Subject: Dead Or Alive - The Group!

Written By: Hairspray on 06/01/04 at 7:05 pm

I voted "In Too Deep". 8)

The album to get, especially if you want to assess how you feel about this group's music is Rip It Up.

Oh shoot, you're right and "Come Home With Me Baby" is an excellent tune! I'll be modifying the poll momentarily. ;)

Done.

Oh and while I'm here, "In Too Deep" is still my fave. :D

I went with 'You spin me right round (like a record)'. It's the only one I know. Oh! Hang on they did a really bad cover of some song but I forgot what it was . . .  ???

Did you click on the "More Info" link? I recommend this album because I believe that if you like "You Spin Me 'Round (Like a Record)", you will like the others. ;) Would I steer you wrong, Bobby? 8) 'Course not. :)

Lol. I didn't to be honest, Hairspray. I have had a look and I will get a listen of those hits in the very near future.

I trust your judgement implicitly.  ;)

I love the Watch out here I come part in You Spin Me, so that's what I voted for. But I do like Brand New Lover as well.

Hairspray.

I am so sorry not to have looked at your link earlier. I didn't realise you could hear the tracks of the album on there (duh!). Apologies for my dismissiveness and I will have a listen to the tracks tomorrow because it's very late at night and my headphone batteries need charging.  :)

I have sent you a PM. At this point, I still had the thought that the only way to hear the tracks was to get hold of the album from a shop somewhere.  ::)

Please forgive me.  :\'(

As a consolation, at least I've bumped the thread up.  :D

Which is a bit handy, as I'd've missed it...!

Bobby, I think the 'cover' song you referred to earlier was 'That's The Way I Like It' - and you're quite right, it's woeful...!! Rather like how Pete Burns looks these days...!!

"Spin' was okay for it's time (one of the earliest SAW collaborations), but eventually I went for 'In Too Deep'...

I know it is kind of a stupid song but I had to go with You spin me 'round. I can't help it, I like that stupid song.  :-[  I thought of it every time I saw DJMidas' old advatar.  ;)

I chose "My Heart Goes Bang," and it's followed closely behind by "Brand New Lover." I'm really, really bored with "You Spin Me 'Round (Like A Record)"....

Written By: Niko101 on 09/10/04 at 8:31 am

  Okay, so I cannot vote on this one due to my problem with Pete Burns. But I do want to share this with the forum:
  About 6 years ago, Dead or Alive (aka Pete Burns with a tour band) booked a tour around the US. What the venues involved did not know was that Pete had no intention of actually playing these shows. His "manager" contacted the clubs and tried to convince them that it was normal policy to pay the fee in advance to set the date(s). Most clubs, including the one here in Seattle, knew that this was a lie and refused to pre-pay for the gig. Others were not so lucky. The Crystal Ballroom in Portland was one of the unfortunate victims in this scam. Sure enough, there was no tour and no refunds. I also know some folks in San Francisco that had a bad concert experience years earlier. It seems that Mr. Burns went on a bit of a rant on stage about how he hates America. Hmmm...but I guess he has no problem with American money? ???

"Brand New Lover" for me, though I'm a big fan of "My Heart Goes Bang" and "Something in My House."

I've always been a big fan of DOA. My favorite song is definitely "Brand New Lover", but "You Spin Me 'Round (Like a Record)" is an all-time 80s classic! :)
