Buggles - The plastic age LIVE

Buggles LIVE performing for Princes Trust November 11, 2004 .
All of the musicians who recorded the song in 1979, including Buggle Geoff Downes and vocalists Debi Doss and Linda Jardin, are present and performing it for a live audience for the first time.
This is absolutely the tightest, most perfectly performed live music I can recall ever hearing. Folks, you're not supposed to be able to do this to this degree. This is a complex song, and to reproduce the vocals, the instrumentation, and the mix to this level of excellence must have required a tremendous amount of rehearsal. It's just uncanny to listen to. I've picked it to pieces, and I don't think they cheated on a single note.
Trevor Horn is such a dignified, yet clearly reluctant, frontman. It makes him all the more endearing. Im Jahre 2004 feierte einer der erfolgreichsten Musikproduzenten sein 25. Jahr im Musikbusiness. Anlässlich des Konzertes zugunsten des Prince's Trust von Prince Charles in der Londoner Wembley Arena, gönnte sich Trevor Horn ein Staraufgebot der Extraklasse. Schützlinge wie Yes, Seal, Pet Shop Boys, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Grace Jones, Lisa Stansfield, ABC, Art of Noise, Propaganda, Belle & Sebastian, T.a.t.u. und natürlich den Buggles teilten mit ihm die Bühne und boten einen gelungenen Querschnitt durch die Songs seiner eindrucksvollen Karriere.

Everoyne thinks that this song was not original, that he was lip sinking and i can tell you that he is not because he was live, and that the audience was not a bunch of little kids that scream during the song is playing. The croud is all adults that actully enjoy the experience the being at a concert, Not just wanting to try to get to meat the lead singer. I was at that concer and this is how i know this. And i fel ashamed that anyone in tier right mind would even screm during a concert. Thanks

You sure this is live? Sounds like the studio version to me. Lipsynching perhaps?

[handballfan01]
