1
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:41.920
Oh, that's right. Everybody wants
to rule the world, Yes they do.
2
00:00:42.039 --> 00:00:45.240
That's tears for fears everybody. This
is Cliff Cliverston on the one that
3
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:49.799
only Kate hits ninety five point nine. We have a very special guest,
4
00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:53.759
and this very special guest comes from
the underworld. That's right, the underworld.
5
00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:56.439
You've heard this right. A lot
of people like to paint him red
6
00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:00.960
with horns, but today he is
dressed in an LA Round sweatshirt and an
7
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:06.560
Los Angeles Dodger's hat. Shall we
call you dark Prince or Dark Lord?
8
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:14.120
What would you prefer call me?
Master? I am the one and only
9
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:22.599
keeper of the gate. I believe
I have your partner's soul. You can't
10
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:29.400
even come in and sit at the
studio you have me sitting with this valley
11
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:34.560
boy. Hello Clifton. Okay,
well, everybody wants to rule the world,
12
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:37.480
don't they? Let me ask you? What is the what don't we
13
00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:40.840
give this motive today for you coming
out here? Well, as you know,
14
00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:46.480
I usually come to collect souls.
Bon Scott, I've got him.
15
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:51.799
I've got Richard Pryor soul. So
basically, what you're trying to tell us
16
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:55.799
is you're here to collect souls.
Yes, I thought that job belonged to
17
00:01:55.840 --> 00:02:00.239
somebody else. But anyway, on
that note, we are here celebrating new
18
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:02.640
wave music today, and is there
a particular new wave song that you prefer?
19
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:07.000
I love them all. I created
the music that that other guy hates,
20
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:13.479
Clifford. I created boy George because
people would hate you. What are
21
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:15.479
your plans today? What are your
particular do you want to do today?
22
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:20.680
Today? I'm going to go to
the golf course, so Mortabello Golf Course
23
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:27.800
off the sixty Freeway, and I'm
gonna go eighteen, have some drinks and
24
00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:35.080
meet up with a splendid young thirty
yield named Brandy Branderson. And then I
25
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:38.680
think I'll get a burrito or something
like that. Maybe I'll drive through traffic
26
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:43.240
and watch people get angry. I'm
going to take souls with you, and
27
00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:49.919
we are going back three eighties when
everything was free. See what five years
28
00:02:49.960 --> 00:03:19.319
Clifford loves One point, It's Friday, and you're with back to the eighties.
29
00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:22.599
Just kind of one chang the show
that introduces the eighties to a whole
30
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:27.199
new generation, taking us back to
a time when life was much simpler,
31
00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:31.960
much more dangerous, but it was
a whole lot of fun. We're here
32
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:36.400
Friday on all platforms, and we
thank you for taking the time to join

today as he is every single Friday, Ladies and gentlemen, is a man
36
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:53.000
that has told more jokes than Bill
Cosby on Date Night. He is a
37
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:59.479
man that has taught mister Miyagi the
crane. Move we here and back to
38
00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:02.960

and gentlemen, Ladies of the eighties, rivet heads and earth dogs, preppies
40
00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:15.600
and everyone that joined me that wore
op pants. It is I the legend,
41
00:04:15.600 --> 00:04:19.959
in my own mind, the Chang, the second driver to this vehicle
42
00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:25.079
of zaniness. And before we start
to show, I want to Scanno to
43
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:28.399
bow his head, close his eyes
and he will get a big surprise.
44
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:33.560
Tiscano, are you ready for a
surprise? Please, Siscanno, get ready
45
00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:39.360
for a suprise? Right, I'm
ready, Ladies and gentlemen, in this
46
00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:43.639
corner, you weigh one hundred ninety
four pounds of pure muscle and Italian sauce.

00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:48.800
Dressing to Scanno Tusky and there's other
round waging a cool one sixty five.
48

meanest creature since the snail on the
49
00:04:55.439 --> 00:05:00.319
slug the chang as the bell will
rang lots, get ready to rum.

oil can you put on one bicep
contest that you were at Venice Beach I
79

to hit you tonight with my top five

female artists of new wave and their
top song. What do you think of
83
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:53.920

00:07:53.959 --> 00:07:56.920
do want to give some special shout
outs tonight. Oh yes, please do

86
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:03.800
out out if you are listening from
Canada, from Spain, from Ireland and
87
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:09.800
Brazil, and let's do one more
country just after. Let's spend the wheel
88
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:15.319
here. And also a big shout
out if you're listening to us directly from
89
00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:20.160
Madagascar. Wow. Now that was
a great, a great movie. I
90
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:24.160
watched that with my grandchildren. Madagascar. Hey, let's give a shout out
91
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:28.800
to Germany, Austria, the UK
of Mexico. Let's give a shout out
92
00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:33.720
to Southern Californa. Order homies,
what's up everybody in Northern California, Central
93
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:39.399
California, Utah. Remember we have
Rob Roy out there listening to us in
94
00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:45.919
Utah, who is now also sitting
in the ABC sound booth. Can you
95
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:50.879
dig that? Oh hey, A
big shout out to the Robs, Rob
96
00:08:50.960 --> 00:08:52.399
Roy. I miss that cat man. We did some good rock and roll
97
00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:56.879
shows man back in the days of
the A r B. That's right,
98
00:08:56.960 --> 00:09:00.159
the former a ARB. We won't
go into anything else all, so I
99
00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:03.120
want to give a shout out to
a good buddy of ours that we met
100
00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:07.720
at AARB. Remember Big Gus Gustavo. Yet apparently he was involved in a
101
00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:15.240
very bad traffic accident and he's trying
to heal up right now. He's got
102
00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:18.200
himself into a wheelchair. It was
a pretty bad situation. I want to
103
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:22.519
give him a special shout up from
the bottom of my heart and let him
104
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:26.080
know that we haven't forgot him.
And as soon as he's healed up,
105
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:30.600
maybe he can give us a buzz
and give us the homely aspect of back
106
00:09:30.639 --> 00:09:35.080
to the eighties, because you know, he looks like he's swinging maybe thirty,
107
00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:35.919
but you know, come on,
bro, he was back in the
108
00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:39.440
eighties. He can't lie to us. Oh yeah, yeah, I remember.
109
00:09:39.960 --> 00:09:41.559
Well. A big shout out to
guts man. I hope, I
110
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:46.279
hope you do a very very quick
recovery over there, man wherever you are.
111
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:50.360
Everybody at the first responder, everybody
that's working in retail, everybody's at
112
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:54.399
is a paramedic, a doctor,
a nurse, everybody that is out there
113
00:09:54.480 --> 00:09:58.480
working putting themselves in possible risk of
the virus. Here's to you. Here's
114
00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:03.960

our police force, our fire department of

00:10:03.960 --> 00:10:09.440
course, our medical staff like I
mentioned before, and our troops both men
116
00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:13.799

for protecting us and giving us the freedom
117
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:16.600
to do what we do. Right

