Jennifer Rush – The Power of Love
This is a power ballad. It is one of the most romantic songs that I know of. At the height of Whitney Houston fame, along comes Jennifer Rush, with granted, a one off hit, yet this songstress climbs the heights of vocal freedom and marks this heart-warming number… I had this on a 7 inch… Continue reading

Neneh Cherry & Youssou N’Dour – 7 Seconds
I mean, what can you say? Neneh Cherry? I can tell you that i stare so longingly sometimes at my original 12 inch version of Neneh Cherry – Buffalo Soldier – It usually just sits right on the outside of my record bag, it’s got some scribbles on it – some numbers or whatever – but… Continue reading

a-ha – Take On Me
This a flashback from my early childhood. I had it on 7 inch vinyl. It was a big hit back in the err…. day. I didn’t have MTV, not many did – a satellite dish was well pricey – you might get to watch it in the pub on the big screen if you were… Continue reading

Rita Ora – Don’t Think Twice
I am a bit slow on the uptake with pop music and it takes me a while to get down with it and discover all these great new pop artists. When I heard that they were interviewing Rita Ora on BBC Breakfast this morning my onboard DJ radar started beeping and I thought, yep, heard of Rita Ora –… Continue reading

Céu – Varanda Suspensa (Tropix)
I am currently in a Chatham House webinar on President Lula in Brazil. I had a little search around and apparently Céu is the Brazilian Taylor Swift so I thought I’d check out some of her music. I like World Music and it always helps in learning foreign languages and accessing global cultures, expanding one’s mind and world view, something we, in general… Continue reading

Röyksopp – This Must Be It
It’s probably quite an old track, now, this one. But to me it’s ‘recent’. I love it. I’m not sure at all how well it did successfully in the charts etc. Röyksopp are a crossover band. I think they are so innovative and creative and although I don’t listen to them obsessively I cannot think… Continue reading
