As a child listening to the oldies station, I really thought Beverly Bivens was a guy.

Say Hello Wave Goodbye (12" Version / Remastered 2008) YouTube video by Soft Cell - Topic

If you ignore the questionable lyrics about short skirts causing women miserable lives, this song is gorgeous, mean, and kind of powerful. #softcell #synthpop #sayhellowavegoodbye #clarinetsolo #80s

DJ Shadow - Nobody Speak feat. Run The Jewels (Official Video) YouTube video by Mass Appeal

Some videos capture the zeitgeist in ways that feel visceral. This is one. “Nobody Speak, nobody get choked” #RTJ #RunTheJewels #NobodySpeak #DJShadow #AmericanPolitics #zeitgeist

Simon Le Bon’s banana suit! Word is Antony Price had a canary when they rolled the sleeves of his coats up.
White jazz shoes for the win. Perfection comes in the form of Nick Rhodes. Blue silver indeed.

Early Duran Duran in…outfits. Like, the best I can describe is what I imagine what glam women lawyers would wear in 1984. But I mean that as a compliment. Every since my famous “New Wave Summer” a couple of years back, I realize that we must return, aesthetically, to this place. Even if it’s only to conquer it.

This is how a well constructed argument should feel. No, I can’t explain it any further.

A gift from my dad. 😍 Pleasant Street, Phantasmagoria in Two… such a good album. #TimBuckley #goodbyeandhello #elektra #folkmusic

When you realize you went to Lollapalooza 2003 and didn’t remember the name of the festival.
#TheMooneySuzuki and #Rooney were why I was there.

"...in this particular democracy and probably every other one in the world there is somebody in power who thinks he is more right then all the people who put him there.
All the people who for once in their lives took an interest..."

I've only been to Germany once, but I do miss the chocolate, the baths, the apfelschorle, the Doner kebab.... Not the same, of course, but I'm sorry and hugs.

Judy Collins - Albatross YouTube video by Christian Davies

The embroidery of your life holds you in and keeps you out but you survive.
Imprisoned in your bones, behind the isinglass windows of your eyes

Trying not to be a mess at work but failing miserably. If I haven’t spilled someone on the floor or myself by 10, it’s a good day.

#Arcadia Single “Goodbye Is Forever” Remix “Missing” 1985 - #NickRhodes, #SimonLeBon, #RogerTaylorDuranDuran

This entire album is fire, but the remix single for Goodbye is perfection. Is it Goth pop? Shoe Gazy?

What a beautiful face. Source unknown. 😏

Tel Aviv (AIR Studio Version) YouTube video by Duran Duran - Topic

I sometimes wonder what Duran Duran would have been had they maintained this sound? Would they have the approval of Paul Morley? Would they have been a band boys loved as much as girls? And Andy Taylor is incredible in this.