121
00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:35.960
I want to give a shout out
to a bunch of my special homies in
122
00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:41.360
Montebello, California that attended Saint Benedicts
with me today as we were mentioning we're
123
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:45.840
gonna be talking about nineteen eighty three, nineteen eighty four new wave music.
124
00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:50.399
On this train of new wave.
I've mentioned to you many times, you
125
00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:54.399
know, even in private conversations just
between you and me, I've never pictured
126
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:58.480
you the type of guy that would
be listening at any time, at any
127
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:05.519
point in life to music. Well, my partner, my partner in crime,
128
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:09.639
I will explain this. You know, music is everything to me.
129
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:15.279
As I've grown up every decade of
my life. I can recall pretty much
130
00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:18.879
most of the bands, the music, the songs, and the artists of
131
00:11:18.919 --> 00:11:22.159
that decade. You know, my
preference is of the rock and roll,
132
00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:26.200
and the rock and roll comes in
many genres, from the blues rock and
133
00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:28.480
roll to the hard rock and roll, to the metal to the dark black
134
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:33.960
metal, all the way to the
alternative and yes, the new wave.
135
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:39.000
My love of the new wave is
because why are we doing this show the
136
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:43.320
eighties? You have to know the
chang is the lover of music, correct,
137
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:48.679
just like you? Sure? So
that means we as lovers of music
138
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:52.559
are like wine lovers, cheese lovers, alcohol lovers, lovers of fine things.
139
00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:56.759
To where we're going to go and
take a nibble of this and nibble
140
00:11:56.759 --> 00:12:00.919
of that experience, put it in
our taste, bud and see if we
141
00:12:01.039 --> 00:12:03.279
like that. I find that with
music new wave, there are a lot
142
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:07.960
of bands that I do really dig
in new wave, and that's because I
143
00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:13.759
seen that they have the musicianship,
they have the intellect, they have the
144
00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:18.480
key with what needs to be made
at that particular time, and a certain
145
00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:24.039
experience that they went through that's going
to capture the attention. So there's certain
146
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:28.039
bands that were in the new wave
era that I thought were of that relevance.
147
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:33.840
So tonight I'm going to lay it
on your feet with your booty socks
148
00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:37.279
and all, kick off your shoes, show me your booty socks, and
149
00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:39.440
tonight we're going to get down in
dirty. All right, Well, I'm
150
00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:46.159
ready willing enable man. Okay,
my very first new wave female artists,
151
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:50.320
and tonight I'm going female because the
chicks, they knows how to get damn
152
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:54.000
kicks, you know what I'm saying. The eighties ladies brought it. And
153
00:12:54.159 --> 00:13:00.440
this first band is Berlin out of
southern California, I believe, and their
154
00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:07.039
very first hit was Metro. I
remember seeing Berlin at my grad night at
155
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:13.039
Saint Benedict's in nineteen eighty three.
I saw them and I stayed for the
156
00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:16.879
whole set night. I was enthralled, and I was into every tune that
157
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:22.399
they did. Synthesized rock sometimes goes
bad. Sometimes it doesn't are as great
158
00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:26.840
Berlin. The way they put it
together and it was a live show,
159
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:31.399
it worked really well. I gave
her props. Off the chick and carry
160
00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:35.600
a note. She could take you
up and down and all around. And
161
00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:39.240
she was a hot looking chick.
Herlin was great. When when the first
162
00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:43.639
time? Now do you remember Berlin
being on MTV at all? Because I
163
00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:48.639
believe it or not, I don't
remember any videos from her. Yes.
164
00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:52.440
As a matter of fact, Metro
was their very first video. It was
165
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:56.759
a black and white scenario. She
was sitting on a train. You get
166
00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:01.000
glances of her hotness, her blondness, and you know what I mean.
167
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:05.919
It's kind of the way they did
move of videos back there. Everybody can
168
00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:09.519
relate, you know. They kind
of did it almost into a movie,
169
00:14:09.960 --> 00:14:18.039
a mini movie type set it right, but Berlin Metro actually was made to
170
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:22.639
look like she was on a train
telling a story. You know. They
171
00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:28.759
showed the band members periodically on flashes
and they were carrying they were wearing Colombo
172
00:14:28.879 --> 00:14:35.240
overcoats and black hats kind of shadowed
in their faces, kind of you know,
173
00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:37.919
mysterious, seductive looking. She was
a hot looking chick. I'll tell
174
00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:43.759
you that. Listen in so people
can get an idea, especially people that
175
00:14:43.840 --> 00:15:11.159
have never heard Berlin with the metro. Oh hear the synthesizer in the background,
176
00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:13.600
wasn't it? You know, it
was a great album and it was
177
00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:18.960
a great time, you know music. Like I say, the synthesizer kind
178
00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:22.200
of made some bands and it kind
of broke some bands, kind of cheapened
179
00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:24.759
some bands, you know. And
we can go in. I can go
180
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:28.120
into so many artists where I can
give a name and I don't want to
181
00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:31.320
be dick hater, but I enjoy
being the hater every now and then on
182
00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:35.799
bands where synthesized music just didn't,
uh, you know, go hand in
183
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:41.440
hand with the style that where they
already had promoted or the style that you
184
00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:45.759
knew they could take it, but
they went synthesizer, you know what I'm
185
00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:50.360
saying. A band and another great
band was the B fifty twos. Now
186
00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:54.919
the B fifty twos, you know, the main lean singer you know who
187
00:15:54.960 --> 00:15:58.440
he was, mister famous, you
know what I mean? He had such
188
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:02.679
a voice at how could you even
be a co lead singer in a band
189
00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:07.480
with that guy? Such an eclectic
type voice, something totally different, to
190
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:14.120
a different range. But if you
listen to the background singers of the B
191
00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:18.240
fifty twos, it's hypnotic, you
know what I mean. It's old school.
192
00:16:18.559 --> 00:16:21.639
You can almost see the Ronettes in
it. I can tell you it
193
00:16:21.679 --> 00:16:26.440
was hypnotic because I hated the B
fifty two and still it. Look it's
194
00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:30.519
hard for me to hate some music, but oh my gosh, the B
195
00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:33.080
fifty two, and especially with the
worst song than I've ever heard of my
196
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:37.480
entire life, which was it wasn't
during New Wave era, you know,
197
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:42.279
it came I think in nineteen eighty
seven. Maybe it was the Love Shock.
198
00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:48.399
But remember I hated, hated.
You know what, brother, I
199
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:49.720
will have to tell you, I
don't I agree with you. That was
200
00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:53.840
a song that I really didn't care
for. That song kind of reminded me
201
00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:56.759
of like going to the beach and
I'm the chang. I hate going to
202
00:16:56.840 --> 00:17:00.879
the beach. I don't like sand
in my toes, I don't like swimming
203
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:03.960
in water. Where Fish's Duty where
people dropped their trunks in Urinee. I
204
00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:08.079
don't like that kind of scene.
So love Shack always reminded me of going
205
00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:11.920
to the Beach. I hated that
song, like I hate going to the
206
00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:15.200
Beach. Well, I gotta tell
you that from nineteen eighty three. The
207
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:19.640
Urhythmics is another band who burst on
the scene with their Sweet Dreams Are Made
208
00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:22.839
of This album, which, by
the way, I used to get so
209
00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:26.119
confused when I was a kid.
I used to wait, are they saying
210
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:33.400
sweet dreams are made of this?
Or are they saying sweet dreams are made
211
00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:38.359
of these? I just couldn't really
wrap my mind around them. I believe
212
00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:45.000
it's these. You have to give
a lot of credit to the Urhythmics,
213
00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:51.279
you know what I'm saying, the
music ensemble of musicians that they gathered to
214
00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:55.160
make the music they did, and
they were once married, Dave Stewart and
215
00:17:55.240 --> 00:18:02.920
Annie Lennox. Annie Lennox had such
a voice, was kind of the ranges
216
00:18:02.960 --> 00:18:07.440
of greatness to where you can go
into the Elephantzgerald, you can go into
217
00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:12.000
the Edda James, the Billie Holiday. You could take it into like a
218
00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:17.480
heart, uh, you know,
with Anne Wilson, something hard rocky like
219
00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:22.720
that. She had a range that
was way beyond her even making it as
220
00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:26.200
pop new wave. And she could
also act. And she was freaking hot
221
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:30.559
too, and don't even Nix was
so hot. She gave me a weird
222
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:36.119
vibe and I don't know what it
was. She she kind of reminded me
223
00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:37.799
of somebody who would work like at
a funeral home, you know what.
224
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:41.279
She reminded me of a dominatrix.
And I would have let her spank.
225
00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:44.880
That's what it is. And I
because you know, you know what,
226
00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:48.119
that's what it is, the chan
you know what I mean. Bro,
227
00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:49.519
I'm about the rock and roll.
Bro, I'm all about the wear of
228
00:18:49.599 --> 00:18:53.400
the leather, you know. And
I'm a metal kind of cat. And
229
00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:56.279
oh yeah, I would have let
her spank me. But you see,
230
00:18:56.319 --> 00:18:59.880
I wouldn't have let her do the
pulp fiction with a red ball on my
231
00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:03.960
because I get my pit full of
a red ball when we want to throw
232
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:06.480
it around the yards. I get
him fit built, you know, And
233
00:19:06.599 --> 00:19:10.720
so I wouldn't go that route.
But Annie Lennox, that band, great
234
00:19:10.759 --> 00:19:32.960
band man, Dave Stewart, musical
genius. Annie Lennox of Vocalists beyond vocalists.
235
00:19:37.880 --> 00:19:41.599
That's right. Any Lennox with the
rhythmics a song played to death on
236
00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:47.319
every radio station I believe, all
around the world. Yeah, dude,
237
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:52.799
it was global. It's it's global
like back to the eighties is going global.
238
00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:55.799
Now. Now here's a band.
I don't know if you remember this
239
00:19:55.880 --> 00:20:00.160
band. I'm pretty sure most of
our listeners will remember this band. And
240
00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:03.279
you know, the chang is hitting
you from the hip tonight the motels.
241
00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:07.799
Are you aware of that band?
That was a great band. A strong
242
00:20:07.920 --> 00:20:15.640
vocalist, totally strong. She was
also a very voluptuous, gorgeous looking brunette.
243
00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:22.279
And the song that that took it
home for them was in nineteen eighty
244
00:20:22.279 --> 00:20:26.759
two. This was one of their
harder cuts, Mission of Mercy. The
245
00:20:26.920 --> 00:20:32.559
piano in this is freaking phenomenal,
kind of like a billy Joel takes you
246
00:20:32.640 --> 00:20:48.480
back to that kind of burlesque type. That's what this video reminded me of.
247
00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:15.440
Listen, Well, it was definitely
a mix of music, wasn't it
248
00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:18.920
that harder? A little bit harder
rock with the synth in the background giving
249
00:21:18.960 --> 00:21:26.359
it that very just special new wave
vibe, kind of like a rendition something
250
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:32.079
David Bowie would have his hands in
that kind of a clay kind of mold
251
00:21:32.119 --> 00:21:34.880
of some type in music, wouldn't
you say so? Very David bob Oh,
252
00:21:34.960 --> 00:21:41.200
yeah, very David Bowie ish.
It just has that David Bowie ish
253
00:21:41.319 --> 00:21:45.079
feel. What do you got for
me? Next? How are you standing
254
00:21:45.079 --> 00:21:48.279
the bricks up to me? I'm
building a wall here, toscanell Oh,
255
00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:52.839
you better build it harder, because
up next is is A is a band
256
00:21:53.160 --> 00:22:02.039
of course that comes from the land
that produces so many, so, so
257
00:22:02.079 --> 00:22:07.680
many hits, And of course I'm
talking about UK. I'm listening to you.
258
00:22:07.759 --> 00:22:14.359
I'm the queen mother you morons.
Everything great is from here, including
259
00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:23.359
your potter who's dedicated to you.
Chang Oh, I hate that song.
260
00:22:30.759 --> 00:22:56.680
I don't want them to hoology Relax, Relax, as Frankie goes to Hollywood
261
00:22:56.680 --> 00:23:02.319
with relax, Now, tell me
what is the beef that you have with
262
00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:07.000
this song? Well? Where do
I start? If I was in Hollywood
263
00:23:07.039 --> 00:23:11.119
like I normally, where do you
think I would make him leave? Or
264
00:23:11.160 --> 00:23:15.839
I would go somewhere else. I
just I just couldn't do this band.
265
00:23:17.119 --> 00:23:22.920
I was not into the dance sound
oriented type synthesized music, so I thought
266
00:23:23.559 --> 00:23:30.160
them getting catapulted in the new way
there thought that they were something other than
267
00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:36.400
pop. I would put them probably
like Madonna, honestly, something of that
268
00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:41.119
nature too. Even with Wham,
the more material and the more type of
269
00:23:41.240 --> 00:23:44.920
music that you would dance to in
a club. I wouldn't put them in
270
00:23:44.920 --> 00:23:52.279
a new wave so as much as
as other people would, or they may
271
00:23:52.319 --> 00:23:55.680
have on Google. Well you know
what this is. But you know the
272
00:23:55.720 --> 00:24:02.039
fact of the matter is they were
really hardcore new wave synthpop up and you
273
00:24:02.039 --> 00:24:04.319
know, as a matter of fact, there nineteen eighty three debut album Relaxed,
274
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:10.079
which was this It was banned by
the BBC. On the BBC,
275
00:24:10.599 --> 00:24:15.759
Yeah, don't be a hater,
Oh man, don't is that the phone?
276
00:24:15.839 --> 00:24:18.720
Is that dicator trying to call?
I hope that's not dick hator you
277
00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:22.519
No, no, no, it's
not dick hat. They ended up also
278
00:24:22.559 --> 00:24:29.680
winning in nineteen eighty five the brit
Award for Best British Single with their debut
279
00:24:29.720 --> 00:24:34.400
album Welcome to Pleasure Dome. Frankie
Goes to Hollywood. Now that was a
280
00:24:34.480 --> 00:24:38.079
movie also, right, Welcome to
the Pleasure Dome. No, I think
281
00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:45.000
you're thinking of Max. What was
it mad Max? At something like that.
282
00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:51.319
I was that's right, I was
thinking of the Bunny Ranch in Oh
283
00:24:51.720 --> 00:24:55.079
my gosh. Yeah you were sorry
about that? Yeah, okay, my
284
00:24:55.240 --> 00:24:59.880
bad player. What else do you
got for me not to skon? Are
285
00:24:59.880 --> 00:25:02.400
you ready? Are you ready to
cringe? Now? I want you to
286
00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:03.680
do me a favor, Like you're
going to be in a plane crash.
287
00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:07.759
