This week In Male Balladeers 04/52
D’Angelo’s "Devil's Pie," a gritty DJ Premier collaboration, critiques materialism through stripped-back funk, while José James’ “Trouble” channels Bill Withers and Sly Stone with swagger and emotional depth. Aaron Neville softens Leonard Cohen’s "Bird on the Wire" with smooth harmonies, and INXS’s "Beautiful Girl" conveys heartfelt simplicity. Curtis Mayfield’s "People Get Ready" remains a Civil Rights anthem of optimism, and Little Feat’s jazzy “Dixie Chicken” revels in playful storytelling and timeless charm. Dean Martin’s serene take on “It’s Easy to Remember” pairs elegant restraint with nostalgia, while Robert Wyatt’s surreal “Sea Song” from *Rock Bottom* balances tender minimalism with dreamlike ambiguity. Neil Finn’s “Fall at Your Feet” from Crowded House centers on quiet vulnerability and enduring sincerity.
‘Vous Avez Dit Bizarre’ N°532 – Vintage 80s Music Videos
Talking Heads’ hypnotic “This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)” delivers minimalist charm with its swapped instruments and anti-sentimental love themes, while John Lennon’s posthumous “Nobody Told Me” blends witty chaos with rock rhythms. Twisted Sister reimagines “Leader of the Pack” with glam-metal flair, and ELO’s “Here Is the News” shines with dystopian synth-pop experimentation. Big Country’s “Just a Shadow” leans on intricate guitar work mimicking bagpipes, while The Triffids' “Trick of the Light” weaves atmospheric tension and emotion into post-punk storytelling.
‘Look Ma, No Mike!’ N°6 – Vintage 80s Music Videos
Lindsey Buckingham’s "Trouble" blends introspective artistry with radio-ready charm, driven largely by his own production and instrumentation. The Jam’s politically charged "Going Underground" captures 1980s unrest with sharp mod revival energy, while "Wonderland" by Big Country channels Scottish landscapes through bagpipe-like guitar riffs. Siouxsie and the Banshees transform Dylan’s "This Wheel’s on Fire" into a haunting gothic twist, and Eurythmics’ "Julia" delivers eerie minimalism tied to *1984*. Level 42’s "Tracie" softens their funk roots with polished sentiment, while The Mighty Lemon Drops’ jangly "Inside Out" merges post-punk introspection with shimmering indie tones. The Psychedelic Furs’ "Angels Don’t Cry" mirrors emotional loss through glossy late-'80s production, and Prefab Sprout’s "Don’t Sing" blends clever lyricism with jazzy, indie-pop ambition.
