MJ Tribute & Jill Munroe

We all know how much he loved kids and well, kids loved him too!

A million years ago, I too was one of those kids, but preferred the good sweet lovin' of Farrah Fawcett-Majors, growl.
( Rest In Peace Jill Munroe )

Closest thing I can come up with, as a tribute to a guy that hated his reflection:

Dark Wave - Mixtape 3 - The Softcore



Does your mother know you are listening? Does she? Do you think life has meaning?

Some rare tunes to the usual pop darkness lies between your ears on this mix. I tried to avoid the cliche like the first tune from Maurice & the Cliches, doing Soft Core or or or or... You don't want no bloody literature/ you just like the pictures...

Not dark enough for you? You will be swimming in it by the end of this charmer.

Straight out of the Gargoyle Lounge - Fad Gadget's Collapsing New People. Stay awake all night but never see the stars and sleep all day. That is how you get pasty, goth kid.

Take two from the Gargoyle Lounge - Ministry's Everday is Halloween. How could I not put this in? Why can't I live a life for me? Why should I take the abuse that's served? Word!

A happy tune from Love and Rockets called Mirror People. I wish I could be nothing at all...

Then, perhaps the scariest song on the tape. Surprise, Uh Huh!

Uber Super Duber favorite tune from the Stranglers- The Man They Love to Hate. His father was a fighter and he practised on his son. His mother was just some furniture who'd lost the will to run. Heavy duty dose of reality. Now we know why you are into the dark wave.

Won't you dance with me to the Lords of the New Church? Come on stranger there is just one last dance. I noticed Stiv is whispering under the lyrics...check it! Maybe it's in my head...creepy!

Gargoyle Lounge regular number three here, Chameleons doing In Shreds. I need you tonight! That opening riff gets me every time. The noise in my head! You count your blessings while they're there, Amen brother chameleon! It seems to me, you've become part of the machinery! Machinery! Machinery!

No, it's not Interpol. It's their dirty old vater Josef K. It's Kinda Funny how much they sound like Interpol or Interpol sounds like... Enjoy!

Dig this next tune from the Jesus and Mary Chain, The Hardest Walk. I remember Jed the Fish from Kroq said their name the best. I can hear it in my head but I can't type it for you. Think.
Is it me? Famous exiting question from a to b to see!

Okay, a pop tune. Sorry, I can't quit you Reptile from the Church. Don't worry, it will slither away, quick enough like a real reptile! And this next tune you may remember from the best Emilio Estevez movie ever made! No it's not Rated X, the other movie he made. Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole, not like you! Yes, Burning Sensations shows itself again doing the incredible cover of the Modern Lovers. Jonathan Richman rocks! If you don't own any of the Modern Lovers, get it here: http://goldenbrown77.blogspot.com/2009/03/jonathan-richman-modern-lovers-23-great.html

A must!!!

Okay, who snuck in Rik L Rik into this comp? Me, of course~ Friggin love The Outback! I saw you runnin out in the outback. I call to you but you didn't look back... so sad.

Yes. You've waited patiently for this one and here you go! Shadowplay from the greatest band from Manchester, Warsaw or more commonly known, Joy Division. Have you seen Control, yet?
It's worth a rental view. So long Ian and thank you! Waitiing for you, waiting for you!

Another dead rockstar you say, no! Adam isn't dead. I actually heard he is touring or going to. Here is a not so popular tune of his, called Never Trust A Man (With Egg On His Face). It kinda of flows with the Outback and the outer space theme going on, maybe. She heard the voices calling her from outer space.

O' Classic Gentlemen! Now, get down and praise thee with not one, not two of the three shadows but all three! How often does this occur on comp goth discs? Never. I tell you. Sit back and listen to the sooth of Bauhaus doing The Three Shadows Part 1,2 & 3. I will awlays exist because I always exist... Are you thirsty now?

Yes, the Cure is here doing Sinking. The last track off The Head on the Door disc. You must find out who you are! Blessings to you! I am slowing down as the years go by, I am sinking.So, I trick myself like everbody else. Man, ain't that the truth.

And finally the last track- Tones on Tail doing Real Life. Give me something for nothing, okay!

All the random noise came from an old tv show called New Wave Theater:

Fly low and avoid the radar! Enjoy!
