Day 19: A song from the 70s

Driving from Maine to home yesterday and we drove thru Boston on route 128. And it reminded me of the lyrics to this song:

I'm in love with modern moonlight
128 when it's dark outside
I'm in love with Massachusetts
I'm in love with the radio on
It helps me from being alone late at night
Helps me from being lonely late at night
I don't feel so bad now in the car
Don't feel so alone, got the radio on
Like the roadrunner
That's right

Modern Lovers - Roadrunner

Day 20- A song from the 80's. (My favorite decade.)

Ever since you've been leaving me
I've been wanting to cry
Now I know how it feels for you
I've been wanting to die

Too Late For Goodbyes - Julian Lennon (1984)

Day 20: A song from the 80s

The Band's center, their guitarist and primary songwriter Robbie Robertson was never known for his love songs. He was more into mythic narratives, Americana propped up and then stripped bare. But oh, when he did a love song, fuck did he do it right.

"Do you feel what I feel
Can we make that so it's part of the deal
I gotta hold you in these arms of steel
Lay your heart on the line this time"

It is longing and love and devotion. Pure devotion.

"I want to come when you call
I'll get to you if I have to crawl
They can't hold me with these iron walls
We've got mountains to climb"

"Broken Arrow," Robbie Robtertson (1987)

Day 20 - A song from the 80's

Carrying on my little self-imposed Bond-challenge... The 80s were some of the best James Bond movies, but unfortunately some of the worst theme songs! Unlike @lavendersilk it is not my favorite decade, not by a longshot

But! There's an exception, thankfully. Much love to

Duran Duran - A View to a Kill
DAAANCE!
INTO THE FIRE!

Day 20 - Songs from the 80’s

I’m staying on my Boston thing… Boston in the 80s must’ve been amazing. Early hardcore (FUs, Gang Green, The Freeze, SS Decontrol, etc).

But there was also a lot of indie bands (whatever you called that back in the day… college rock?) Del Fuegos, Pixies, Lemonheads, Mission of Burma.

I always like this garagy parody of Dion’s Teenager in Love, from The Dogmatics.

Teenager on Drugs

Did your cough just say Live and Let Die (Paul & Wings) is the worst Bond theme!?

Day 16 - Song released this year
So much cool stuff around this year. I'm gonna choose Beach Bunny because her voice peps me right up and who doesn't need jangly guitar pop in their Monday? OH YES YOU DO.

Vertigo

Added to playlist!

Day 18: A song from the 60s

Big Brother & The Holding Company, Janis Joplin - Piece of My Heart​

This is one of my favorites!

In the spirit of the 60’s counter culture movement, I have this to say about your “rules “:

 

[vagrantx]

V!!! Hush! Do you want a spanking? but yes...

It was my song choice for the 70s! It's not against the rules to mention a song I've just posted, is it? Though I wouldn't mind a spanking...

It was the first Bond theme in Rock n' roll and I think it's absolutely sublime! I'm afraid I'm going to have to revoke your license to spank for crimes against McCartnanity.
