found in my notes that singeli is “music that can make a dead man walk”, don’t know whose quote that is or if I came up with it myself, but it’s no lie

if DJ Travella comes to your town (he might, clue’s in his name), be there, he’s the best, you’ll have the time of your life (ditto: Sisso & Maiko)

fun exercise after the fact, since I hadn’t been paying any mind to the years the songs in the final groups came out. the spread turned out to be pretty even: 1982 (6) / 1983 (4) / 1984 (6) / 1985 (4). funnily enough, the two ‘fallow’ years delivered my top picks - my #1s from ‘83, my #2s from ‘85!

I would like to highlight this important bit of context for certain PPPeople on here, and make it some shite to remember:

that was quite the doPPPle PPPill tonight: 🇰🇪🇺🇬MC Yallah and 🇦🇴🇵🇹PPPongo! Yallah (with Debmaster) was a bit too aural assault for me, but Pongo was a fooqqin BLAST from start to finish. she finished with what she called her ‘best song’…. “UWA” of course!!! (and then played one more for the hell of it)

two great ballads: “Greatest Love Of All” & “Saving All My Love For You”

two great uptempos: “How Will I Know” & “Thinking About You”

I will also accept the uptempo/ballad pair of “Someone Like You” and “You Give Good Love”

see my Whitney trajectory below, mainly based on my singles purchases:

couldn’t have predicted tonight’s concert (in a church!) by US-Indian singer+ Ganavya would have an overlap with our PPPoll, but the melody (and some words) of the traditional she had us sing along with at the end sounded familiar. why, it was the same “500 Miles” interpolated in “Stop That Train”!

btw the YouTube above does link to the single version!

(also, Clive Davis is such a bag of shit)

(still think back regularly on the 2022 Whitney biopic, which was shamelessly Clive-washed to a comical extent)

clearly that’s because Bowie got to the concept first in “China Girl”

(unfortunately this doesn’t explain why he’s not credited in the Go-Go’s version)

“Hopscotch” is my main, in fact, GWEN GUTHRIE is my main.

what else is there for me to say other than what I said someplace else a couple of years ago?
