Down to her Socks Here's a song about a good 'ole girl with a big 'ole heart that got broke 'cause she was in love with some son of a bitch who didn't love her back enough ... Slowly she sank to her knees on the floor Cursin' the freedom she'd won From the torture she vowed not to take anymore And the victim she'd almost become Chorus: For a lady who'd learned all there is about leaving She sure took a long time to go But he loved her right down to her socks and no further And her feet were the last ones to know.

It had to be this song and it had to be this movie... Thank you, Willem, for encouraging me and for the song and all the vinyls :-) When I uploaded the video for the first time it was the day (May 9, 2009) when Stephen was crossing another border for no return, and I didn't know about it then. He also had some tiny scenes in the movie, even with the dancing scene here, but I didn't catch him for the vid... We miss you, Stephen. RIP www.youtube.com www.vimeo.com You won't really notice him in the vid; he is just sitting down to the fiddle player's right playing the guitar... If I had known... I would have put in the 2 seconds with him and the guitar and a dusty face that were near the end of the dance scene in the movie. The song is from the album "Music from Songwriter" (1984) The album was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song Score, losing out to Prince's "Purple Rain" I was deeply impressed by the movie "Heaven's Gate" (1980). Bought the DVD and watched it despite of the many bad reviews that it had received from American critics... To me it's hard stuff, but kind of a masterpiece, and the subject is interesting, I had never heard of that war before. en.wikipedia.org I haven't read really unfair reviews in German about it, although the selfish cowards among the immigrants again speak German (in the German dubbed movie they speak Russian ;-)). The real Ella Watson and Jim Averell both were lynched in the Johnson County War. It's nice to have it on DVD ...

- blocked in Germany for Sony music content... Sorry... Fair use - no copyright violation intended This funny, cheeky song is from Kris's great album "Who's to bless and who's to blame" (1975) I've read that Kris was inspired for this song by the attempts of some people to get him and Rita listen to their songs via the security camera that was installed outside their Malibu home ... But I was also told that he once introduced this song to the audience by telling them that Roger McGuinn of The Byrds had this closed circuit TV installed on his property, and that this was what had inspired him to write this song ... Maybe Kris even didn't have a security system at his home back then ... Or maybe there is a bit of them two stories that made up the true inspiration ... It makes me smile whenever I listen to it ... Bet they were having a lot of fun and whatever else while recording it ... Just listen to the choir and the instruments and noises ... I always had some silly performances of casting shows in my mind (I hate them and actually don't watch them) when I listen to the song ... Them all performing in a driveway instead on the stages ;-)) But I think it's more enjoyable with scenes from Kris's movies ;-)) Warren Oates also sings in the chorus... Most of the scenes are from Songwriter (1984) and Sodbusters (1994) - though not many scenes with Kris in the latter one - A star is born (1976) and Semi-tough (1977); a few are from Blume in love (1973); and tiny scenes are from ...

1984 is a song that cleverly fuses George Orwell's novel "1984" with the times of today also adding to the punchline of Prince's 1999. Probably one of the most clever tunes I've heard in years.

John Lennon - Nobody Told Me. Top Of The Pops 1984

OFFICIAL VIDEO recorded from Top Of the Pops 1984. John Winston Ono Lennon, MBE (9 October 1940 -- 8 December 1980) was an English musician and singer-songwriter who rose to worldwide fame as one of the founding members of The Beatles, one of the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed acts in the history of popular music. Along with fellow Beatle Paul McCartney, he formed one of the most successful songwriting partnerships of the 20th century. Born and raised in Liverpool, Lennon became involved as a teenager in the skiffle craze; his first band, The Quarrymen, evolved into The Beatles in 1960. As the group disintegrated towards the end of the decade, Lennon embarked on a solo career that produced the critically acclaimed albums John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band and Imagine, and iconic songs such as "Give Peace a Chance" and "Imagine". Lennon disengaged himself from the music business in 1975 to devote time to his family, but re-emerged in 1980 with a new album, Double Fantasy. He was murdered three weeks after its release. Lennon revealed a rebellious nature and acerbic wit in his music, his writing, his drawings, on film, and in interviews, and he became controversial through his political activism. He moved to New York City in 1971, where his criticism of the Vietnam War resulted in a lengthy attempt by Richard Nixon's administration to deport him, while his songs were adopted as anthems by the anti-war movement. As of 2010, Lennon's solo album sales in the ...

