BOYS DON'T CRY The third "one hit wonder" band in a row, where their single "I Wanna Be a Cowboy" reached #12 on the American Hot 100 Billboard chart and charted all around the world - all around the world that is, apart from the UK, where it failed to chart at all, which gave Boys Don't Cry something to cry about. 1987: Boys Don't Cry - Who the Am Dam Do You Think We Am? - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_laySyGMjaD4O99V6SXezP3gnqfNKmCplo |

Synth-Pop Britannia THE BUGGLES Fed up with producing untalented punk idiots with band names such as the Unwanted, the Unwashed and the Unheard, Trevor Horn decided The Buggles would be a great name for his own Synth-Pop band (although he's since regretted the choice of name) in partnership with premier league keyboardist Geoff Downes. Their first single "Video Killed the Radio Star" made it all the way to number one, as well as being the first video ever to be played on MTV in 1981. The Buggles broke up following poor sales of their sophomore album, but more Drama was just around the corner when Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes both became unexpected members of YES! 1980: The Buggles - The Age of Plastic - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kDa9MV3a5Uqdp-YrjcdaiizTW3JVaUaxk 1981: The Buggles - Adventures in Modern Recording - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLALm9OqeAm6luHidBL21rnXdJ2lAulMks Year Pos.

Art of Noise - Before You Tube, there was The Tube, a trendy teatime pop show hosted by Jools Holland (keyboard player with Squeeze) and Paula Yates (ex-wife of Bob Geldof). Here's Anne Dudley with Art of Noise performing Live on The Tube in a rare clip from 1986. It's so rare in fact, that I found the clip on YouTube just now when I wasn't even looking for it. Artist of Noise - An in-depth interview with Anne Dudley. Edited by Psychedelic Paul - May 25 2024 at 15:42 |

CABARET VOLTAIRE The fourth most famous Synth-Pop band from Sheffield, Cabaret Voltaire are named after the Zurich nightclub that inspired the avant-garde Dada art movement, and just as the name implies, Cabaret Voltaire's music is decidedly offbeat, weird and eccentric, varying wildly from experimental, to industrial, to dance music, and with bizarre song titles such as "Spread the Virus", "Baader Meinhof" and "Do the Mussolini", you can expect the unexpected. 1979: Cabaret Voltaire - Mix-Up - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kuVoMc1sB5dVtYWgmV8hBU4JB9xsi0zz8 1980: Cabaret Voltaire - Three Mantras - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDQpBMVj-hw 1980: Cabaret Voltaire - The Voice of America - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lv35Iz39SM-n87oDrYs8g4GOlisKMaBzs 1981: Cabaret Voltaire - Mecca - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_m_OPwZcLQeJ09j4CLlJHuArDiIAoxDs78 1982: Cabaret Voltaire - 2x45 - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nBChCp77k-8e0oE-3_v423n8zapk4RE7o 1983: Cabaret Voltaire - The Crackdown - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mEVLJv8aLrcB3oKLYBmliAUoZd3mq7cyY 1984: Cabaret Voltaire - Micro-Phonies - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mVVSz5NG6f_OFKZsocyLIrCcZ52v5KbB4 1985: Cabaret Voltaire - The Covenant, the Sword, and the Arm of the Lord - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nCGyEQGGIl1kFOMBCUQnwsui40U0Pg1hE 1987: Cabaret Voltaire - C.O.D.E. - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lmIe9pdBK018HKV_Mm5eDuM_xgSQ8Pz9g 1990: Cabaret Voltaire - Groovy, Laidback and Nasty - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nKuSoax9nFGz4Cdl_ZqunqTxcvS0Mkff8 1991: Cabaret Voltaire - Body and Soul - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqx8HE-cr3Hv5HOXa4i5O8q_WWUw7_U8m 1992: Cabaret Voltaire - Plasticity - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGnO5D9O_SVA4V8cGWDRDAB0_kygNHD04 1993: Cabaret Voltaire - International Language - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lkEVYlMNQdX57nLIRGoxRFLwjzDOXcJq8 1994: Cabaret Voltaire - The Conversation - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiyiBCq1LXxbwmXXkxBx2O5SjNOzZEmHM 2020: Cabaret Voltaire - Shadow of Fear - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_m7vuvin679eV3Og7af_2KZIkbPxYDhDbk Year Pos.

'Nag Nag Nag' is a great track by Cabaret Voltaire. It was released as a single in 1979 and should have been a hit. (The song is not about an old horse).
I would post a youtube link, but I don't know how to do it.

"Nag Nag Nag" sounds like something Alf Garnett would've said to the "silly old moo" in Till Death Us Do Part. |

CaVa CaVa Como ca va? It's CaVa CaVa, a short-lived New Wave band from Bournemouth, featuring a male singer with a squeaky voice who sounds remarkably like a girl (and looks not unlike a young Jon Anderson), but then again, anything goes in the weird and wacky world of 1980's New Romanticism. CaVa CaVa's one and only album was distributed by Regard Records - the primary label of Haysi Fantayzee, but try not to hold that against them. Year Pos.

I had every confidence that those midperiod albums from "The Crackdown" to "Groovy, Laidback and Nasty" would garner the most favour with you considering they are the most accessible albums CV released (particularly "Groovy, Laidback and Nasty"). As a fan from virtually the beginning I rate "The Crackdown" and "Micro-Phonies" as five star albums, well worth a listen by any Industrial/ House music fans. |

^ Cabaret Voltaire's videos are just as bizarre as their music, where they make a good argument for gun control in the shocking video below.

CHINA CRISIS Crisis? What Crisis? They're Merseyside's Best Kept Secret and I've been Flaunting the Imperfection with China Crisis for nearly forty years now, having first learned how to play Black Man Ray (badly) on my Yamaha keyboard back in the mid-1980's.

I have always liked China Crisis for the way their music sounds, however I find them lyrically a bit soft, if not downright baffling at times.
It's not that I dislike baffling lyrics as such (Jon Andersons lyrics for one example) it's just that China Crisis seem to have a "that'll do" attitude to their lyrics. "Decorate, paint it for the union (?) No reason to give up on the illusion." Arizona Sky "Don't say walk I may lose my fear." Christian Their lyrics can go from profound to mundane in one line. "Are we believing Black man ray Persuasive danger In everything you say And we the people Who answer you why Forever doubt As time goes by" Black Man Ray |