Put your head between your knees and
put your hands over your head. But
288
00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:08.799
by the way, I hate to
burst your bubble. But you know I'm
289
00:25:08.799 --> 00:25:11.720
not going to cringe because I really
really like new wave. All right,
290
00:25:11.759 --> 00:25:15.400
now, I'm gonna have to hit
you with this song. Okay, brother,
291
00:25:15.480 --> 00:25:19.640
this is another strong woman. The
Pretenders with Precious, I mean the
292
00:25:19.720 --> 00:25:26.400
Pretenders their first album. I'd say
there was at least maybe six hits on
293
00:25:26.519 --> 00:25:29.200
that, you know what I mean. But it was a rocking album.
294
00:25:29.240 --> 00:25:32.079
You bought that album, you know
where You're gonna get some ass kicking rock
295
00:25:32.119 --> 00:25:36.279
and roll. She was classified as
new wave, you know what I mean.
296
00:25:36.319 --> 00:25:38.960
But you know that was something I
always thought that was out of a
297
00:25:38.960 --> 00:25:45.960
touch, Just like when Jethro Tull
was voted as best Metal act for the
298
00:25:45.079 --> 00:25:51.759
year over Metallica. Pretenders they were
categorized as new wave, but I classify
299
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:55.640
them as hard rock. But we're
talking new wave. This is what was
300
00:25:55.680 --> 00:26:00.839
on the list, So I'd go
with the Pretenders with a great sexy of
301
00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:25.319
course, everybody's favorite, Chrissy High
and that magnificent background Batman. Hey,
302
00:26:25.319 --> 00:26:30.480
did you know that she came out
in an episode of the nineties hit show
303
00:26:30.559 --> 00:26:33.519
Friends. Yes, I did know
that, bro, and she looked pretty
304
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:36.759
hot. Yeah, because every time
that episode comes on, I always wonder,
305
00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:40.599
I know I've seen her. Well, obviously she's from the Pretenders of
306
00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:42.920
course. Anyway, this is back
to the eighties. When we come back,
307
00:26:44.000 --> 00:26:48.200
there's more talk of new wave and
a lot more That's right, don't
308
00:26:48.200 --> 00:26:52.880
you go anywhere, because we'll go
looking for you. We have the tools
309
00:26:52.960 --> 00:26:56.799
to go looking for you. When
the economy was good and the medal was
310
00:26:56.920 --> 00:27:07.039
heavy. Man, back to the
eighties and now back to the eighties with
311
00:27:07.240 --> 00:27:18.440
Tiscano and Chang. You're listening to
back to the eighties. This is Tiscanno
312
00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:23.400
from Tiscano and Chang. We were
talking about the eighties new wave craze.
313
00:27:23.400 --> 00:27:27.160
So if you just joined us,
thanks for doing that. We are talking
314
00:27:27.240 --> 00:27:33.799
with the Chang now about a subject
that has you know, it didn't really
315
00:27:33.880 --> 00:27:37.680
last too long as far as that
new wave didn't really remain too long with
316
00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:41.839
us. You know, We've got
what we got and that's about it.
317
00:27:41.680 --> 00:27:47.079
Nineteen eighty to nineteen eighty four,
and then of course afterwards there were some
318
00:27:47.200 --> 00:27:52.519
songs by those same bands, but
it just there weren't anything new coming out
319
00:27:52.680 --> 00:27:56.799
because of what happened in the nineties. But the following band is a British
320
00:27:57.519 --> 00:28:03.559
ska and pop band who falls into
the new wave craze as well. And
321
00:28:03.720 --> 00:28:11.640
it's a song by Madness from the
album The Rise and Fall, and the
322
00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:45.920
song is of course our House,
sister saying in this same not gonna be
323
00:28:45.000 --> 00:28:51.920
honest with you, Chang. This
song by Madness Our House falls into my
324
00:28:52.240 --> 00:29:00.920
top five of all time of all
genres. In my top five favorite's that's
325
00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:03.440
pretty cool. Madness was all right
with me, you know what I mean?
326
00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:07.279
My favorite song was one Step Beyond. As we know. I'm sure
327
00:29:07.400 --> 00:29:12.920
you think that a lot of my
radio presents the prowess I take just like
328
00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:18.759
missus Chang thinks every now and then
you go one step beyond. But then
329
00:29:18.799 --> 00:29:22.759
again I have to attribute it because
I did stand up comedy and you have
330
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:26.799
to go one step beyond. Of
course you always do. No. Now,
331
00:29:26.920 --> 00:29:32.960
my next, my next brick on
my wall of new wave kicks that
332
00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:37.160
get their kicks is this. I
have to bring up this band, even
333
00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:44.440
though it was it was a dedication
or it was a request from a guest
334
00:29:45.279 --> 00:29:52.559
that was on an FM station at
one time, and the band is Missing
335
00:29:52.680 --> 00:29:59.759
Persons. The Bosios, I mean
Dude Terry and Dale Bosio with Walking in
336
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:03.559
La. I mean that just you
listen to that song video or not,
337
00:30:03.880 --> 00:30:08.519
you just think about Los Angeles.
There everything about Los Angeles. The fashion,
338
00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:17.880
you know, was a bigger than
life. And actually I think she
339
00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:22.559
came out with the cup braw way
before Madonna, with the blonde hair,
340
00:30:23.119 --> 00:30:27.160
good looking kick. She had great
vocal range, her husband could pound on
341
00:30:27.279 --> 00:30:33.119
the drums like John Bonham. They
had the synthesized look. They were everything
342
00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:37.359
about La and they had the glitter. I think that was a great new
343
00:30:37.440 --> 00:30:40.799
wave band that was, you know, hands down, and I also think
344
00:30:40.839 --> 00:30:47.119
that this is one of the bands
that that really becomes a staple for that
345
00:30:47.359 --> 00:30:51.359
time of new wave and of Los
Angeles. Let's take a listen to Walking
346
00:30:51.519 --> 00:30:53.920
in La by Missing Persons, let's
take it back home to La Testas.
347
00:31:08.839 --> 00:31:15.279
She had a very particular way of
dressing, funky and very apropos for the
348
00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:19.880
new wave genre, of course,
with bleached hair and different colors, and
349
00:31:21.119 --> 00:31:29.240
with those gold cups for her bra
and gold pans sometimes and sometimes she wore
350
00:31:29.279 --> 00:31:33.680
coconuts. It was hot, it
was incredibly hot, you know. I
351
00:31:33.799 --> 00:31:37.279
thought it was captivating. It was
hot, it was fresh. You know,
352
00:31:37.519 --> 00:31:41.200
she stood on a ledge on her
own. She had no fear flash.
353
00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:45.880
Everything that is going to need to
draw attention. And if you've got
354
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:48.359
to get to the top, you
have to draw attention. Sometimes negative attention
355
00:31:48.440 --> 00:31:53.640
gives you positive attention. Sometimes whatever
you're doing is an attention, and that's
356
00:31:53.680 --> 00:31:56.400
what you want, that's what you
crave. That's what's going to put you
357
00:31:57.119 --> 00:32:01.160
out in the forefront above anybody else
that's doing the same dig that you're doing.
358
00:32:01.640 --> 00:32:04.880
Yeah, and I thought, man, they had it all together.
359
00:32:05.359 --> 00:32:07.519
She was pretty hot. She knew
how to move that mic, she knew
360
00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:10.640
how to captivate, she knew how
to dress the band. Knew how to
361
00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:15.759
dress the band. If you take
the band alone away from the poppiness,
362
00:32:15.319 --> 00:32:20.599
I mean, each player in that
band could hold their own Chops. That
363
00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:22.839
was a great band. You know
what I'm saying, my brother, Oh
364
00:32:22.920 --> 00:32:25.400
yeah, I love the band.
And if you love anything new wave,
365
00:32:27.079 --> 00:32:31.359
you're gonna love Missing Persons. Coming
up next, we have another one of
366
00:32:31.440 --> 00:32:35.799
my choices. It's it's you know, these songs, the ones that I
367
00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:38.519
chose, most of them are going
to be the ones that are played to
368
00:32:38.599 --> 00:32:43.440
death on the radio. They're just
play they're hacked away. But you know
369
00:32:43.519 --> 00:32:49.599
what these are. These are what
left footprints in our society worldwide, of
370
00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:55.920
course. And this following song is
a song that is interpreted throughout the history
371
00:32:57.160 --> 00:33:01.000
of eighties music. Cover bands galore
have ever this, It's been in movies.
372
00:33:01.480 --> 00:33:15.319
If you can tell me what it
is with me? Never step just
373
00:33:16.079 --> 00:33:36.640
to forget? How could you ever
get tired of listening to naked eyes with
374
00:33:36.799 --> 00:33:43.400
always something there to remind me?
Very easy step in an elevator and there
375
00:33:43.519 --> 00:33:45.880
on, and you're like, I
want to jump off this elevator. I'm
376
00:33:45.880 --> 00:33:47.680
going to climb through the trapdoor up
on top, just to get away from
377
00:33:47.960 --> 00:33:52.519
You're playing this ridiculous And there you
go, the hater is here? Are
378
00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:57.720
you telling me that you don't like
naked eyes with something there to remind me.
379
00:33:59.359 --> 00:34:02.839
Oh, I'm telling you and I'm
telling our listeners. I am not
380
00:34:02.960 --> 00:34:07.119
a fan of the Naked Eyes.
As a matter of fact, I wish
381
00:34:07.160 --> 00:34:09.320
it was naked voices, so I
wouldn't have what I think of What do
382
00:34:09.400 --> 00:34:22.679
you think of that? I have
this nagging pain in the middle of my
383
00:34:22.760 --> 00:34:25.880
head? Doctor, what is it? Oh? It's Naked Eyes? And
384
00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:30.199
I thought you were gonna love it? No? No, all right,
385
00:34:30.320 --> 00:34:43.480
I couldn't. You know what I
hate more than that? Sod covido?
386
00:34:43.679 --> 00:34:46.880
Yah? Well, I guess you
know. Not every genre is for every
387
00:34:46.960 --> 00:34:51.559
person, you know, this is
like thirty one flavors. No, so
388
00:34:51.800 --> 00:34:54.960
there's it's a big dead you could
choose. Can I have a coconut coin?
389
00:34:55.199 --> 00:34:59.360
A cone? No, I want
chocolate? I didn't say coconut,
390
00:34:59.760 --> 00:35:02.719
poor Naked Eyes. It's from their
album. By the way, that was
391
00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:07.199
from their album Burning Bridges. How
do you like that? Yeah? Yes
392
00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:10.800
it was. And I wish they
would have burned that album and never have
393
00:35:10.880 --> 00:35:15.079
recorded What do you think of that? This next band that I got to
394
00:35:15.119 --> 00:35:22.079
give it up to is Oh the
Bengals. These chicks could play, and
395
00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:28.400
good lord, what I would have
done just to be a roadie and when
396
00:35:28.440 --> 00:35:32.840
they came out with Walk like an
Egyptian. That song had all everybody,
397
00:35:34.519 --> 00:35:37.159
Uh, you know, everybody was
in a craze for that song. People
398
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:40.679
were trying to, you know,
dance like Egyptians. You know, you
399
00:35:40.760 --> 00:35:45.719
started seeing chicks put Egyptian makeup with
a hair, you know, Susannah Hoff
400
00:35:46.199 --> 00:35:52.280
looking ever so gorgeous like a Liz
Taylor. Was that eye makeup? Remember
401
00:35:52.360 --> 00:35:58.119
that the big earrings. Oh,
I would have loved to have played khula
402
00:35:58.159 --> 00:36:01.760
hoop with those ear rings with her
on you know what I'm and with and
403
00:36:01.880 --> 00:36:06.960
with your body, you probably could
have. So, you know what I
404
00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:12.760
gotta I gotta tell you though,
that's a low blow. That's a compliment
405
00:36:13.239 --> 00:36:16.800
that I was lean and mean you
just like you were. I saw that
406
00:36:16.960 --> 00:36:21.360
picture of you at the beach.
Did Erica Strata? Yeah, minus the
407
00:36:21.440 --> 00:36:24.639
muscles, minus the muscles of course. I was thirty years younger than Erica
408
00:36:24.679 --> 00:36:30.840
Strata. Yeah, that's something,
Erica Strata. I want Erica Strata on
409
00:36:30.880 --> 00:36:32.519
the on the show one night.
That would be. Yeah, well we're
410
00:36:32.559 --> 00:36:38.400
gonna do our best. Um,
we gotta get Corey. Corey, you're
411
00:36:38.440 --> 00:36:43.000
flaking on us. Come on,
Cory, get on the ball now.
412
00:36:43.079 --> 00:36:45.880
Curry's got too many things on his
mind right now. He's got too many
413
00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:49.679
plates spinning at the same time,
he's got a documentary coming up, and
414
00:36:49.760 --> 00:36:53.639
then he's got his album to deal
with. I'm looking I'm looking forward to
415
00:36:53.760 --> 00:36:57.599
see that dude, and I would
love for him to go on go on
416
00:36:57.679 --> 00:37:00.400
the show so we could talk to
him. Here. Check out that doc
417
00:37:00.559 --> 00:37:05.840
The Bengals, Susannah House at the
lead with walk like an Egyptian old on.
418
00:37:06.000 --> 00:37:12.159
Let me get the lotions like that, that sister room, then my
419
00:37:12.400 --> 00:37:22.519
Hardon, no Psycopos Cadillac out.
You know I can hear Susannah House and
420
00:37:22.639 --> 00:37:30.880
the Bengals anytime of the day of
next. Depeche Mode they're English electronic music
421
00:37:30.960 --> 00:37:37.519
band formed in Basilodon in nineteen eighty
The group the group trio with Dave Gone.
422
00:37:37.719 --> 00:37:40.679
Oh my gosh, I gotta tell
you, I gotta tell you and
423
00:37:40.719 --> 00:37:46.320
I'm being dead honest, David Gone
and People are People. Depeche Mode nineteen
424
00:37:46.400 --> 00:37:52.239
eighty four. One of my favorite
bands in the world. Check them out.
425
00:38:15.880 --> 00:38:20.239
Oh you gotta love that you got? That is the epitome, my
426
00:38:20.360 --> 00:38:27.199
friend, the epitome of new wave. I'd rather drop a fifty pound anvil
427
00:38:27.360 --> 00:38:30.639
on my testicles and listen to that
song or that entire album. Do you
428
00:38:30.760 --> 00:38:35.519
understand what? Depeche Mode release their
debut album, Speaking Spell on n eighteen
429
00:38:35.559 --> 00:38:38.559
eighty one, bringing the band into
the British new wave scene. Like I
430
00:38:38.679 --> 00:38:43.760
said, whenever I hear Depeche Mode, it pumps me up, almost like
431
00:38:43.920 --> 00:38:46.880
listening to White Snake with Here We
Go Again. I mean, it just
432
00:38:47.119 --> 00:38:51.639
pumps me up. God. Now, first of all, put your shirt
433
00:38:51.719 --> 00:38:53.800
back on, because I know I
watched you take it off as you were
434
00:38:53.880 --> 00:38:58.079
dancing. I had to, I
had to do of this song. That's
435
00:38:58.199 --> 00:39:01.800
right. I would rather have an
anvil dropped on my testicles then to listen
436
00:39:01.880 --> 00:39:07.119
to this band. This is not
Chantastic, chang terrific or Changley in any
437
00:39:07.159 --> 00:39:12.000
way. But I get Matt props
to anybody that did like them. Is
438
00:39:12.039 --> 00:39:15.719
they did have that new wave sound
all the way through. Just wasn't my
439
00:39:15.840 --> 00:39:20.159
cup of tea. You know,
Chang. Next time we're in the car
440
00:39:20.360 --> 00:39:24.360
together, I'm gonna drive by Sunset
Boulevard or Hollywood Boulevard. You take your
441
00:39:24.400 --> 00:39:29.079
pink, we're gonna put the top
down, and then we're gonna bless this.
442
00:39:34.320 --> 00:39:37.679
Get a convertible so I could throw
my hair into the wind. Well,
443
00:39:37.719 --> 00:39:38.960
that's why I said, we're gonna
put the top down, but we
444
00:39:39.079 --> 00:39:44.400
both have to drop like a right, said Fred. So I take it
445
00:39:44.559 --> 00:39:47.360
you are not a fan of Depeche
Mode. How dare you? You know
446
00:39:47.480 --> 00:39:53.440
what? I had an opportunity to
go see Depeche Mode, and here we
447
00:39:53.559 --> 00:39:58.199
go. I can feel it coming. I had to make a lie up
448
00:39:58.239 --> 00:40:02.719
and said I drank too much pepto
bismo because I couldn't poop, And now
449
00:40:02.840 --> 00:40:07.719
I'm can't stop pooping, so I
can't go with you to the show.
450
00:40:08.880 --> 00:40:12.880
And there, yes, no,
no, no, I've got a song
451
00:40:13.039 --> 00:40:16.519
here. It wasn't one of my
favorites. This is probably number one of
452
00:40:16.679 --> 00:40:27.119
my least favorite song back in nineteen
the eighty Realm. Now this is nineteen
453
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:31.039
eighty four, February of my birthday, which even hits me over the head
454
00:40:31.159 --> 00:40:37.760
twice as bad as me hitting my
head at a five foot door frame from
455
00:40:37.800 --> 00:40:42.360
the floor to the top. This
song is Are you ready for this one?
456
00:40:42.400 --> 00:40:44.880
I know you remember it? Okay, Now take off your shirt,
457
00:40:44.960 --> 00:40:52.599
show me your hairy armpits, because
this is Nanna Hoggin ninety nine loof Balloons
458
00:40:52.159 --> 00:40:58.840
No, this song irritates me.
It reminds me of like a bunk kids
459
00:40:58.960 --> 00:41:02.239
party where there's no clown. They're
just putting balloons up and then this chick
460
00:41:02.320 --> 00:41:07.880
takes up her you know, she's
slipped in her arms, she had she
461
00:41:07.079 --> 00:41:13.159
had more hair under her arms roll
than I did at that time in the
462
00:41:13.320 --> 00:41:17.400
eighties. Yes, and she ruins
every single thing about her. You know,
463
00:41:17.480 --> 00:41:21.639
when I saw this video for the
very first time, I was so
464
00:41:22.360 --> 00:41:27.320
attracted to Nina and when I saw
this come out here you go listen to
465
00:41:27.400 --> 00:41:49.360
this. So I'm listening to this
and they're watching the video and lo and
466
00:41:49.480 --> 00:41:55.559
behold she raises her arms and I
it's like, my world felt. It's
467
00:41:55.599 --> 00:42:01.000
like finding out that Santa Claus doesn't
exist. Yeah, she had Santa Claus
468
00:42:01.480 --> 00:42:15.800
beard hair under her arms. That's
all bad, it was. Yeah,
469
00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:22.039
So that's Nina with ninety nine baloons
and yeah, she also made this song
470
00:42:22.519 --> 00:42:27.199
in English, which is basically called
ninety nine bloons. It's so watered down
471
00:42:27.280 --> 00:42:30.239
when you say it like that.
It's like going to talk about can I
472
00:42:30.280 --> 00:42:34.599
have a takedo a taco? Can
I get a verrita? No, don't
473
00:42:34.679 --> 00:42:37.760
say it like that. Well,
the way she says, that is nine.
474
00:42:38.039 --> 00:42:43.519
That's right, and give her her
respect. The woman had hair under
475
00:42:43.559 --> 00:42:45.519
her arms, no one I respect, but first she can shave. Then
476
00:42:45.559 --> 00:42:50.119
she came up. She can give
my rich respect. Now, Tiscano,
477
00:42:50.199 --> 00:42:53.679
could you imagine making passionate love to
her and then both of you have sweat
478
00:42:53.719 --> 00:42:58.400
beads coming from you know what.
I am a married man and I do
479
00:42:58.639 --> 00:43:02.119
