Among so many tracks I have grabbed in recent months, I find myself listening to this off and on often (and yes it sort of goes with my post elsewhere):

Back in 1967 (??), Michelle Phillips protested having to lip sync on the Ed Sullivan show by eating half a banana during California Dreamin' when she was supposed to be "singing."

Aside from that, I can't recall a band looking less like they wanted to be making a video. Maybe this was made during yet another of their Peaved Periods. Great tune, though.

Me, too 80’s!

I finally found, after years of searching and only one line of lyrics I could remember, the first song I slow danced to when I was 13. And omg ha ha the lyrics. It’s supposed to be about absentee fathers or something, but anyway, weird I was swaying to it with my arms wrapped around a much older shaved-head punk at a basement party.

The lyrics I could only recall we’re “Come to daddy, come on.”

That whole soundtrack is awesome. End Of Line.

That song is a banger, really does have a lizard-fascist feel. The point of the original miniseries isn't subtle when the guy who tells the teenagers how to do a proper V graffiti is an elderly Holocaust survivor. Fuck fascism! Perhaps NBC should have reshown the original during 2016 and 2024.

Yup, 80's.

Woah, that song is older than I thought.

A nod to Kamilah's soundtrack focus, here's something from the original *cough cough* The Return of the King by Rankin/Bass - which was released in...1980!
