Break Yo' TV: "The NeverEnding Story"

"Family Matters" Opening Theme Song "Full Version"
The 1980s birthed a string of brilliant fantasy films sullied by tinny technopop soundtracks. Nobody cared at the time of course, but try and sit through Legend in 2010 without cringing at Tangerine Dream's flowery score and you're in for a challenge. Unsurprisingly, director Ridley Scott released his own cut of the film in 2006 with Jerry Goldsmith's original score intact, showing that he knew what worked cinematically even if the producers didn't. A more famous (although not quite as severe) case of a stellar fantasy film being sonically poisoned is Wolfgang Petersen's 1984 classic [...]

Cadbury's Eyebrow Ad

Cadbury's Eyebrow Ad "like Chris Cunningham lite" as one of the YouTube commenters says. Random. In other news, listening to Now 1 has turned me on to Limahl 's 1983 No. 16 smash, Only For Love . I feel dirty. Spank me.

Kajagoogoo - Too Shy - Now 1983 TV Show UK (2008)
Isn't a lavish celebration of the anniversary of a compilation album pushing the idea of 'a very special birthday' a little far, even for ITV? Regardless, they spun the 'useless female presenter' wheel, selected Denise Van Outen, and threw a show to mark the 25th anniversary of the first Now That's What I Call Music compilation. On television. To be fair to ITV, they did at least invite back original artists to do their songs - normally, they'd have got Jamie Cullum and the Sugababes to have a crack at Hey You The Rocksteady Crew. But the format [...]

KajaGooGoo - now with Limahl, too

Last year, the unsuccessful rump of KajaGooGoo - the bit left after they'd kicked Limahl out - reformed. This year, thought they're back, properly complete with the walking anagram. Wonderfully, Limahl still talks in pure Smash Hits language - "life is not a rehearsal" he explains. Of course, it'll all end in a bunch of tears but for now, the band are together in Germany; the UK can look forward to two dates in Milton Keynes (The Stables) early next month. There's a plan to make an album - which, I suspect, [...]

Does anyone remember this?

If you dont thats doesn't matter... what matters is the GENIUS of this music video

Soundtracked.

Soundtracked. This post originally began as a collection of cheesy theme songs, but eventually grew into a mass of songs from the soundtracks of movies I love and adore. A good majority of them are 80s classics since I was born in '81, but there are some newer and older gems mixed in too. I had a lot of fun gathering them, since just hearing them brings back tons of good movie viewing memories (read as: makeouts). It also reminded me of how much I've always wanted the opportunity to compile a soundtrack for a movie. I have no idea how [...]

ThaBombShelter UnderCover Day Seven: My Personal Favorites

Johnny Cash - Hurt
It's now the seventh day of UnderCover Week here at ThaBombShelter, and I'm going to spend tonight posting some of my favorite cover songs of all time. I couldn't find the originals to some of them, but I'm going to post them anyway, dammit. Also, you may notice that some of them are reposts from earlier in the week, but I don't care, they're good enough to warrant another mention. Enjoy!

Never Ending Story

'Tell me why' - Limahl
14 years after his last release, Limahl is back with a new single. Released in Germany as a result of his appearance on a reality TV programme, Tell Me Why is a euro-pop track that explores the break-up of a marriage. Whilst catchy enough, it sadly isn't the pop classic that the always self-effacing Limahl deserves. MP3: Limahl – Tell Me Why buy: Limahl – Tell Me Why