not want to even pick that I'm
talking. I still don't want to picture
480
00:43:02.159 --> 00:43:07.000
that because the harry arms, like
I said, it was like finding out
481
00:43:07.360 --> 00:43:12.599
Santa Claus never existed. It was
It's like finding out Sasquatch was sleeping in
482
00:43:12.679 --> 00:43:17.119
your bed and masturbating. That's so
wrong, that's so wrong. If you
483
00:43:17.239 --> 00:43:21.880
just joined us here at the madness
of Tiscano and changing back to the eighties,
484
00:43:21.920 --> 00:43:27.199
we're talking about the craze that the
new wave generation left for all of
485
00:43:27.320 --> 00:43:31.079
us and the chang so I brought
to you one of the bands that you
486
00:43:31.320 --> 00:43:35.480
hated, which is one of my
favorite bands of all time, which was
487
00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:38.320
Depeche Mode. We just talked about
him. But now are you ready?
488
00:43:38.480 --> 00:43:43.400
Are you ready for this? No? I can't wait to see your face
489
00:43:44.039 --> 00:43:47.639
as soon as I start playing this
song. I'm gonna give you a few
490
00:43:47.760 --> 00:43:53.000
moments just to kind of bask in
the ambience of what this song is bringing
491
00:43:53.079 --> 00:43:57.599
to the table. Here we go, my friend and Joy, because I
492
00:43:57.719 --> 00:44:24.679
know you're gonna love raps on the
ground Fred Targets, Oh that's right.
493
00:44:24.719 --> 00:44:30.280
You can hear the chain tucking in
the background because he just loves Robert Smith
494
00:44:30.440 --> 00:44:34.760
is remind me of Saw and and
And what he's doing is uh, he's
495
00:44:34.840 --> 00:44:38.320
doing a promo for Target on it. You know. This song is called
496
00:44:38.840 --> 00:44:43.960
the Walk and it's by the queue
or there at least as a stand alone.
497
00:44:45.039 --> 00:44:47.880
Was released as a stand alone single
in July of nineteen eighty three,
498
00:44:49.239 --> 00:44:53.079
and it later appeared on the compilation
album Japanese Whispers. This was from the
499
00:44:53.239 --> 00:44:59.880
B side of the Dream the Upstairs
Room Lament. I wish everybody would have
500
00:45:00.039 --> 00:45:02.880
whispered this crap band. This guy
scares the hell out of me. I
501
00:45:02.960 --> 00:45:08.280
don't like clowns for some reason.
Bringing Brothers and Barnum and Bailey's Circus freaked
502
00:45:08.320 --> 00:45:13.320
me out. One time when my
parents thought it would be cool to get
503
00:45:13.400 --> 00:45:17.559
good seats by the ringside because I
wanted to see gunther Gable Williams. The
504
00:45:17.719 --> 00:45:22.360
blonde Stallion would semi long haired,
tame wild beasts, clowns and me,
505
00:45:22.679 --> 00:45:27.280
no do it, my wife.
Now, let me tell you this band
506
00:45:27.559 --> 00:45:30.639
was inducted into the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame finally after so many years,
507
00:45:30.880 --> 00:45:35.559
in twenty nineteen. And also,
let me give you an interesting fact.
508
00:45:36.239 --> 00:45:40.039
My very first concert ever, I
was fourteen years old at the Los
509
00:45:40.119 --> 00:45:45.599
Angeles Forum. I went to go
see with my buddy The Cure. Really
510
00:45:46.039 --> 00:45:52.039
incredible. They performed incredibly, They
had a great show. Now I'm not
511
00:45:52.119 --> 00:45:55.559
a fan of every one of their
songs, but a man and also Robert
512
00:45:55.599 --> 00:46:00.519
Smith, I granted to you,
although his aaron's has changed quite a bit
513
00:46:00.639 --> 00:46:07.679
and he is quite scary today,
but his voice remains exactly the same.
514
00:46:07.679 --> 00:46:14.360
You could say that, or you
could also say saw fourteen starring Robert Smith,
515
00:46:14.960 --> 00:46:19.760
as he represents a target. I'm
gonna have to tell you, Tisconnell,
516
00:46:22.599 --> 00:46:25.119
you love The Cure, don't you
Let me ask you something. If
517
00:46:25.159 --> 00:46:29.920
you had a chance to go see
The Cure or Depeche Mode, which group
518
00:46:29.960 --> 00:46:34.760
would you choose. I'd rather go
get venereal disease off of a five dollar
519
00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:37.960
prostitute and not go to either show
because I'd be in the er getting b
520
00:46:38.119 --> 00:46:43.679
twelve shots in both cheeks. That's
what I would rather do. Such a
521
00:46:43.760 --> 00:46:47.760
hater, tisconnoll. You, you, my friend, are making me the
522
00:46:47.920 --> 00:46:55.679
hater that I don't want to be. Please the cure. What are they
523
00:46:55.760 --> 00:47:00.000
the cure for? I'm not sick, certainly they're not. They make me
524
00:47:00.239 --> 00:47:05.440
sick. How are they my cure? Explain that to me? Tusky,
525
00:47:05.559 --> 00:47:07.559
my friend, I'm going to give
you one more because you keep giving me.
526
00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:14.039
I'm going to have to get my
cold and camping uh toilet out and
527
00:47:14.239 --> 00:47:17.480
sit there as you keep hitting me
with songs that you're hitting me with.
528
00:47:21.440 --> 00:47:24.199
Okay, Oh, are you ready
for this one? I have to It's
529
00:47:24.199 --> 00:47:30.760
a must. Okay, I'm gonna
go with the go gos ready, you
530
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:35.320
know what I mean, the go
goes, my brother, you have to
531
00:47:35.440 --> 00:47:40.559
go back to kay And we got
the beat that was one of the most
532
00:47:40.679 --> 00:47:49.280
populoust kind of girl enhancing. We
got the spirit we can do it type
533
00:47:49.800 --> 00:47:53.320
songs had the cheerleader kind of a
sound which kind of mean to me,
534
00:47:53.440 --> 00:47:58.559
brought out Tony Basil, you know
what I mean, had that kind of
535
00:47:58.599 --> 00:48:04.159
a feel. But and if you
give it up to the Bengals musicianship wise,
536
00:48:04.280 --> 00:48:07.800
they were all pretty talented, you
know, all of them could sing.
537
00:48:07.760 --> 00:48:14.440
Belinda Carlisle could sing. She was
almost kind of like that cute southern
538
00:48:14.559 --> 00:48:17.400
California beach chick. All of them
kind of were. Me and Missus Chang
539
00:48:17.480 --> 00:48:22.760
went and saw a band called the
Blue Bonnets, and I believe the guitar
540
00:48:22.880 --> 00:48:27.960
player and the bass player of the
Go Gos in later years played in that
541
00:48:28.079 --> 00:48:31.800
band, and it was an all
girl ensemble of blues rock and they they
542
00:48:32.000 --> 00:48:38.159
wailed at home. It was not
long after ray Vaughn's fifth year anniversary of
543
00:48:38.280 --> 00:48:45.960
debt that we went to go see
this show. We also saw John Mayer
544
00:48:45.119 --> 00:48:52.519
play with Stevie ray Vaughn's band Double
Trouble. A great show. But the
545
00:48:52.800 --> 00:48:55.760
but the Go Gos they could hold
their own. I mean everything they touched
546
00:48:55.800 --> 00:48:59.800
back into early eighties was gold.
You know. The last year, during
547
00:48:59.800 --> 00:49:02.360
the lockdown, I believe around the
month of September or so, the Go
548
00:49:02.559 --> 00:49:08.039
Goes performed this particular song we got
to beat um, you know, doing
549
00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:10.599
it from zoom. Who would have
ever thought we would get to see the
550
00:49:10.679 --> 00:49:14.760
Go Goes and let me bring it
in. You're ready for this? Yeah,
551
00:49:15.400 --> 00:49:19.760
put your ears to the MIC's everybody
and grab your shoes, because it's
552
00:49:19.840 --> 00:49:22.360
time to rock and roll. It's
time to get up and go. Go
553
00:49:22.039 --> 00:49:25.400
right here with we got to beat, right here with this gotta what give
554
00:49:25.440 --> 00:50:07.559
back to the eighties. We got
we never stopped, didn't hurt, didn't
555
00:50:07.599 --> 00:50:14.360
hurt, didn't hurt, non stop, unforgettable memories from the eighties. Stop
556
00:50:14.480 --> 00:50:23.400
back to the eighties. Welcome back
to back to the eighties, siskano and
557
00:50:23.519 --> 00:50:28.800
Chang Chang. Here you just heard
the beautiful boat into Carlisle with the go
558
00:50:29.000 --> 00:50:32.039
gos we got to beat, taking
you back to nineteen eighty one, and
559
00:50:32.280 --> 00:50:37.360
we are talking about new wave tonight. Now, Tiscano I would have loved
560
00:50:37.400 --> 00:50:43.559
to play Twister was a go goes
back then. How about you? Speaking
561
00:50:43.559 --> 00:50:46.480
of playing twister? Here is a
band. I guess you could say this
562
00:50:46.679 --> 00:50:52.039
is probably their their biggest hit,
only hit, although they had another song
563
00:50:52.119 --> 00:50:59.480
that the radio stations played, but
this was probably their only huge hit.
564
00:50:59.599 --> 00:51:01.960
And then and after that, you
know, I think they play at birthday
565
00:51:02.039 --> 00:51:07.519
parties and such nice wedding singer type
crap. This is safety dance with men
566
00:51:07.599 --> 00:51:25.599
without hats. H I gotta admit, Chang although I didn't like any other
567
00:51:25.679 --> 00:51:30.519
song but this one from Men Without
Hats. Whenever this song would come on,
568
00:51:30.679 --> 00:51:34.119
I would have to pump up the
volume because it was just something about
569
00:51:34.199 --> 00:51:37.119
the song that was so different and
so happy about it, and yet it's
570
00:51:37.280 --> 00:51:43.159
just very melodic. I didn't know
what it was, but it became so
571
00:51:43.400 --> 00:51:47.239
popular. This is a song that
is even a hit today. You know
572
00:51:47.360 --> 00:51:50.679
what, dude, he had a
really good voice. It was a pretty
573
00:51:50.719 --> 00:51:54.360
cool melodic song. Uh, the
Midget would freak me out every now and
574
00:51:54.400 --> 00:52:00.239
then. Yeah, you know what, the midget freak of You know.
575
00:52:00.800 --> 00:52:06.480
The The video in itself was kind
of a kind of strange, kind of
576
00:52:06.639 --> 00:52:09.039
very movie ish. It kind of
took you back to the Renaissance. It
577
00:52:09.159 --> 00:52:15.199
was like going to the Renaissance fair
on acid, where you were on intrigue
578
00:52:15.719 --> 00:52:20.320
and horrified at some of the acts
you may stumble across. It was some
579
00:52:20.719 --> 00:52:25.880
creepy carnival in the medieval times.
Yeah, that's what was crazy. It
580
00:52:25.920 --> 00:52:30.840
would have made a hell of a
video game, don't you think so?
581
00:52:30.239 --> 00:52:34.599
Yeah? Stands stands stand dude,
do do do do do do do?
582
00:52:35.199 --> 00:52:38.159
And you could be advancing and scoring
points. Maybe if you hit the midget
583
00:52:38.199 --> 00:52:40.599
over the head with a helmet,
you get a pot of gold or something
584
00:52:40.719 --> 00:52:44.840
like that. Maybe if you could
cut his hair. He had hair like
585
00:52:45.000 --> 00:52:47.360
Michael Hutchins of in excess, I'll
give the guy that much. He did
586
00:52:47.480 --> 00:52:51.960
kind of look like him. Yeah, he did resemble Michael Hutchins. He
587
00:52:52.079 --> 00:52:53.599
had that good look going for him, and he had a really good voice.
588
00:52:54.079 --> 00:52:58.760
It's a shame that they didn't go
any farther than I think that album
589
00:52:58.840 --> 00:53:00.800
in that song, correct, right, I mean they did. Like I
590
00:53:00.840 --> 00:53:06.480
said, they had another song that
radio stations would play, but it sounded
591
00:53:06.599 --> 00:53:12.519
so bubblegummish, and so I want
to say infantile just something that you would
592
00:53:12.559 --> 00:53:16.960
find at a at a child's circus, so not the real circus, so
593
00:53:17.079 --> 00:53:22.679
not the big boy circus, but
the children's section. And then you'd play
594
00:53:22.760 --> 00:53:25.320
that song for like birthday parties in
that little children's section, almost like a
595
00:53:25.480 --> 00:53:30.280
child playing the game Simon where there's
only four buttons four keys. Did he
596
00:53:30.719 --> 00:53:34.960
did? He? You know?
He also remembered Billy Squire, I mean
597
00:53:35.079 --> 00:53:42.320
he resembled Billy's Squire was a great
musician though. Billy Squire, Yeah,
598
00:53:42.840 --> 00:53:45.920
Billy Squire was a great musician,
a great writer, but when he put
599
00:53:46.079 --> 00:53:52.559
on a net type fabric shirt like
a football jersey and rolled around on the
600
00:53:52.639 --> 00:53:57.159
floor with tight pedal pusher white pants, I thought, you know what,
601
00:53:57.320 --> 00:54:00.960
Billy, you little, you lost
a little, You lost me for a
602
00:54:01.079 --> 00:54:06.440
bit. Very true. And here's
a song by the British band the Thompson
603
00:54:06.519 --> 00:54:12.239
Twins that was actually written after I
believe an argument between the lead singer,
604
00:54:12.760 --> 00:54:19.559
who was Tom Bailey, and his
significant other Alana, and it was written
605
00:54:19.599 --> 00:54:23.360
as a result of an argument that
was resolved between them both. And that
606
00:54:23.599 --> 00:54:27.920
was, of course none other than
the song hold Me Now by the Thompson
607
00:54:28.000 --> 00:54:52.599
Twins Fights and Lightenses We Cry,
released November eleven, nineteen eighty three,
608
00:54:53.039 --> 00:54:59.599
from the album Into the Gap The
Thompson Twins would Hold Me Now became and
609
00:54:59.760 --> 00:55:06.280
that it'll hit and peeking at number
three on the Billboard Hot one hundred in
610
00:55:06.519 --> 00:55:12.760
May, and it stood on that
chart for twenty one weeks. Yeah,
611
00:55:12.880 --> 00:55:21.199
I remember that. I also remember
what happened to their eyebrows. And they
612
00:55:21.280 --> 00:55:24.239
still sing and they're still great man, the Thompson Twins. Well, I
613
00:55:24.360 --> 00:55:28.559
will tell you this about the Thompson
Twins. It's a good thing. There's
614
00:55:28.599 --> 00:55:32.280
twins to keep each other company because
I wouldn't go sit with them. Oh
615
00:55:32.480 --> 00:55:38.719
my gosh, and there it is
again. This has been back to the
616
00:55:38.840 --> 00:55:43.920
eighties. I'm Tiscano from Tiscano and
Chang. I want to thank you guys
617
00:55:43.960 --> 00:55:49.400
for having joined us here on another
Friday. As we continued the talk of
618
00:55:49.599 --> 00:55:54.199
new wave, as I got Chang
even more changry with my favorite bands.
619
00:55:54.239 --> 00:55:58.000
And I bet there were bands you
didn't know there were some of my favorite
620
00:55:58.039 --> 00:55:59.639
bands in the world, did you, Chang. You know what? I
621
00:55:59.719 --> 00:56:04.199
had no idea because every time I
see what I think of Dean Martin and
622
00:56:04.320 --> 00:56:07.159
Frank Sinatra. Nah. Well,
that's what's so great about back to the
623
00:56:07.280 --> 00:56:12.480
eighties. Surprises all around. But
you know what, like I said before,
624
00:56:12.639 --> 00:56:17.039
thirty one flavors, there's thirty one
flavors of music going around and on
625
00:56:17.159 --> 00:56:21.519
behalf of Tuscano. I want to
wish you the safest and happiest of weeks.
626
00:56:22.360 --> 00:56:23.719
Take care of yourself, take care
of your neighbors, take care of
627
00:56:23.800 --> 00:56:30.920
your family because you only got one. Take care and God bless Chang here
628
00:56:30.000 --> 00:56:36.320
everybody on the hang for the weekend
before I release you to another chang tastic
629
00:56:36.400 --> 00:56:40.960
weekend. Remember we are all we
have, get each other's back and do
630
00:56:42.119 --> 00:56:46.320
something bigger than yourself. Remember to
always stay lifted and gifted. No matter
631
00:56:46.400 --> 00:56:50.760
who you are or what you have, it could be worse. Somebody could
632
00:56:50.800 --> 00:56:54.079
have it worse than you have.
And remember pay attention to what's going out
633
00:56:54.119 --> 00:56:58.679
there. Stay healthy, do your
part to take care of your fellow neighbor,
634
00:56:58.800 --> 00:57:04.400
your family member, and always be
a damn good human. I want
635
00:57:04.400 --> 00:57:12.079
to wish you all an adios,
anariba astamanyana sayanara, and to all my
636
00:57:12.320 --> 00:57:15.320
homies in the hood or so.
That's why
1
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:41.920
Oh, that's right. Everybody wants
to rule the world, Yes they do.
2
00:00:42.039 --> 00:00:45.240
That's tears for fears everybody. This
is Cliff Cliverston on the one that
3
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:49.799
only Kate hits ninety five point nine. We have a very special guest,
4
00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:53.759
and this very special guest comes from
the underworld. That's right, the underworld.
5
00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:56.439
You've heard this right. A lot
of people like to paint him red
6
00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:00.960
with horns, but today he is
dressed in an LA Round sweatshirt and an
7
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:06.560
Los Angeles Dodger's hat. Shall we
call you dark Prince or Dark Lord?
8
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:14.120
What would you prefer call me?
Master? I am the one and only
9
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:22.599
keeper of the gate. I believe
I have your partner's soul. You can't
10
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:29.400
even come in and sit at the
studio you have me sitting with this valley
11
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:34.560
boy. Hello Clifton. Okay,
well, everybody wants to rule the world,
12
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:37.480
don't they? Let me ask you? What is the what don't we
13
00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:40.840
give this motive today for you coming
out here? Well, as you know,
14
00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:46.480
I usually come to collect souls.
Bon Scott, I've got him.
15
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:51.799
I've got Richard Pryor soul. So
basically, what you're trying to tell us
16
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:55.799
is you're here to collect souls.
Yes, I thought that job belonged to
17
00:01:55.840 --> 00:02:00.239
somebody else. But anyway, on
that note, we are here celebrating new
18
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:02.640
wave music today, and is there
a particular new wave song that you prefer?
19
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:07.000
I love them all. I created
the music that that other guy hates,
20
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:13.479
Clifford. I created boy George because
people would hate you. What are
21
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:15.479
your plans today? What are your
particular do you want to do today?
22
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:20.680
Today? I'm going to go to
the golf course, so Mortabello Golf Course
23
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:27.800
off the sixty Freeway, and I'm
gonna go eighteen, have some drinks and
24
00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:35.080
meet up with a splendid young thirty
yield named Brandy Branderson. And then I
25
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:38.680
think I'll get a burrito or something
like that. Maybe I'll drive through traffic
26
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:43.240
and watch people get angry. I'm
going to take souls with you, and
27
00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:49.919
we are going back three eighties when
everything was free. See what five years
28
00:02:49.960 --> 00:03:19.319
Clifford loves One point, It's Friday, and you're with back to the eighties.
29
00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:22.599
Just kind of one chang the show
that introduces the eighties to a whole
30
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:27.199
new generation, taking us back to
a time when life was much simpler,
31
00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:31.960
much more dangerous, but it was
a whole lot of fun. We're here
32
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:36.400
Friday on all platforms, and we
thank you for taking the time to join

