This, of course... is a Tori Amos song. (What I heard/watched my neice dance to - and I like Tori because [to ME] she was the "new" Kate Bush.) Anyway, this video actually reminds me of my sister and myself as children. She was/IS a wonderful dancer, and would "make me" do the "male" part of any dance. lol... How much fun we had. I wouldn't trade my memories in for NOTHING!! *WC |
Now, do you believe in rock 'n roll? Can music save your mortal soul? And can you teach me how to dance real slow? [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAsV5-Hv-7U"]YouTube- Don McLean- American Pie (with Lyrics)[/ame] I went down to the sacred store Where I'd heard the music years before But the man there said the music wouldn't play. And in the streets the children screamed, The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed, But not a word was spoken. |

It was great in person too. My honey is a fan of the show "So You Think You Can Dance". They were going to be touring in our area, so I got her tickets. She was psyched. I honestly didn't want to go, but I did (for her). In any case, that performance was great and happened to be my favorite part of the show. Very powerful piece.

I love this quote Snow and REALLY can identify with it. I was alone, alone, alone as a kid - except for when I listened to music. I was COMFORTABLE then and comforted by my musical haven... This is my favorite early Jackson Five's song: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ej1DCv2JED0"]YouTube- Got to be there- Jackson five[/ame] We were all trying to hit that one dang high note in this - without going falsetto!! SMILE... and I was such a little queer, dreaming of "her" already then! :love1: I grew up on Motown, and my oldest sister just left the radio on all night (even school nights), with the Casey show... She had an 8TRACK portable player (our early BOOM BOX!), and the tape (not called cassettes yet, those were the SMALL tapes yet to come) "The Best of the Supremes". While I was cutting out the little 45 records off the back of cereal boxes - where I got the very young Stevie Wonder's "Uptight, (Everything's Alright)", and The Temptations "My Girl", which absolutely MELTED my heart. That Detroit sound... and the beat is unmistakable. And I started building those drumsets! :heartbeat: *And I'm still very sad about losing Michael. |

Nope! This was an extremely good choice though. Very sad about the loss of Kelly Johnson, she was so good! And really ROCKED. But, I'm talking back further than this. Think, "relative" to time periods too. For example, how we thought of Jimi ,The Who as being "hard rock", some of it is considered "pretty now" by some current standards. Just like when Black Sabboth and Deep Purple came along, today some of "that" is very "beautiful"... Seriously, this was the first all women's band accepted for major mainstream recording - a difficult pathway to establish for the time. They wrote their own music and all played there own instruments. And although there surely were other women's band's then playing rock, this was the first "hired" for recording. Other all female bands were accepted for this band paving the way. More clues lined up, but keep trying first. I gave a VERY good clue to start off with. Sincerely! WILDCAT |

The children are our future...
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4N3N1MlvVc4"]YouTube- Mad World - Gary Jules[/ame] Snowy, I thought REM sang this version, and did not know that Tears for Fears did this originally, AND that this guy Jules really did this song - not REM. (Half the world got that wrong though, just punch it in by REM and this version/song comes up for them with this song title.) Here's my favorite Tears for Fears song: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOA4ixV-3jU"]YouTube- Everybody Wants To Rule The World[/ame] *I was always CONVINCED that this song had a dual meaning and ONE of them was about being queer and having to be in the closet. This is a beautiful song to me and had political relevance for it's time. (Well, much of their music did.) WILD |

Unless you mean The Slits which were certainly HARD but considered more punk than rock. Back further than Girlschool, and mainstream and popular? And HARD rock? And all-female? No one that I know of. Now if we are talking about regular blues-based rock, history of rock and (non-hard) roll and all, then the first mainstream all-female rock band would probably be the GTO's. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCC0lihHBwQ"]YouTube- the GTOs (Girls Together Outrageously), 1969[/ame] But I'm thinking you mean the Fannies. Blues based rock remarkable for existing in a man's world circa 1970 (or whenever). They rocked! In a 70's Tv friendly non- hard way! lol. But seriously, they totally rocked. |
oops
OK they were FANNY, not "the fannies":
And they were damn cute. They probably awakened a million girl's rock dreams on the Sonny and Cher show! [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9VM1rYcPGA"]YouTube- FANNY "Charity Ball" 1971[/ame] Now, what do I win? ;) |
