I like this video...
I've got an idea. We can look for the sexiest videos ever and post them. We can even do kind of a contest choosing what's the sexiest one at the end. I thought to do the same with joking songs, or recordings that make you laugh. We can do both "contests".
This is a great idea.
Since we're talking about 80s music...
I thought of the same video first than the Chris Isaak one. I thought it was too obvious...

2 Proposals for sexiest video and funniest recording: Chris Isaak (and Laetitia Casta)-Baby did a bad bad thing
I agree with this choice....watching Chris Isaak get hot and bothered is okay by me

Thanks.
Funny how you think it's too fast, when in fact I think it's a bit slower than Simon & Garfunkel's album version on Bridge Over Troubled Water.

It took me quite a while (and lots of video watching and listening closely to every bootleg version I could find) to figure them out, ...
A brutal and thankless job but someoen had to do it
I could probably only watch this video for the rest of my life and be perfectly happy.

Almost seems humanly impossible for them to sound so good together. My brother and I were talking about old concert posters the other day so I was googling Beatles posters and since the Cyrkle opened for them in 1966 in the US I wiki'd them and discovered that their hit "Red Rubber Ball" was co-written by Paul Simon. I'm guessin' this isn't news to Evie! No wonder it was a hit!
Some of the comments on youtube for the S&G version are interesting...wonder how much of it is true. -

You're speaking Chinese to me here.
So you should understand perfectly!
Now if it were Samoan or something....

Some of the comments on youtube for the S&G version are interesting...wonder how much of it is true.No, it certainly isn't news about Red Rubber Ball. I remember seeing a video where Paul talks about this. But hmmm, where to find it? He wrote it and kind of sold it to that other group. I think it WAS about the money at the time, like some of the comments seem to suggest. Don't know about the royalties though, and if he refused to credit his co-writer.
I think he was still quite young at the time. I'll have to dig in my "archives"
to find the video. I'd never seen the Cyrkle video though, thanks for posting. The acoustic guitarist is quite cute.

supernova club huh?....what's this place all about? please explain in 10 words or less.
Ha! Ten words or less? I know (and anybody who knows me knows
that this is not a job for ME.
Anybody else want to take a stab at it?
Meanwhile, welcome aboard.
I can explain in ten words: sex, boobs, music, food, movies, politics, weather, health, tv, supernovas.
or "where were you while we're getting high?"
or "apreciating the beauty there is in life"...
Very good.

Ouch! What the hell was she thinking...? http://www.break.com/index/excited-chick-lands-painfully-off-stage.html
She wasn't
Here's one you'll like... http://www.break.com/index/robbie-williams-gets-pushed-off-stage.html
You know, this annoys me to NO END. I mean, not Robbie Williams, but the fans getting on stage. I mean, it nearly always ends well, but it could be so much worse.
If I was an artist on stage and it happened to me, I'd say to hell with it all and never do another show in my life.
: I mean, if you can't be safe anymore on your stage....same thing when I saw Simon&Garfunkel's Central Park concert for the first time and that fan rushed on stage when Paul was doing a solo number, that fan was screaming something like "I gotta talk to you".
: I mean, honestly. And that was in 1981, right after Paul's lyrics went "have you heard John Lennon has died". I'd be SO annoyed and really scared as well.
I agree, this annoys me too. No one deserves this. When he is standing there on stage not expecting this and not being able to defend himself he could get seriosuly injured. I would never go on a stage again if something like this happened to me, I would have been to scared. The asshole who did this should spend some time in jail.
yet the show must go on and if you're a musician you simply must get back to the stage, even if it's danger... like happened to Noel, maybe is the same guy??? It's not the same but I know Freddie (Mercury) had a strange injury on the stage. He broke his arm doing one of those moves he did singing... then he went to the piano and finished all the concert there. Or was it a leg? Yes, It should have been a leg...
I guess you're right. The show must go on. I haven't heard this story about Freddie. He broke his leg on stage? Wow! Maybe it's on YouTube...?

Chris Isaak looks so happy when the babe is about to take off her bra.
But I did not like the ending... what the hell was he doing?

Oliver, I'm going to try and learn Mrs. Robinson on guitar too.

I don't think so... not every Queen concert was filmed, only a little few... well, seeing all the things he did on stage, he was lucky to only breaking a leg in so many concerts.

searching for freddie breaking his legs on stage.... I've found bootletgs... Unreleased Freddie Mercury stuff
Unreleased Paul McCartney-"New York Kind Of Song" Best composers ever create alike, I guess..., as good as Paul unreleased stuff. They both have a New York unreleased song! and they're similar Unreleased Freddie Mercury-New York
-
More Freddie priceless bootlegs A 2007 Remix of New York similar to the remix of Living on my own
This is superb, as Freddie couldn't attend some event (Queen Fans 1987 convention) because he was recording, he composed and recorded something for that. You Are the Only One (Best Macca-like) It's so you Love Making Love (this almost makes it to Queen's A Kind of Magic but not!) Money Can't Buy Happiness (not Love, like Paul :lolI Can't Dance Gazelle Queen-My Secret Fantasy (Innuendo sessions) A New Life Is Born (the intro became the intro of Breakthru) there's lots Self made man I guess we're falling out-Queen The Miracle Sessions Feel like-with some parts that became part of Under Pressure Dog With a Bone Face it Alone Butterfly and on and on with the show, it's neverending... And this is all UNRELEASED stuff
-
And this is Freddie's last public performance. If the Elvis one was that poignant Unchained Melody, Freddie appeared on stage with Cliff Richard on 1988 to sing In My Defence.