today as he is every single Friday, Ladies and gentlemen, is a man
36
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:53.000
that has told more jokes than Bill
Cosby on Date Night. He is a
37
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:59.479
man that has taught mister Miyagi the
crane. Move we here and back to
38
00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:02.960
the eighties. Call him the Chang. Yes, boys and girls, ladies
39
00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:10.199
and gentlemen, Ladies of the eighties, rivet heads and earth dogs, preppies
40
00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:15.600
and everyone that joined me that wore
op pants. It is I the legend,
41
00:04:15.600 --> 00:04:19.959
in my own mind, the Chang, the second driver to this vehicle
42
00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:25.079
of zaniness. And before we start
to show, I want to Scanno to
43
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:28.399
bow his head, close his eyes
and he will get a big surprise.
44
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:33.560
Tiscano, are you ready for a
surprise? Please, Siscanno, get ready
45
00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:39.360
for a suprise? Right, I'm
ready, Ladies and gentlemen, in this
46
00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:43.639
corner, you weigh one hundred ninety
four pounds of pure muscle and Italian sauce.

00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:48.800
Dressing to Scanno Tusky and there's other
round waging a cool one sixty five.
48

meanest creature since the snail on the
49
00:04:55.439 --> 00:05:00.319
slug the chang as the bell will
rang lots, get ready to rum.

to music, new wave girl against guy.
52
00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:18.199
What do you think about that?
I will play the girl because I
53
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:21.680
have beautiful flowing long hair that you
do. I'm glad you. I'm glad

you far and beyond any type of
challenge you've ever had, any type it's
76
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:18.040
going to be. It's going to
be tougher than the speedo contests you had
77
00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:23.759
in nineteen eighty six. It's going
to be tougher than the how much baby
78
00:07:23.800 --> 00:07:28.040
oil can you put on one bicep
contest that you were at Venice Beach I
79
00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:31.439
heard about in nineteen eighty seven.
It's going to be something that's going to
80
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:36.800
dazzle you, to make you feel
like you need to go back to Italy
81
00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:43.839
and start all over. I'm going
to hit you tonight with my top five
82
00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:49.800
female artists of new wave and their
top song. What do you think of
83
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:53.920
that? Bow? That sounds excellent? But before we do that, we
84
00:07:53.959 --> 00:07:56.920
do want to give some special shout
outs tonight. Oh yes, please do
85
00:07:57.319 --> 00:07:59.759
start us off, my good friend. I want to give a very special
86
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:03.800
out out if you are listening from
Canada, from Spain, from Ireland and
87
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:09.800
Brazil, and let's do one more
country just after. Let's spend the wheel
88
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:15.319
here. And also a big shout
out if you're listening to us directly from
89
00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:20.160
Madagascar. Wow. Now that was
a great, a great movie. I
90
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:24.160
watched that with my grandchildren. Madagascar. Hey, let's give a shout out
91
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:28.800
to Germany, Austria, the UK
of Mexico. Let's give a shout out
92
00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:33.720
to Southern Californa. Order homies,
what's up everybody in Northern California, Central
93
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:39.399
California, Utah. Remember we have
Rob Roy out there listening to us in
94
00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:45.919
Utah, who is now also sitting
in the ABC sound booth. Can you
95
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:50.879
dig that? Oh hey, A
big shout out to the Robs, Rob
96
00:08:50.960 --> 00:08:52.399
Roy. I miss that cat man. We did some good rock and roll
97
00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:56.879
shows man back in the days of
the A r B. That's right,
98
00:08:56.960 --> 00:09:00.159
the former a ARB. We won't
go into anything else all, so I
99
00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:03.120
want to give a shout out to
a good buddy of ours that we met
100
00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:07.720
at AARB. Remember Big Gus Gustavo. Yet apparently he was involved in a
101
00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:15.240
very bad traffic accident and he's trying
to heal up right now. He's got
102
00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:18.200
himself into a wheelchair. It was
a pretty bad situation. I want to
103
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:22.519
give him a special shout up from
the bottom of my heart and let him
104
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:26.080
know that we haven't forgot him.
And as soon as he's healed up,
105
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:30.600
maybe he can give us a buzz
and give us the homely aspect of back
106
00:09:30.639 --> 00:09:35.080
to the eighties, because you know, he looks like he's swinging maybe thirty,
107
00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:35.919
but you know, come on,
bro, he was back in the
108
00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:39.440
eighties. He can't lie to us. Oh yeah, yeah, I remember.

