Road Runner - Imelda May



I have been neglecting this blog for a long time now, but there has been so much else going on that I haven't had time. But I'll try to be a little better at posting from now on (I know I've promised that before...).

This is a new single by Imelda May, that can be found on the special edition of her critically acclaimed album - titled More Mayhem.

Skibet Skal Sejle I Nat - Birthe Wilke and Gustav Winckler



Since it's the Eurovision Song Contest this evening I thought I'd treat you to a real oldie. This was Denmarks entry for 1957. The Eurovision Song Contest was held in Frankfurt that year, and the Danish entry was visually one of the most impressive ones that year: to illustrate the content of the song, which is about a sailor who has to say goodbye to a woman he met and fell in love with during a shore leave, Winckler was dressed up as a sailor and Wilke as a woman standing at the harbour wearing a coat with a purse in her hand. Furthermore, a tar vat was brought on stage to create a harbour atmosphere.

A little fun note is that the kiss at the end is the longest in eurovision history. According to some sources the production crew forgot to signal stop so Birthe and Gustav didn't know when to stop kissing. The kiss was also found provocative by some countries.

Let's Twist Again - Chubby Checker



Actually this is kind of a like/hate song. When I was young we had to sing this song every music lesson in school. You got kind of bored with it before school was over.
