I love Cindy's "off the hook" cool voice!So original.Her vocals really made Hero Worship, Dance This Mess Around, Give Me Back My Man, Queen Of Las Vegas, Loveland, Girl From Ipanema Goes To Greenland, Aint It A Shame, She Breaks For Rainbows, Love Shack, Channel Z, Cosmic Thing, Deadbeat Club, Debbie, Deviant Ingredient and Love In The Year 3000!
When the video starts, its from the VH1 Big Backyard BBQ, I think. I would LOVE to have the full performance. They did Summer of Love and Debbie live that night.
Saddens me when I see the band with new players and the girls stretching their chords, but they had a great run and brought so much original art to music. Love the five-twos.
In order to post I had to type "hasaladin" which sounds suspiciously like a pledge to Allah, but anyroad, I had to give up my seat in heaven to comment upon Kate Pierson; She is gorgeous and she reminds me of Elsie Tanner's daughter, the one that married tha polack.
damn..those basslines are solid..fat sound..and the drummer too..the rhythm section is pretty tight. are they the guys in the loveshack music video right?
The bass is sounding damn good on this. I was tabbed into something else listening to it and started humming the bass line. Then tabbed back over to see this comment.
que hermosa es kate perison cantando donde este us hermosa voz y tbn su figura en el video de Shiny Happy People con REM tbn explaya su gran voz y hermosura y al fin podremos verlos en Peru este 23 de abril
If angels really do exist, from that place that all of us hopefuls keep praying to, then I'd like to put Kate Pierson and Cindy Wilson up against them. I'll bet my soul onto this Earthly duo... And I'll win, soul intact!
i am amazed at how the B-52s always keep that happy "good old friend" mood...should check the real old stuff, they were so different, especially Kate and Cindy, they were of course younger, but I mean the mood was not so happy back in the 70's
Good grief! Someone kept going flat on the refrain. Probably difficulty hearing her voice or something. Singing live is tough because of the noise onstage, but one of the harmonies was *consistently* flat on the word "roam." Ugh.
Great! I love this song....that Jamie Lee Curtis is rock solid bass, and that gay guy cracks me up, too...he kinda reminds me of Nathan Lane in "The Birdcage"..
I can't imagine the last 30-years of my life with out them. Their music has uplifted my spirits so many times I can't count. They're the best natural high in the world! Can't wait for the release of their new album
In the very late 1980s/early 90s, R.E.M., with songs like Stand and Shiny Happy People, entered a period in which it (partly) seemed most in synch with the joyous spirit of that other great Athens, Georgia band, The B52s. With some beautiful singing and thought provoking lyrics, this quirky, clever , fun 50s/early 60s inspired band ideally deserve for Roam to become as well known as Love shack because Roam is simply one of the best, and best performed, songs ever made.