Montebello, California that attended Saint Benedicts
with me today as we were mentioning we're
123
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:45.840
gonna be talking about nineteen eighty three, nineteen eighty four new wave music.
124
00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:50.399
On this train of new wave.
I've mentioned to you many times, you
125
00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:54.399
know, even in private conversations just
between you and me, I've never pictured
126
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:58.480
you the type of guy that would
be listening at any time, at any
127
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:05.519
point in life to music. Well, my partner, my partner in crime,
128
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:09.639
I will explain this. You know, music is everything to me.
129
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:15.279
As I've grown up every decade of
my life. I can recall pretty much
130
00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:18.879
most of the bands, the music, the songs, and the artists of
131
00:11:18.919 --> 00:11:22.159
that decade. You know, my
preference is of the rock and roll,
132
00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:26.200
and the rock and roll comes in
many genres, from the blues rock and
133
00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:28.480
roll to the hard rock and roll, to the metal to the dark black
134
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:33.960
metal, all the way to the
alternative and yes, the new wave.
135
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:39.000
My love of the new wave is
because why are we doing this show the
136
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:43.320
eighties? You have to know the
chang is the lover of music, correct,
137
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:48.679
just like you? Sure? So
that means we as lovers of music
138
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:52.559
are like wine lovers, cheese lovers, alcohol lovers, lovers of fine things.
139
00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:56.759
To where we're going to go and
take a nibble of this and nibble
140
00:11:56.759 --> 00:12:00.919
of that experience, put it in
our taste, bud and see if we
141
00:12:01.039 --> 00:12:03.279
like that. I find that with
music new wave, there are a lot
142
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:07.960
of bands that I do really dig
in new wave, and that's because I
143
00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:13.759
seen that they have the musicianship,
they have the intellect, they have the
144
00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:18.480
key with what needs to be made
at that particular time, and a certain
145
00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:24.039
experience that they went through that's going
to capture the attention. So there's certain
146
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:28.039
bands that were in the new wave
era that I thought were of that relevance.
147
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:33.840
So tonight I'm going to lay it
on your feet with your booty socks
148
00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:37.279
and all, kick off your shoes, show me your booty socks, and
149
00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:39.440
tonight we're going to get down in
dirty. All right, Well, I'm
150
00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:46.159
ready willing enable man. Okay,
my very first new wave female artists,
151
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:50.320
and tonight I'm going female because the
chicks, they knows how to get damn
152
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:54.000
kicks, you know what I'm saying. The eighties ladies brought it. And
153
00:12:54.159 --> 00:13:00.440
this first band is Berlin out of
southern California, I believe, and their
154
00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:07.039
very first hit was Metro. I
remember seeing Berlin at my grad night at
155
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:13.039
Saint Benedict's in nineteen eighty three.
I saw them and I stayed for the
156
00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:16.879
whole set night. I was enthralled, and I was into every tune that
157
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:22.399
they did. Synthesized rock sometimes goes
bad. Sometimes it doesn't are as great
158
00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:26.840
Berlin. The way they put it
together and it was a live show,
159
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:31.399
it worked really well. I gave
her props. Off the chick and carry
160
00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:35.600
a note. She could take you
up and down and all around. And
161
00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:39.240
she was a hot looking chick.
Herlin was great. When when the first
162
00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:43.639
time? Now do you remember Berlin
being on MTV at all? Because I
163
00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:48.639
believe it or not, I don't
remember any videos from her. Yes.
164
00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:52.440
As a matter of fact, Metro
was their very first video. It was
165
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:56.759
a black and white scenario. She
was sitting on a train. You get
166
00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:01.000
glances of her hotness, her blondness, and you know what I mean.
167
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:05.919
It's kind of the way they did
move of videos back there. Everybody can
168
00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:09.519
relate, you know. They kind
of did it almost into a movie,
169
00:14:09.960 --> 00:14:18.039
a mini movie type set it right, but Berlin Metro actually was made to
170
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:22.639
look like she was on a train
telling a story. You know. They
171
00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:28.759
showed the band members periodically on flashes
and they were carrying they were wearing Colombo
172
00:14:28.879 --> 00:14:35.240
overcoats and black hats kind of shadowed
in their faces, kind of you know,
173
00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:37.919
mysterious, seductive looking. She was
a hot looking chick. I'll tell
174
00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:43.759
you that. Listen in so people
can get an idea, especially people that
175
00:14:43.840 --> 00:15:11.159
have never heard Berlin with the metro. Oh hear the synthesizer in the background,
176
00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:13.600
wasn't it? You know, it
was a great album and it was
177
00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:18.960
a great time, you know music. Like I say, the synthesizer kind
178
00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:22.200
of made some bands and it kind
of broke some bands, kind of cheapened
179
00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:24.759
some bands, you know. And
we can go in. I can go
180
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:28.120
into so many artists where I can
give a name and I don't want to
181
00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:31.320
be dick hater, but I enjoy
being the hater every now and then on
182
00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:35.799
bands where synthesized music just didn't,
uh, you know, go hand in
183
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:41.440
hand with the style that where they
already had promoted or the style that you
184
00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:45.759
knew they could take it, but
they went synthesizer, you know what I'm
185
00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:50.360
saying. A band and another great
band was the B fifty twos. Now
186
00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:54.919
the B fifty twos, you know, the main lean singer you know who
187
00:15:54.960 --> 00:15:58.440
he was, mister famous, you
know what I mean? He had such
188
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:02.679
a voice at how could you even
be a co lead singer in a band
189
00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:07.480
with that guy? Such an eclectic
type voice, something totally different, to
190
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:14.120
a different range. But if you
listen to the background singers of the B
191
00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:18.240
fifty twos, it's hypnotic, you
know what I mean. It's old school.
192
00:16:18.559 --> 00:16:21.639
You can almost see the Ronettes in
it. I can tell you it
193
00:16:21.679 --> 00:16:26.440
was hypnotic because I hated the B
fifty two and still it. Look it's
194
00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:30.519
hard for me to hate some music, but oh my gosh, the B
195
00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:33.080
fifty two, and especially with the
worst song than I've ever heard of my
196
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:37.480
entire life, which was it wasn't
during New Wave era, you know,
197
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:42.279
it came I think in nineteen eighty
seven. Maybe it was the Love Shock.
198
00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:48.399
But remember I hated, hated.
You know what, brother, I
199
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:49.720
will have to tell you, I
don't I agree with you. That was
200
00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:53.840
a song that I really didn't care
for. That song kind of reminded me
201
00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:56.759
of like going to the beach and
I'm the chang. I hate going to
202
00:16:56.840 --> 00:17:00.879
the beach. I don't like sand
in my toes, I don't like swimming
203
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:03.960
in water. Where Fish's Duty where
people dropped their trunks in Urinee. I
204
00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:08.079
don't like that kind of scene.
So love Shack always reminded me of going
205
00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:11.920
to the Beach. I hated that
song, like I hate going to the
206
00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:15.200
Beach. Well, I gotta tell
you that from nineteen eighty three. The
207
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:19.640
Urhythmics is another band who burst on
the scene with their Sweet Dreams Are Made
208
00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:22.839
of This album, which, by
the way, I used to get so
209
00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:26.119
confused when I was a kid.
I used to wait, are they saying
210
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:33.400
sweet dreams are made of this?
Or are they saying sweet dreams are made
211
00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:38.359
of these? I just couldn't really
wrap my mind around them. I believe
212
00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:45.000
it's these. You have to give
a lot of credit to the Urhythmics,
213
00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:51.279
you know what I'm saying, the
music ensemble of musicians that they gathered to
214
00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:55.160
make the music they did, and
they were once married, Dave Stewart and
215
00:17:55.240 --> 00:18:02.920
Annie Lennox. Annie Lennox had such
a voice, was kind of the ranges
216
00:18:02.960 --> 00:18:07.440
of greatness to where you can go
into the Elephantzgerald, you can go into
217
00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:12.000
the Edda James, the Billie Holiday. You could take it into like a
218
00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:17.480
heart, uh, you know,
with Anne Wilson, something hard rocky like
219
00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:22.720
that. She had a range that
was way beyond her even making it as
220
00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:26.200
pop new wave. And she could
also act. And she was freaking hot
221
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:30.559
too, and don't even Nix was
so hot. She gave me a weird
222
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:36.119
vibe and I don't know what it
was. She she kind of reminded me
223
00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:37.799
of somebody who would work like at
a funeral home, you know what.
224
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:41.279
She reminded me of a dominatrix.
And I would have let her spank.
225
00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:44.880
That's what it is. And I
because you know, you know what,
226
00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:48.119
that's what it is, the chan
you know what I mean. Bro,
227
00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:49.519
I'm about the rock and roll.
Bro, I'm all about the wear of
228
00:18:49.599 --> 00:18:53.400
the leather, you know. And
I'm a metal kind of cat. And
229
00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:56.279
oh yeah, I would have let
her spank me. But you see,
230
00:18:56.319 --> 00:18:59.880
I wouldn't have let her do the
pulp fiction with a red ball on my
231
00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:03.960
because I get my pit full of
a red ball when we want to throw
232
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:06.480
it around the yards. I get
him fit built, you know, And
233
00:19:06.599 --> 00:19:10.720
so I wouldn't go that route.
But Annie Lennox, that band, great
234
00:19:10.759 --> 00:19:32.960
band man, Dave Stewart, musical
genius. Annie Lennox of Vocalists beyond vocalists.
235
00:19:37.880 --> 00:19:41.599
That's right. Any Lennox with the
rhythmics a song played to death on
236
00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:47.319
every radio station I believe, all
around the world. Yeah, dude,
237
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:52.799
it was global. It's it's global
like back to the eighties is going global.
238
00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:55.799
Now. Now here's a band.
I don't know if you remember this
239
00:19:55.880 --> 00:20:00.160
band. I'm pretty sure most of
our listeners will remember this band. And
240
00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:03.279
you know, the chang is hitting
you from the hip tonight the motels.
241
00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:07.799
Are you aware of that band?
That was a great band. A strong
242
00:20:07.920 --> 00:20:15.640
vocalist, totally strong. She was
also a very voluptuous, gorgeous looking brunette.
243
00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:22.279
And the song that that took it
home for them was in nineteen eighty
244
00:20:22.279 --> 00:20:26.759
two. This was one of their
harder cuts, Mission of Mercy. The
245
00:20:26.920 --> 00:20:32.559
piano in this is freaking phenomenal,
kind of like a billy Joel takes you
246
00:20:32.640 --> 00:20:48.480
back to that kind of burlesque type. That's what this video reminded me of.
247
00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:15.440
Listen, Well, it was definitely
a mix of music, wasn't it
248
00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:18.920
that harder? A little bit harder
rock with the synth in the background giving
249
00:21:18.960 --> 00:21:26.359
it that very just special new wave
vibe, kind of like a rendition something
250
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:32.079
David Bowie would have his hands in
that kind of a clay kind of mold
251
00:21:32.119 --> 00:21:34.880
of some type in music, wouldn't
you say so? Very David bob Oh,
252
00:21:34.960 --> 00:21:41.200
yeah, very David Bowie ish.
It just has that David Bowie ish
253
00:21:41.319 --> 00:21:45.079
feel. What do you got for
me? Next? How are you standing
254
00:21:45.079 --> 00:21:48.279
the bricks up to me? I'm
building a wall here, toscanell Oh,
255
00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:52.839
you better build it harder, because
up next is is A is a band
256
00:21:53.160 --> 00:22:02.039