Tim was dying at the time from diabetes and it had taken a terrible toll on him. But he never lost his good humor."...... here's one of my favorites from the album..... "Shangri-la", enjoy!

Good quality video recorded live in the studio from Top Of The Pops 1984. Matthew Wilder (born Matthew Weiner, January 24, 1953, Manhattan, New York, New York) is an American musician, composer and record producer, best known for his 1983 Top 5 hit, "Break My Stride". Wilder was one-half of the Greenwich Village folk group Matthew & Peter in the 1970s. In 1978 he moved to Los Angeles, California, and sang for television commercials, and as a backing vocalist for Rickie Lee Jones and Bette Midler. Wilder's debut album, I Don't Speak the Language (1983), reached No.49 on the Billboard 200 chart, fueled by "Break My Stride", which reached No.5 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Wilder had some continued success with the single "The Kid's American", which reached No.33 in 1984, but the single failed to match the success of "Break My Stride". Wilder's second album, Bouncin' Off the Walls (1984), failed to gain much momentum — even with an innovative music video for the single "Bouncin' Off the Walls", with only the title track making the charts (No.52), and was subsequently deemed a commercial failure. Despite the collapse of his solo career, Wilder continued his career in the music industry as a songwriter and as a record producer for such acts as No Doubt (the hit album Tragic Kingdom), 702, Christina Aguilera, Kelly Clarkson, Miley Cyrus on her Hannah Montana song "GNO (Girls Night Out)", The Belle Brigade, King Charles, Joanna Pacitti and many others.

Great video great song recorded live in the studio from Top Of The Pops 1984. Nik Kershaw (born Nicholas David Kershaw; 1 March 1958) is an English singer-songwriter. The one time jazz-funk guitarist was a mid-1980s teen idol. His 50 weeks on the UK Singles Chart in 1984 beat all other soloists. Kershaw appeared at Live Aid, and penned hits for Let Loose, The Hollies and a No.1 for Chesney Hawkes, "The One and Only". Although born in Bristol, Kershaw grew up in Ipswich, Suffolk, and after leaving Northgate High School in 1976 worked as a shop assistant and in the Department of Employment for several years, during which time he played guitar and sang in a number of underground Ipswich bands. However, when the last of these, Fusion, split up in 1982, he embarked on a full time career as a songwriter and performer.[1] In 1983, he signed a recording contract with MCA Records, a deal which spawned his debut single, "I Won't Let the Sun Go Down on Me".[1] At the beginning of 1984, Kershaw released his breakthrough song "Wouldn't It Be Good",[1] which reached Number 4 in the UK Singles Chart, and was a big success in Europe, particularly in Germany, Italy, Switzerland, and in Scandinavia and Australia. The music video, featuring Kershaw as a chroma key-suited alien, received heavy rotation by MTV, helping the song reach #46 in the United States. He enjoyed three more Top 20 hits from his debut album Human Racing, including the title track and a successful re-issue of "I Won't ...

Nice quality video recorded in live in the studio from Top Of The Pops 1984. Depeche Mode (pronounced /dɨˈpɛʃ/ də-pesh) are an English electronic music band formed in 1980 in Basildon, Essex.

Vince Clarke left the band after the release of their 1981 debut album, Speak & Spell, and was replaced by Alan Wilder (keyboards, drums) with Gore taking over songwriting. Wilder left the band in 1995 and since then Gahan, Gore, and Fletcher have continued as a trio.
