[Jawbreaker]

Superhero tune by a super-underrated band

[Dragon Crush]

Azure Ray - New Resolution

 

 

 

[Oubliette_Red]

The B-52's - Roam

 

[Dragon Crush]

Blue Foundation - Eyes On Fire (Zeds Dead Remix)

 

 

[Dragon Crush]

VAST - Touched

 

In the few places it would matter, VAST is all caps, it's an acronym for Visual Audio Sensory Theater, which is also the name of their debut album. This is their most famous song according to wikipedia, but they have quite a few other good songs.

[Dragon Crush]

Boy Hits Car - Man Without Skin

 

Yes, that's Robin from Teen Titans on bass.

[Doc_Scorpion]

Promised Neverland OP - Uverworld - Touch Off

(Eng lyrics in subtitles)

Not only a rockin' tune, but (by a narrow margin) my AOTY.

[Oubliette_Red]

Spin Doctors - Little Miss Can't Be Wrong

Woah.

 

I'm not sure what you mean by floor-gasm but I got goosebumps at the end.

 

@Barbarette Right!?

 

The lead singer's name is Floor Jansen (she is Dutch) and so that "chills up the spine with goosebumps"

sensation people get when she hits the finale was dubbed the Floor-gasm. Alas I cannot take credit, someone beat me to it.

 

 

@boggo2300 If you haven't already you really need to find the World Slavery Tour 85 concert. One of Maiden's best IMHO.

 

 

@Nyghtmaire Also Christmas Wrapping might just be my favorite holiday song. /e high five.

 

Moar Blink stuffz

Visual metaphors abound in these things (like people paying more attention to the celebrity image of Jisoo even

though the real one is standing right there until she slips up and then the cellphones become literal weapons).

 

 

Then there's the Disco Ball coated Tank.

Ah well different leg of the same tour then? Still awesome.

Did that 30 ft. tall Eddy erupt out the stage during your show as well?

Yeah, pretty much every night Eddie the 'ead burst through the stage (even though he wasn't just a head anymore by then!)

 

BTW that was the second time I'd seen them, also saw the Beast on the Road in 1982 as an even younger youngster 😄

And to pay homage to the original artist...

 

 

[Christopher Robin]

@Solarverse Great song sung by a couple of the all time greats.

 

 

Yes that is a middle-aged RJD in the foreground of the video.

Thanks.

 

Speaking of which, already established bands with their own back catalog of hits covering a classic

are one thing (I can take them or leave them depending on how well they do) but I'm usually

not too keen on kiddie garage cover bands. That said I think the atoms that used to make

up RJD might coalesce just enough to crack a smile at what these kids here are up to.

 

 

Liliac also does a decent cover of Metallica's Enter Sandman if you can forgive

the excess distortion and a few cheesy special FX (like the breaking glass).