of course that comes from the land
that produces so many, so, so
257
00:22:02.079 --> 00:22:07.680
many hits, And of course I'm
talking about UK. I'm listening to you.
258
00:22:07.759 --> 00:22:14.359
I'm the queen mother you morons.
Everything great is from here, including
259
00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:23.359
your potter who's dedicated to you.
Chang Oh, I hate that song.
260
00:22:30.759 --> 00:22:56.680
I don't want them to hoology Relax, Relax, as Frankie goes to Hollywood
261
00:22:56.680 --> 00:23:02.319
with relax, Now, tell me
what is the beef that you have with
262
00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:07.000
this song? Well? Where do
I start? If I was in Hollywood
263
00:23:07.039 --> 00:23:11.119
like I normally, where do you
think I would make him leave? Or
264
00:23:11.160 --> 00:23:15.839
I would go somewhere else. I
just I just couldn't do this band.
265
00:23:17.119 --> 00:23:22.920
I was not into the dance sound
oriented type synthesized music, so I thought
266
00:23:23.559 --> 00:23:30.160
them getting catapulted in the new way
there thought that they were something other than
267
00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:36.400
pop. I would put them probably
like Madonna, honestly, something of that
268
00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:41.119
nature too. Even with Wham,
the more material and the more type of
269
00:23:41.240 --> 00:23:44.920
music that you would dance to in
a club. I wouldn't put them in
270
00:23:44.920 --> 00:23:52.279
a new wave so as much as
as other people would, or they may
271
00:23:52.319 --> 00:23:55.680
have on Google. Well you know
what this is. But you know the
272
00:23:55.720 --> 00:24:02.039
fact of the matter is they were
really hardcore new wave synthpop up and you
273
00:24:02.039 --> 00:24:04.319
know, as a matter of fact, there nineteen eighty three debut album Relaxed,
274
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:10.079
which was this It was banned by
the BBC. On the BBC,
275
00:24:10.599 --> 00:24:15.759
Yeah, don't be a hater,
Oh man, don't is that the phone?
276
00:24:15.839 --> 00:24:18.720
Is that dicator trying to call?
I hope that's not dick hator you
277
00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:22.519
No, no, no, it's
not dick hat. They ended up also
278
00:24:22.559 --> 00:24:29.680
winning in nineteen eighty five the brit
Award for Best British Single with their debut
279
00:24:29.720 --> 00:24:34.400
album Welcome to Pleasure Dome. Frankie
Goes to Hollywood. Now that was a
280
00:24:34.480 --> 00:24:38.079
movie also, right, Welcome to
the Pleasure Dome. No, I think
281
00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:45.000
you're thinking of Max. What was
it mad Max? At something like that.
282
00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:51.319
I was that's right, I was
thinking of the Bunny Ranch in Oh
283
00:24:51.720 --> 00:24:55.079
my gosh. Yeah you were sorry
about that? Yeah, okay, my
284
00:24:55.240 --> 00:24:59.880
bad player. What else do you
got for me not to skon? Are
285
00:24:59.880 --> 00:25:02.400
you ready? Are you ready to
cringe? Now? I want you to
286
00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:03.680
do me a favor, Like you're
going to be in a plane crash.
287
00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:07.759
Put your head between your knees and
put your hands over your head. But
288
00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:08.799
by the way, I hate to
burst your bubble. But you know I'm
289
00:25:08.799 --> 00:25:11.720
not going to cringe because I really
really like new wave. All right,
290
00:25:11.759 --> 00:25:15.400
now, I'm gonna have to hit
you with this song. Okay, brother,
291
00:25:15.480 --> 00:25:19.640
this is another strong woman. The
Pretenders with Precious, I mean the
292
00:25:19.720 --> 00:25:26.400
Pretenders their first album. I'd say
there was at least maybe six hits on
293
00:25:26.519 --> 00:25:29.200
that, you know what I mean. But it was a rocking album.
294
00:25:29.240 --> 00:25:32.079
You bought that album, you know
where You're gonna get some ass kicking rock
295
00:25:32.119 --> 00:25:36.279
and roll. She was classified as
new wave, you know what I mean.
296
00:25:36.319 --> 00:25:38.960
But you know that was something I
always thought that was out of a
297
00:25:38.960 --> 00:25:45.960
touch, Just like when Jethro Tull
was voted as best Metal act for the
298
00:25:45.079 --> 00:25:51.759
year over Metallica. Pretenders they were
categorized as new wave, but I classify
299
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:55.640
them as hard rock. But we're
talking new wave. This is what was
300
00:25:55.680 --> 00:26:00.839
on the list, So I'd go
with the Pretenders with a great sexy of
301
00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:25.319
course, everybody's favorite, Chrissy High
and that magnificent background Batman. Hey,
302
00:26:25.319 --> 00:26:30.480
did you know that she came out
in an episode of the nineties hit show
303
00:26:30.559 --> 00:26:33.519
Friends. Yes, I did know
that, bro, and she looked pretty
304
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:36.759
hot. Yeah, because every time
that episode comes on, I always wonder,
305
00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:40.599
I know I've seen her. Well, obviously she's from the Pretenders of
306
00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:42.920
course. Anyway, this is back
to the eighties. When we come back,
307
00:26:44.000 --> 00:26:48.200
there's more talk of new wave and
a lot more That's right, don't
308
00:26:48.200 --> 00:26:52.880
you go anywhere, because we'll go
looking for you. We have the tools
309
00:26:52.960 --> 00:26:56.799
to go looking for you. When
the economy was good and the medal was
310
00:26:56.920 --> 00:27:07.039
heavy. Man, back to the
eighties and now back to the eighties with
311
00:27:07.240 --> 00:27:18.440
Tiscano and Chang. You're listening to
back to the eighties. This is Tiscanno
312
00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:23.400
from Tiscano and Chang. We were
talking about the eighties new wave craze.
313
00:27:23.400 --> 00:27:27.160
So if you just joined us,
thanks for doing that. We are talking
314
00:27:27.240 --> 00:27:33.799
with the Chang now about a subject
that has you know, it didn't really
315
00:27:33.880 --> 00:27:37.680
last too long as far as that
new wave didn't really remain too long with
316
00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:41.839
us. You know, We've got
what we got and that's about it.
317
00:27:41.680 --> 00:27:47.079
Nineteen eighty to nineteen eighty four,
and then of course afterwards there were some
318
00:27:47.200 --> 00:27:52.519
songs by those same bands, but
it just there weren't anything new coming out
319
00:27:52.680 --> 00:27:56.799
because of what happened in the nineties. But the following band is a British
320
00:27:57.519 --> 00:28:03.559
ska and pop band who falls into
the new wave craze as well. And
321
00:28:03.720 --> 00:28:11.640
it's a song by Madness from the
album The Rise and Fall, and the
322
00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:45.920
song is of course our House,
sister saying in this same not gonna be
323
00:28:45.000 --> 00:28:51.920
honest with you, Chang. This
song by Madness Our House falls into my
324
00:28:52.240 --> 00:29:00.920
top five of all time of all
genres. In my top five favorite's that's
325
00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:03.440
pretty cool. Madness was all right
with me, you know what I mean?
326
00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:07.279
My favorite song was one Step Beyond. As we know. I'm sure
327
00:29:07.400 --> 00:29:12.920
you think that a lot of my
radio presents the prowess I take just like
328
00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:18.759
missus Chang thinks every now and then
you go one step beyond. But then
329
00:29:18.799 --> 00:29:22.759
again I have to attribute it because
I did stand up comedy and you have
330
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:26.799
to go one step beyond. Of
course you always do. No. Now,
331
00:29:26.920 --> 00:29:32.960
my next, my next brick on
my wall of new wave kicks that
332
00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:37.160
get their kicks is this. I
have to bring up this band, even
333
00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:44.440
though it was it was a dedication
or it was a request from a guest
334
00:29:45.279 --> 00:29:52.559
that was on an FM station at
one time, and the band is Missing
335
00:29:52.680 --> 00:29:59.759
Persons. The Bosios, I mean
Dude Terry and Dale Bosio with Walking in
336
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:03.559
La. I mean that just you
listen to that song video or not,
337
00:30:03.880 --> 00:30:08.519
you just think about Los Angeles.
There everything about Los Angeles. The fashion,
338
00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:17.880
you know, was a bigger than
life. And actually I think she
339
00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:22.559
came out with the cup braw way
before Madonna, with the blonde hair,
340
00:30:23.119 --> 00:30:27.160
good looking kick. She had great
vocal range, her husband could pound on
341
00:30:27.279 --> 00:30:33.119
the drums like John Bonham. They
had the synthesized look. They were everything
342
00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:37.359
about La and they had the glitter. I think that was a great new
343
00:30:37.440 --> 00:30:40.799
wave band that was, you know, hands down, and I also think
344
00:30:40.839 --> 00:30:47.119
that this is one of the bands
that that really becomes a staple for that
345
00:30:47.359 --> 00:30:51.359
time of new wave and of Los
Angeles. Let's take a listen to Walking
346
00:30:51.519 --> 00:30:53.920
in La by Missing Persons, let's
take it back home to La Testas.
347
00:31:08.839 --> 00:31:15.279
She had a very particular way of
dressing, funky and very apropos for the
348
00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:19.880
new wave genre, of course,
with bleached hair and different colors, and
349
00:31:21.119 --> 00:31:29.240
with those gold cups for her bra
and gold pans sometimes and sometimes she wore
350
00:31:29.279 --> 00:31:33.680
coconuts. It was hot, it
was incredibly hot, you know. I
351
00:31:33.799 --> 00:31:37.279
thought it was captivating. It was
hot, it was fresh. You know,
352
00:31:37.519 --> 00:31:41.200
she stood on a ledge on her
own. She had no fear flash.
353
00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:45.880
Everything that is going to need to
draw attention. And if you've got
354
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:48.359
to get to the top, you
have to draw attention. Sometimes negative attention
355
00:31:48.440 --> 00:31:53.640
gives you positive attention. Sometimes whatever
you're doing is an attention, and that's
356
00:31:53.680 --> 00:31:56.400
what you want, that's what you
crave. That's what's going to put you
357
00:31:57.119 --> 00:32:01.160
out in the forefront above anybody else
that's doing the same dig that you're doing.
358
00:32:01.640 --> 00:32:04.880
Yeah, and I thought, man, they had it all together.
359
00:32:05.359 --> 00:32:07.519
She was pretty hot. She knew
how to move that mic, she knew
360
00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:10.640
how to captivate, she knew how
to dress the band. Knew how to
361
00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:15.759
dress the band. If you take
the band alone away from the poppiness,
362
00:32:15.319 --> 00:32:20.599
I mean, each player in that
band could hold their own Chops. That
363
00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:22.839
was a great band. You know
what I'm saying, my brother, Oh
364
00:32:22.920 --> 00:32:25.400
yeah, I love the band.
And if you love anything new wave,
365
00:32:27.079 --> 00:32:31.359
you're gonna love Missing Persons. Coming
up next, we have another one of
366
00:32:31.440 --> 00:32:35.799
my choices. It's it's you know, these songs, the ones that I
367
00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:38.519
chose, most of them are going
to be the ones that are played to
368
00:32:38.599 --> 00:32:43.440
death on the radio. They're just
play they're hacked away. But you know
369
00:32:43.519 --> 00:32:49.599
what these are. These are what
left footprints in our society worldwide, of
370
00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:55.920
course. And this following song is
a song that is interpreted throughout the history
371
00:32:57.160 --> 00:33:01.000
of eighties music. Cover bands galore
have ever this, It's been in movies.
372
00:33:01.480 --> 00:33:15.319
If you can tell me what it
is with me? Never step just
373
00:33:16.079 --> 00:33:36.640
to forget? How could you ever
get tired of listening to naked eyes with
374
00:33:36.799 --> 00:33:43.400
always something there to remind me?
Very easy step in an elevator and there
375
00:33:43.519 --> 00:33:45.880
on, and you're like, I
want to jump off this elevator. I'm
376
00:33:45.880 --> 00:33:47.680
going to climb through the trapdoor up
on top, just to get away from
377
00:33:47.960 --> 00:33:52.519
You're playing this ridiculous And there you
go, the hater is here? Are
378
00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:57.720
you telling me that you don't like
naked eyes with something there to remind me.
379
00:33:59.359 --> 00:34:02.839
Oh, I'm telling you and I'm
telling our listeners. I am not
380
00:34:02.960 --> 00:34:07.119
a fan of the Naked Eyes.
As a matter of fact, I wish
381
00:34:07.160 --> 00:34:09.320
it was naked voices, so I
wouldn't have what I think of What do
382
00:34:09.400 --> 00:34:22.679
you think of that? I have
this nagging pain in the middle of my
383
00:34:22.760 --> 00:34:25.880
head? Doctor, what is it? Oh? It's Naked Eyes? And
384
00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:30.199
I thought you were gonna love it? No? No, all right,
385
00:34:30.320 --> 00:34:43.480
I couldn't. You know what I
hate more than that? Sod covido?
386
00:34:43.679 --> 00:34:46.880
Yah? Well, I guess you
know. Not every genre is for every
387
00:34:46.960 --> 00:34:51.559
person, you know, this is
like thirty one flavors. No, so
388
00:34:51.800 --> 00:34:54.960
there's it's a big dead you could
choose. Can I have a coconut coin?
389
00:34:55.199 --> 00:34:59.360
A cone? No, I want
chocolate? I didn't say coconut,
390
00:34:59.760 --> 00:35:02.719
poor Naked Eyes. It's from their
album. By the way, that was
391
00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:07.199
from their album Burning Bridges. How
do you like that? Yeah? Yes
392
00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:10.800
it was. And I wish they
would have burned that album and never have
393
00:35:10.880 --> 00:35:15.079
recorded What do you think of that? This next band that I got to
394
00:35:15.119 --> 00:35:22.079
give it up to is Oh the
Bengals. These chicks could play, and
395
00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:28.400
good lord, what I would have
done just to be a roadie and when
396
00:35:28.440 --> 00:35:32.840
they came out with Walk like an
Egyptian. That song had all everybody,
397
00:35:34.519 --> 00:35:37.159
Uh, you know, everybody was
in a craze for that song. People
398
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:40.679
were trying to, you know,
dance like Egyptians. You know, you
399
00:35:40.760 --> 00:35:45.719
started seeing chicks put Egyptian makeup with
a hair, you know, Susannah Hoff
400
00:35:46.199 --> 00:35:52.280
looking ever so gorgeous like a Liz
Taylor. Was that eye makeup? Remember
401
00:35:52.360 --> 00:35:58.119
that the big earrings. Oh,
I would have loved to have played khula
402
00:35:58.159 --> 00:36:01.760
hoop with those ear rings with her
on you know what I'm and with and
403
00:36:01.880 --> 00:36:06.960
with your body, you probably could
have. So, you know what I
404
00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:12.760
gotta I gotta tell you though,
that's a low blow. That's a compliment
405
00:36:13.239 --> 00:36:16.800
that I was lean and mean you
just like you were. I saw that
406
00:36:16.960 --> 00:36:21.360
picture of you at the beach.
Did Erica Strata? Yeah, minus the
407
00:36:21.440 --> 00:36:24.639
muscles, minus the muscles of course. I was thirty years younger than Erica
408
00:36:24.679 --> 00:36:30.840
Strata. Yeah, that's something,
Erica Strata. I want Erica Strata on
409
00:36:30.880 --> 00:36:32.519

