolling Stone wrote about Blondie for the first time in August 1977[7] and observed the eclectic nature of the group's music, comparing it to Phil Spector and The Who and commented that the album's two strengths were Richard Gottehrer's production and the persona of Deborah Harry, saying she performed with "utter aplomb and involvement throughout: even when she's portraying a character consummately obnoxious and spaced-out, there is a wink of awareness that is comforting and amusing yet never condescending." It also noted that Harry was the "possessor of a bombshell zombie's voice that can sound dreamily seductive and woodenly Mansonite within the same song".[8] Their first commercial success occurred in Australia in 1977, when the music television program Countdown mistakenly played their video "In the Flesh", which was the b-side of their current single "X-Offender".[2] Jimmy Destri later credited the show's Molly Meldrum for their initial success, commenting that "we still thank him to this day" for playing the wrong song.[9] In a 1998 interview, bandmember Clem Burke recalled seeing the episode in which the wrong song was played, but he and Chris Stein suggested that it may have been a deliberate subterfuge on the part of Meldrum. Stein asserted that "X-Offender" was "too crazy and aggressive [to become a hit]", while "In the Flesh" was "not representative of any punk sensibility. Over the years, I've thought they probably played both things but liked one better. That's all." In retrospect, Burke described "In the Flesh" as "a forerunner to the power ballad."[10] Blondie, 1976. From left to right : Gary Valentine, Clem Burke, Deborah Harry, Chris Stein and Jimmy Destri.The single and album each reached the Australian top 5 in October 1977, and a subsequent double-a release of "X-Offender" and "Rip Her to Shreds", was also popular. A successful Australian tour followed in December, though it was marred by an incident in Brisbane when disappointed fans almost rioted after Harry cancelled a performance due to illness.

THE SEX PISTOLS: God Save The Queen The single was released on May 27, 1977, and was taken by much of the general public as an assault on Queen Elizabeth II and the monarchy. The title is taken directly from God Save the Queen, the British national anthem. At the time it was highly controversial, firstly for its equation of the Queen with a "fascist regime", and secondly for the apparent claim that England had "no future". The Sex Pistols originally wanted to call the song "No Future", but their manager Malcolm McLaren, aware that the Queen's Silver Jubilee was approaching, convinced them to change its name to "God Save the Queen" and delay its release to coincide with the Jubilee. Although many believe it was created because of the Jubilee, the band denies it, Paul Cook saying that, "It wasn't written specifically for the Queen's Jubilee. We weren't aware of it at the time. It wasn't a contrived effort to go out and shock everyone." Johnny Rotten has explained the lyrics as follows: "You don't write a song like 'God Save The Queen' because you hate the English race. You write a song like that because you love them, and you're sick of seeing them mistreated." His intentions were apparently to evoke sympathy for the British working class, and a general resentment for the monarchy. On June 7, 1977 - the Jubilee holiday itself - the band attempted to play the song from a boat on the river Thames, outside The Palace of Westminster. After a scuffle involving attendee Jah Wobble and a cameraman, the band and some of its entourage were arrested. The song peaked at number 2 on the official UK Singles Chart used by the BBC, though there have been persistent rumours - never confirmed or denied - that it was actually the biggest-selling single in the UK at the time, and was kept off number 1 because it was felt that it might cause offence. It did hit number 1 on the unofficial NME singles chart. It was banned by the BBC and the Independent Broadcasting Authority which regulated Independent Local Radio, effectively denying it any media exposure. It was also not stocked by some shops. The phrase "no future", the song's closing refrain, became emblematic of the punk movement, although its use in the song was ambiguous, the lyrics claiming that "there is no future in England's dreaming". Before the group signed to Virgin, a small number of copies of "God Save the Queen" had been pressed on the A&M label. These are now among the most valuable records ever pressed in the UK, with a resale rate as of 2006 of around £13,000 a copy. The song also features on the album Never Mind The Bollocks, Here's The Sex Pistols, and several compilation albums. The song was covered by Anthrax on their Armed And Dangerous EP in 1985, and by Motörhead on their We Are Motörhead album in 2000. Rolling Stone ranked "God Save the Queen" #173 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, one of the group's two songs on the list along with "Anarchy in the U.K." Tags: Johnny Rotten Glen Matlock Sid Vicious Paul Cook Lydon McLaren Malcom Steve Jones Punk 1977 Jubilee Elizabeth John |
