Tigercity - Red Lips

"Pretend we don't know what happens at all"

I posted a track by neo-disco act Tigercity awhile back but I don't want you to forget about them. An album is in the works for later this year (I think) and a few months ago they released the excellent Red Lips as a bonus track attached to a magazine's compilation cd. Far from just a bonus track, the song's fast become one of my favorites from the guys. It is definitely very Hall & Oates, as all of the band's material is. I can't wait for the full album, though their excellent EP definitely helps tide me over.

Lady GaGa - Love Games

"I wanna take a ride on your disco stick"

I've been planning on posting this track since last week but the fantabulous Into The Groove beat me to it. I'm still going to post it, though, because Lady GaGa is just that good. if you missed her performance on So You Think You Can Dance, you've got to check it out to see how unique and downright strange this artist is. The best thing, though, is that her excellent single, Just Dance, is actually starting to catch on in America. Could Lady GaGa help turn the tide of US radio?? Let's hope so. Love Games is fantastic, with mentions of the already-legendary "disco stick" (which appeared in the performance) framed as a sleezy come-on that probably won't be getting on any US radio stations.

Flashback Friday: Sailor - Glass Of Champagne



"I've been waiting much too long for this moment to come along"

How about some catchy British glam rock today? 70's bubblegum group Sailor are best known for this track, Glass Of Champagne. I'm sure most of my UK readers are familiar with this track, as it was a big hit, but I don't think it did much in the States. It is without a doubt one of the catchiest songs of the era, though, the kind of almost jingle-like tune that gets plastered into your brain. Unfortunately, the hideous Scooter has sampled this brilliant track for their hideous 2008 single Dancing All Over The World. Are they hell-bent on ruining every 70's bubblegum classic, or what?