00:36:38.440 --> 00:36:43.000
flaking on us. Come on,
Cory, get on the ball now.
412
00:36:43.079 --> 00:36:45.880
Curry's got too many things on his
mind right now. He's got too many
413
00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:49.679
plates spinning at the same time,
he's got a documentary coming up, and
414
00:36:49.760 --> 00:36:53.639
then he's got his album to deal
with. I'm looking I'm looking forward to
415
00:36:53.760 --> 00:36:57.599
see that dude, and I would
love for him to go on go on
416
00:36:57.679 --> 00:37:00.400
the show so we could talk to
him. Here. Check out that doc
417
00:37:00.559 --> 00:37:05.840
The Bengals, Susannah House at the
lead with walk like an Egyptian old on.
418
00:37:06.000 --> 00:37:12.159
Let me get the lotions like that, that sister room, then my
419
00:37:12.400 --> 00:37:22.519
Hardon, no Psycopos Cadillac out.
You know I can hear Susannah House and
420
00:37:22.639 --> 00:37:30.880
the Bengals anytime of the day of
next. Depeche Mode they're English electronic music
421
00:37:30.960 --> 00:37:37.519
band formed in Basilodon in nineteen eighty
The group the group trio with Dave Gone.
422
00:37:37.719 --> 00:37:40.679
Oh my gosh, I gotta tell
you, I gotta tell you and
423
00:37:40.719 --> 00:37:46.320
I'm being dead honest, David Gone
and People are People. Depeche Mode nineteen
424
00:37:46.400 --> 00:37:52.239
eighty four. One of my favorite
bands in the world. Check them out.
425
00:38:15.880 --> 00:38:20.239
Oh you gotta love that you got? That is the epitome, my
426
00:38:20.360 --> 00:38:27.199
friend, the epitome of new wave. I'd rather drop a fifty pound anvil
427
00:38:27.360 --> 00:38:30.639
on my testicles and listen to that
song or that entire album. Do you
428
00:38:30.760 --> 00:38:35.519
understand what? Depeche Mode release their
debut album, Speaking Spell on n eighteen
429
00:38:35.559 --> 00:38:38.559
eighty one, bringing the band into
the British new wave scene. Like I
430
00:38:38.679 --> 00:38:43.760
said, whenever I hear Depeche Mode, it pumps me up, almost like
431
00:38:43.920 --> 00:38:46.880
listening to White Snake with Here We
Go Again. I mean, it just
432
00:38:47.119 --> 00:38:51.639
pumps me up. God. Now, first of all, put your shirt
433
00:38:51.719 --> 00:38:53.800
back on, because I know I
watched you take it off as you were
434
00:38:53.880 --> 00:38:58.079
dancing. I had to, I
had to do of this song. That's
435
00:38:58.199 --> 00:39:01.800
right. I would rather have an
anvil dropped on my testicles then to listen
436
00:39:01.880 --> 00:39:07.119
to this band. This is not
Chantastic, chang terrific or Changley in any
437
00:39:07.159 --> 00:39:12.000
way. But I get Matt props
to anybody that did like them. Is
438
00:39:12.039 --> 00:39:15.719
they did have that new wave sound
all the way through. Just wasn't my
439
00:39:15.840 --> 00:39:20.159
cup of tea. You know,
Chang. Next time we're in the car
440
00:39:20.360 --> 00:39:24.360
together, I'm gonna drive by Sunset
Boulevard or Hollywood Boulevard. You take your
441
00:39:24.400 --> 00:39:29.079
pink, we're gonna put the top
down, and then we're gonna bless this.
442
00:39:34.320 --> 00:39:37.679
Get a convertible so I could throw
my hair into the wind. Well,
443
00:39:37.719 --> 00:39:38.960
that's why I said, we're gonna
put the top down, but we
444
00:39:39.079 --> 00:39:44.400
both have to drop like a right, said Fred. So I take it
445
00:39:44.559 --> 00:39:47.360
you are not a fan of Depeche
Mode. How dare you? You know
446
00:39:47.480 --> 00:39:53.440
what? I had an opportunity to
go see Depeche Mode, and here we
447
00:39:53.559 --> 00:39:58.199
go. I can feel it coming. I had to make a lie up
448
00:39:58.239 --> 00:40:02.719
and said I drank too much pepto
bismo because I couldn't poop, And now
449
00:40:02.840 --> 00:40:07.719
I'm can't stop pooping, so I
can't go with you to the show.
450
00:40:08.880 --> 00:40:12.880
And there, yes, no,
no, no, I've got a song
451
00:40:13.039 --> 00:40:16.519
here. It wasn't one of my
favorites. This is probably number one of
452
00:40:16.679 --> 00:40:27.119
my least favorite song back in nineteen
the eighty Realm. Now this is nineteen
453
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:31.039
eighty four, February of my birthday, which even hits me over the head
454
00:40:31.159 --> 00:40:37.760
twice as bad as me hitting my
head at a five foot door frame from
455
00:40:37.800 --> 00:40:42.360
the floor to the top. This
song is Are you ready for this one?
456
00:40:42.400 --> 00:40:44.880
I know you remember it? Okay, Now take off your shirt,
457
00:40:44.960 --> 00:40:52.599
show me your hairy armpits, because
this is Nanna Hoggin ninety nine loof Balloons
458
00:40:52.159 --> 00:40:58.840
No, this song irritates me.
It reminds me of like a bunk kids
459
00:40:58.960 --> 00:41:02.239
party where there's no clown. They're
just putting balloons up and then this chick
460
00:41:02.320 --> 00:41:07.880
takes up her you know, she's
slipped in her arms, she had she
461
00:41:07.079 --> 00:41:13.159
had more hair under her arms roll
than I did at that time in the
462
00:41:13.320 --> 00:41:17.400
eighties. Yes, and she ruins
every single thing about her. You know,
463
00:41:17.480 --> 00:41:21.639
when I saw this video for the
very first time, I was so
464
00:41:22.360 --> 00:41:27.320
attracted to Nina and when I saw
this come out here you go listen to
465
00:41:27.400 --> 00:41:49.360
this. So I'm listening to this
and they're watching the video and lo and
466
00:41:49.480 --> 00:41:55.559
behold she raises her arms and I
it's like, my world felt. It's
467
00:41:55.599 --> 00:42:01.000
like finding out that Santa Claus doesn't
exist. Yeah, she had Santa Claus
468
00:42:01.480 --> 00:42:15.800
beard hair under her arms. That's
all bad, it was. Yeah,
469
00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:22.039
So that's Nina with ninety nine baloons
and yeah, she also made this song
470
00:42:22.519 --> 00:42:27.199
in English, which is basically called
ninety nine bloons. It's so watered down
471
00:42:27.280 --> 00:42:30.239
when you say it like that.
It's like going to talk about can I
472
00:42:30.280 --> 00:42:34.599
have a takedo a taco? Can
I get a verrita? No, don't
473
00:42:34.679 --> 00:42:37.760
say it like that. Well,
the way she says, that is nine.
474
00:42:38.039 --> 00:42:43.519
That's right, and give her her
respect. The woman had hair under
475
00:42:43.559 --> 00:42:45.519
her arms, no one I respect, but first she can shave. Then
476
00:42:45.559 --> 00:42:50.119
she came up. She can give
my rich respect. Now, Tiscano,
477
00:42:50.199 --> 00:42:53.679
could you imagine making passionate love to
her and then both of you have sweat
478
00:42:53.719 --> 00:42:58.400
beads coming from you know what.
I am a married man and I do
479
00:42:58.639 --> 00:43:02.119
not want to even pick that I'm
talking. I still don't want to picture
480
00:43:02.159 --> 00:43:07.000
that because the harry arms, like
I said, it was like finding out
481
00:43:07.360 --> 00:43:12.599
Santa Claus never existed. It was
It's like finding out Sasquatch was sleeping in
482
00:43:12.679 --> 00:43:17.119
your bed and masturbating. That's so
wrong, that's so wrong. If you
483
00:43:17.239 --> 00:43:21.880
just joined us here at the madness
of Tiscano and changing back to the eighties,
484
00:43:21.920 --> 00:43:27.199
we're talking about the craze that the
new wave generation left for all of
485
00:43:27.320 --> 00:43:31.079
us and the chang so I brought
to you one of the bands that you
486
00:43:31.320 --> 00:43:35.480
hated, which is one of my
favorite bands of all time, which was
487
00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:38.320
Depeche Mode. We just talked about
him. But now are you ready?
488
00:43:38.480 --> 00:43:43.400
Are you ready for this? No? I can't wait to see your face
489
00:43:44.039 --> 00:43:47.639
as soon as I start playing this
song. I'm gonna give you a few
490
00:43:47.760 --> 00:43:53.000
moments just to kind of bask in
the ambience of what this song is bringing
491
00:43:53.079 --> 00:43:57.599
to the table. Here we go, my friend and Joy, because I
492
00:43:57.719 --> 00:44:24.679
know you're gonna love raps on the
ground Fred Targets, Oh that's right.
493
00:44:24.719 --> 00:44:30.280
You can hear the chain tucking in
the background because he just loves Robert Smith
494
00:44:30.440 --> 00:44:34.760
is remind me of Saw and and
And what he's doing is uh, he's
495
00:44:34.840 --> 00:44:38.320
doing a promo for Target on it. You know. This song is called
496
00:44:38.840 --> 00:44:43.960
the Walk and it's by the queue
or there at least as a stand alone.
497
00:44:45.039 --> 00:44:47.880
Was released as a stand alone single
in July of nineteen eighty three,
498
00:44:49.239 --> 00:44:53.079
and it later appeared on the compilation
album Japanese Whispers. This was from the
499
00:44:53.239 --> 00:44:59.880
B side of the Dream the Upstairs
Room Lament. I wish everybody would have
500
00:45:00.039 --> 00:45:02.880
whispered this crap band. This guy
scares the hell out of me. I
501
00:45:02.960 --> 00:45:08.280
don't like clowns for some reason.
Bringing Brothers and Barnum and Bailey's Circus freaked
502
00:45:08.320 --> 00:45:13.320
me out. One time when my
parents thought it would be cool to get
503
00:45:13.400 --> 00:45:17.559
good seats by the ringside because I
wanted to see gunther Gable Williams. The
504
00:45:17.719 --> 00:45:22.360
blonde Stallion would semi long haired,
tame wild beasts, clowns and me,
505
00:45:22.679 --> 00:45:27.280
no do it, my wife.
Now, let me tell you this band
506
00:45:27.559 --> 00:45:30.639
was inducted into the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame finally after so many years,
507
00:45:30.880 --> 00:45:35.559
in twenty nineteen. And also,
let me give you an interesting fact.
508
00:45:36.239 --> 00:45:40.039
My very first concert ever, I
was fourteen years old at the Los
509
00:45:40.119 --> 00:45:45.599
Angeles Forum. I went to go
see with my buddy The Cure. Really
510
00:45:46.039 --> 00:45:52.039
incredible. They performed incredibly, They
had a great show. Now I'm not
511
00:45:52.119 --> 00:45:55.559
a fan of every one of their
songs, but a man and also Robert
512
00:45:55.599 --> 00:46:00.519
Smith, I granted to you,
although his aaron's has changed quite a bit
513
00:46:00.639 --> 00:46:07.679
and he is quite scary today,
but his voice remains exactly the same.
514
00:46:07.679 --> 00:46:14.360
You could say that, or you
could also say saw fourteen starring Robert Smith,
515
00:46:14.960 --> 00:46:19.760
as he represents a target. I'm
gonna have to tell you, Tisconnell,
516
00:46:22.599 --> 00:46:25.119
you love The Cure, don't you
Let me ask you something. If
517
00:46:25.159 --> 00:46:29.920
you had a chance to go see
The Cure or Depeche Mode, which group
518
00:46:29.960 --> 00:46:34.760
would you choose. I'd rather go
get venereal disease off of a five dollar
519
00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:37.960
prostitute and not go to either show
because I'd be in the er getting b
520
00:46:38.119 --> 00:46:43.679
twelve shots in both cheeks. That's
what I would rather do. Such a
521
00:46:43.760 --> 00:46:47.760
hater, tisconnoll. You, you, my friend, are making me the
522
00:46:47.920 --> 00:46:55.679
hater that I don't want to be. Please the cure. What are they
523
00:46:55.760 --> 00:47:00.000
the cure for? I'm not sick, certainly they're not. They make me
524
00:47:00.239 --> 00:47:05.440
sick. How are they my cure? Explain that to me? Tusky,
525
00:47:05.559 --> 00:47:07.559
my friend, I'm going to give
you one more because you keep giving me.
526
00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:14.039
I'm going to have to get my
cold and camping uh toilet out and
527
00:47:14.239 --> 00:47:17.480
sit there as you keep hitting me
with songs that you're hitting me with.
528
00:47:21.440 --> 00:47:24.199
Okay, Oh, are you ready
for this one? I have to It's
529
00:47:24.199 --> 00:47:30.760
a must. Okay, I'm gonna
go with the go gos ready, you
530
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:35.320
know what I mean, the go
goes, my brother, you have to
531
00:47:35.440 --> 00:47:40.559
go back to kay And we got
the beat that was one of the most
532
00:47:40.679 --> 00:47:49.280
populoust kind of girl enhancing. We
got the spirit we can do it type
533
00:47:49.800 --> 00:47:53.320
songs had the cheerleader kind of a
sound which kind of mean to me,
534
00:47:53.440 --> 00:47:58.559
brought out Tony Basil, you know
what I mean, had that kind of
535
00:47:58.599 --> 00:48:04.159
a feel. But and if you
give it up to the Bengals musicianship wise,
536
00:48:04.280 --> 00:48:07.800
they were all pretty talented, you
know, all of them could sing.
537
00:48:07.760 --> 00:48:14.440
Belinda Carlisle could sing. She was
almost kind of like that cute southern
538
00:48:14.559 --> 00:48:17.400
California beach chick. All of them
kind of were. Me and Missus Chang
539
00:48:17.480 --> 00:48:22.760
went and saw a band called the
Blue Bonnets, and I believe the guitar
540
00:48:22.880 --> 00:48:27.960
player and the bass player of the
Go Gos in later years played in that
541
00:48:28.079 --> 00:48:31.800
band, and it was an all
girl ensemble of blues rock and they they
542
00:48:32.000 --> 00:48:38.159
wailed at home. It was not
long after ray Vaughn's fifth year anniversary of
543
00:48:38.280 --> 00:48:45.960
debt that we went to go see
this show. We also saw John Mayer
544
00:48:45.119 --> 00:48:52.519
play with Stevie ray Vaughn's band Double
Trouble. A great show. But the
545
00:48:52.800 --> 00:48:55.760
but the Go Gos they could hold
their own. I mean everything they touched
546
00:48:55.800 --> 00:48:59.800
back into early eighties was gold.
You know. The last year, during
547
00:48:59.800 --> 00:49:02.360
the lockdown, I believe around the
month of September or so, the Go
548
00:49:02.559 --> 00:49:08.039
Goes performed this particular song we got
to beat um, you know, doing
549
00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:10.599
it from zoom. Who would have
ever thought we would get to see the
550
00:49:10.679 --> 00:49:14.760
Go Goes and let me bring it
in. You're ready for this? Yeah,
551
00:49:15.400 --> 00:49:19.760
put your ears to the MIC's everybody
and grab your shoes, because it's
552
00:49:19.840 --> 00:49:22.360
time to rock and roll. It's
time to get up and go. Go
553
00:49:22.039 --> 00:49:25.400
right here with we got to beat, right here with this gotta what give
554
00:49:25.440 --> 00:50:07.559
back to the eighties. We got
we never stopped, didn't hurt, didn't
555
00:50:07.599 --> 00:50:14.360
hurt, didn't hurt, non stop, unforgettable memories from the eighties. Stop
556
00:50:14.480 --> 00:50:23.400
back to the eighties. Welcome back
to back to the eighties, siskano and
557
00:50:23.519 --> 00:50:28.800
Chang Chang. Here you just heard
the beautiful boat into Carlisle with the go
558
00:50:29.000 --> 00:50:32.039
gos we got to beat, taking
you back to nineteen eighty one, and
559
00:50:32.280 --> 00:50:37.360
we are talking about new wave tonight. Now, Tiscano I would have loved
560
00:50:37.400 --> 00:50:43.559
to play Twister was a go goes
back then. How about you? Speaking
561
00:50:43.559 --> 00:50:46.480
of playing twister? Here is a
band. I guess you could say this
562
00:50:46.679 --> 00:50:52.039
is probably their their biggest hit,
only hit, although they had another song
563
00:50:52.119 --> 00:50:59.480
that the radio stations played, but
this was probably their only huge hit.
564
00:50:59.599 --> 00:51:01.960
And then and after that, you
know, I think they play at birthday
565
00:51:02.039 --> 00:51:07.519
parties and such nice wedding singer type
crap. This is safety dance with men
566
00:51:07.599 --> 00:51:25.599
without hats. H I gotta admit, Chang although I didn't like any other
567
00:51:25.679 --> 00:51:30.519
song but this one from Men Without
Hats. Whenever this song would come on,
568
00:51:30.679 --> 00:51:34.119
I would have to pump up the
volume because it was just something about
569
00:51:34.199 --> 00:51:37.119
the song that was so different and
so happy about it, and yet it's
570
00:51:37.280 --> 00:51:43.159
just very melodic. I didn't know
what it was, but it became so
571
00:51:43.400 --> 00:51:47.239
popular. This is a song that
is even a hit today. You know
572
00:51:47.360 --> 00:51:50.679
what, dude, he had a
really good voice. It was a pretty
573
00:51:50.719 --> 00:51:54.360
cool melodic song. Uh, the
Midget would freak me out every now and
574
00:51:54.400 --> 00:52:00.239
then. Yeah, you know what, the midget freak of You know.
575
00:52:00.800 --> 00:52:06.480
The The video in itself was kind
of a kind of strange, kind of
576
00:52:06.639 --> 00:52:09.039
very movie ish. It kind of
took you back to the Renaissance. It
577
00:52:09.159 --> 00:52:15.199
was like going to the Renaissance fair
on acid, where you were on intrigue
578
00:52:15.719 --> 00:52:20.320
and horrified at some of the acts
you may stumble across. It was some
579
00:52:20.719 --> 00:52:25.880
creepy carnival in the medieval times.
Yeah, that's what was crazy. It
580
00:52:25.920 --> 00:52:30.840
would have made a hell of a
video game, don't you think so?
581
00:52:30.239 --> 00:52:34.599
Yeah? Stands stands stand dude,
do do do do do do do?
582
00:52:35.199 --> 00:52:38.159
And you could be advancing and scoring
points. Maybe if you hit the midget
583
00:52:38.199 --> 00:52:40.599
over the head with a helmet,
you get a pot of gold or something
584
00:52:40.719 --> 00:52:44.840
like that. Maybe if you could
cut his hair. He had hair like
585
00:52:45.000 --> 00:52:47.360
Michael Hutchins of in excess, I'll
give the guy that much. He did
586
00:52:47.480 --> 00:52:51.960
kind of look like him. Yeah, he did resemble Michael Hutchins. He
587
00:52:52.079 --> 00:52:53.599
had that good look going for him, and he had a really good voice.
588
00:52:54.079 --> 00:52:58.760
It's a shame that they didn't go
any farther than I think that album
589
00:52:58.840 --> 00:53:00.800
in that song, correct, right, I mean they did. Like I
590
00:53:00.840 --> 00:53:06.480
said, they had another song that
radio stations would play, but it sounded
591
00:53:06.599 --> 00:53:12.519
so bubblegummish, and so I want
to say infantile just something that you would
592
00:53:12.559 --> 00:53:16.960
find at a at a child's circus, so not the real circus, so
593
00:53:17.079 --> 00:53:22.679
not the big boy circus, but
the children's section. And then you'd play
594
00:53:22.760 --> 00:53:25.320
that song for like birthday parties in
that little children's section, almost like a
595
00:53:25.480 --> 00:53:30.280
child playing the game Simon where there's
only four buttons four keys. Did he
596
00:53:30.719 --> 00:53:34.960
did? He? You know?
He also remembered Billy Squire, I mean
597
00:53:35.079 --> 00:53:42.320
he resembled Billy's Squire was a great
musician though. Billy Squire, Yeah,
598
00:53:42.840 --> 00:53:45.920
Billy Squire was a great musician,
a great writer, but when he put
599
00:53:46.079 --> 00:53:52.559
on a net type fabric shirt like
a football jersey and rolled around on the
600
00:53:52.639 --> 00:53:57.159
floor with tight pedal pusher white pants, I thought, you know what,
601
00:53:57.320 --> 00:54:00.960
Billy, you little, you lost
a little, You lost me for a
602
00:54:01.079 --> 00:54:06.440
bit. Very true. And here's
a song by the British band the Thompson
603
00:54:06.519 --> 00:54:12.239
Twins that was actually written after I
believe an argument between the lead singer,
604
00:54:12.760 --> 00:54:19.559
who was Tom Bailey, and his
significant other Alana, and it was written
605
00:54:19.599 --> 00:54:23.360
as a result of an argument that
was resolved between them both. And that
606
00:54:23.599 --> 00:54:27.920
was, of course none other than
the song hold Me Now by the Thompson
607
00:54:28.000 --> 00:54:52.599
Twins Fights and Lightenses We Cry,
released November eleven, nineteen eighty three,
608
00:54:53.039 --> 00:54:59.599
from the album Into the Gap The
Thompson Twins would Hold Me Now became and
609
00:54:59.760 --> 00:55:06.280
that it'll hit and peeking at number
three on the Billboard Hot one hundred in
610
00:55:06.519 --> 00:55:12.760
May, and it stood on that
chart for twenty one weeks. Yeah,
611
00:55:12.880 --> 00:55:21.199
I remember that. I also remember
what happened to their eyebrows. And they
612
00:55:21.280 --> 00:55:24.239
still sing and they're still great man, the Thompson Twins. Well, I
613
00:55:24.360 --> 00:55:28.559
will tell you this about the Thompson
Twins. It's a good thing. There's
614
00:55:28.599 --> 00:55:32.280
twins to keep each other company because
I wouldn't go sit with them. Oh
615
00:55:32.480 --> 00:55:38.719
my gosh, and there it is
again. This has been back to the
616
00:55:38.840 --> 00:55:43.920
eighties. I'm Tiscano from Tiscano and
Chang. I want to thank you guys
617
00:55:43.960 --> 00:55:49.400
for having joined us here on another
Friday. As we continued the talk of
618
00:55:49.599 --> 00:55:54.199
new wave, as I got Chang
even more changry with my favorite bands.
619
00:55:54.239 --> 00:55:58.000
And I bet there were bands you
didn't know there were some of my favorite
620
00:55:58.039 --> 00:55:59.639
bands in the world, did you, Chang. You know what? I
621
00:55:59.719 --> 00:56:04.199
had no idea because every time I
see what I think of Dean Martin and
622
00:56:04.320 --> 00:56:07.159
Frank Sinatra. Nah. Well,
that's what's so great about back to the
623
00:56:07.280 --> 00:56:12.480
eighties. Surprises all around. But
you know what, like I said before,
624
00:56:12.639 --> 00:56:17.039
thirty one flavors, there's thirty one
flavors of music going around and on
625
00:56:17.159 --> 00:56:21.519
behalf of Tuscano. I want to
wish you the safest and happiest of weeks.
626
00:56:22.360 --> 00:56:23.719
Take care of yourself, take care
of your neighbors, take care of
627
00:56:23.800 --> 00:56:30.920
your family because you only got one. Take care and God bless Chang here
628
00:56:30.000 --> 00:56:36.320
everybody on the hang for the weekend
before I release you to another chang tastic
629
00:56:36.400 --> 00:56:40.960
weekend. Remember we are all we
have, get each other's back and do
630
00:56:42.119 --> 00:56:46.320
something bigger than yourself. Remember to
always stay lifted and gifted. No matter
631
00:56:46.400 --> 00:56:50.760
who you are or what you have, it could be worse. Somebody could
632
00:56:50.800 --> 00:56:54.079
have it worse than you have.
And remember pay attention to what's going out
633
00:56:54.119 --> 00:56:58.679
there. Stay healthy, do your
part to take care of your fellow neighbor,

00:56:58.800 --> 00:57:04.400
your family member, and always be
a damn good human. I want
635
00:57:04.400 --> 00:57:12.079
to wish you all an adios,
anariba astamanyana sayanara, and to all my
636
00:57:12.320 --> 00:57:15.320
homies in the hood or so.
That's why
