Russell and Ron being ardent anglophiles will hopefully make the US sit up and take notice Going to see them LIVE Axe Blue Peter. Axe Eastenders. Axe Top Gear. Bring back the Closedown. Play this track in my honour. When I'm with you was a massive no1 in France they have had 10 big hit songs in the UK including a Number 2 song check it out yourself if you want facts.
Why would you call Sparks one hit wonders? I'm guessing you're not very old but all the more reason to be savvy with the Internet and Wikipedia Most of the best music of any decade is rarely a list of top ten records Thats actually what the song is about, most sparks songs are sexual innuendo.
Can the BBC be privatized? If so, I'd like to see what the next owner does with it. If I were Britain since britain is the one who owns it right? I bet this is the song Rafa Benitez ears when he is making Real Madrid's tactics. Oh dear me Victor, you need to know what your talking about before you post.
That's rule no 1. How come so many people with no sense of irony and humor even bother to look through comments to a Sparks video?? I'm glad that Ron Mael did away with that ridiculous Charlie Chaplin mustache. Excellent song , actually better then excellent and the video brilliant! Great song. I discovered them like two years ago from an ex cop in a sobriety house downtown Reykjavik and i fell in "musiclove" with these there then Sparks, or was it these two genius brothers knew nothing of them and thought it was a lady though deep one as such singing but it was a crazy dude wqith exellent humour and his awesome bro..
Thanks i take it back,. In all the possible ways to answer this.. I am not atm able to. I respectfully admitted that I could only roll one way and I diffused the situation by annihilating any trace of horny from the person harassing me by starting being very universal gumbo like so often.. Word describing one getting equalized by ones effort of uneffort and relaxation and getting to the positive inside in a way..
I am a patient man I believe but it was tested that night rather hard.. James McLaren.. Dude Cool name" Still singking into the depths of theyre genius Singking best applied to sitiation of eppreciation and describing the in depth enjoyment and understanding and shit one gets from diving into genius : accidentally invented by me so anyone can use this phrase any time cause I own it now..
The bros done good at The Union Chapel! You know what they say, there is no Sparks without Fire! Me too! I think they are better now that they are producing their own material but still highly underrated. Mama Mia! Ronald must have had an extra spicy Mr. Brain's moment just before Real men like women with Brains. This is a totally brilliant song and especially now with the the BBC facing a massive crisis should be re-released Cannot get this tune outa my head cause is qualiteeee!!!!
Pop songs? But, You really have 2 no about music 2 understand. But, Sparks? Gotta be 'No1 song in Heaven'. EuphoricDan and they don't know how to use the Internet in Pittsburgh is that what you are telling me? In the mid of the 70's Russel sung he bought the Mississippi River of course that don't include the towns or the ppl 'round the Mississippi'!
Wot a rich guy! Also planning on buying The Amazon, The Mississippi needed a friend! It seems Ship the river in a ship or river the ship in What was I thinking, what was I thinking What was I thinking, what could I have been thinking It's going one time, it's going two times Sold to the gent who wears the stunned expression.
Johnny fae Denny. She wants them to be indelible. So far, no-one's actually inked one of her songs onto their wrist "obviously I'm doing something wrong," she laughs but it won't be long.
Humberstone's sparse arrangements and effortless vocals focus your attention on those lyrics - a mixture of acutely-observed detail and conversational asides. Born in Grantham, Lincolnshire, she was encouraged to be creative by her parents - both doctors - who banned TV in the house so she would make up songs from poetry books. While she was still at school, she uploaded songs to her local BBC Introducing show, and made her radio debut a week later.
That led to an appearance at Glastonbury, where she was spotted by Lewis Capaldi - who invited her on tour at the start of Although Covid ruined her plans for the rest of the year, she's amassed more than 65 million streams for her debut EP, and has just come second on the BBC's Sound Of - which aims to predict the most exciting new music for the coming year.
She talked to BBC News about her early "crap" songs, finding her sound and living in a haunted house. The top five so far:. Congratulations on making the BBC Sound of list. After a year of being stuck at home, does any of this feel real? Not really, no. So far, my whole career feels like it has been over social media.
I've never done a headline show or anything like that, so I'm really looking forward to being able to play live again in a few months. Just before lockdown, you supported Lewis Capaldi at Wembley. What was that like? I didn't expect to be doing Wembley. I was booked for the Europe leg of the tour - and I was terrified because I'd gone from playing to people to 12, in the space of a month or two.
Wembley happened when the American support act couldn't come over because of Covid. I was like, " Fine. If you're forcing me, I'll do it! And I want bottles of champagne and stuff like that! But it was so cool: Doing a tour like that made me realise just how badly I wanted that for myself. And then, of course, Covid struck How did you spend the rest of ? It was really hard at first. There's nothing inspiring about being stuck inside.
And I put a lot of pressure on myself, because everyone else was like, "Oh brilliant, loads of time to write, we're going to come out with so much stuff at the end of lockdown". But after a few weeks I was like, "Okay, I've just got to chill and use the time to my advantage". And I've actually had loads of fun writing on my own and not having too many people tell me what to do! You moved back in with your parents and sisters. How did that go - because when I was 20, going home was wonderful for about two weeks and then I'd be like, "would you all just leave me alone.
Oh my gosh, definitely. At the start it was like that. I've got a big family, with lots of strong opinions - there's four girls and we're all really close in age and there's lots of stubbornness. But actually, because the world was in a state of crisis, it ended up being a really special family time - having my mum's home-cooked meals and sleeping in my own bed. It's pretty nice set-up! So, for people who only know of Grantham as the birthplace of Margaret Thatcher - what was it like growing up there?
It's a really, really rural part of England. Quite old fashioned and feudal. But I had a really lovely childhood because we're in this really old, freezing cold, falling down house about 20 minutes out of town; and my parents always encouraged us to be creative.
My dad's obsessed with poetry, and he used to put little poetry books in front of me - like Leonard Cohen or TS Eliot.
I didn't understand anything they were talking about, but I used to make up little songs to them. Then I started off writing kind of crap songs [of my own], and parents were like, "Oh, this is great, she's doing something creative! What were those early crap songs like? They were, like, seven-year-old me writing about boys I fancied at school.
I'm always finding the notebooks around the house and they're so cringey. It's hilarious. What were your hopes when you submitted your songs? I guess I hoped that this would happen - but I never really thought it would!
I went to an all-girls school and it was very focused on languages and science. People didn't think music was a real job - and fair enough, it's rural Lincolnshire, you know? But one of my friends' dads heard my music and he was like, "You should send this to BBC Introducing". I'd never heard of it before - but I uploaded some songs in summer and that same week, [BBC Introducing presenter] Dean Jackson in Nottingham was like, "Come in for a session!
