Breadcrumbs dropped on music wanderings.
Anyway, the actual reason I logged in is to clear out some tabs of daggy Australiana I’ve had waiting for months.
I’ve been trying to do some Summer compilations, but none of them are working right. I thought of these songs again: Lots of popular 80s Australian music reminds me of orange skies on Summer nights.
I hate the name Mondo Rock so much. And I say this guy solo at a festival once and he was a massive wanker.
Guy can still hit that high note in 2022, fyi.
Not gunna post them, but you can go on a little yt journey from here and find footage of these great concerts with a bunch of these guy groups all performing together.
Wow, his mate’s fucking creepy.
Wow, what a shit chorus. Beautiful tan though.
And I guess this is the second best hey.
I got real excited dancing to this song once last year. I couldn’t remember having heard it before. Maybe it was just the drugs, maybe it was a different mix, but it seemed to go on a lot longer. The bass was real loud. Definitely best ABBA song.

Cover of that song from Top Gun.
Song doesn’t really show it, but she has a nice breathy, Akina Nakamori-like voice.
I also like her song Cha-Cha-Cha, off the same album.
Not big on all the talking, but the band is really good.
Not sure why this was in the tab next door, but it’s a good member of the phone-number-song genre.
Dunno how I got here, but this as in a tab I’ve had open for months.
On the current listen it was really bugging me I couldn’t figure out what it reminded me of. Those bass and twangy electric piano sounds. Clicking on other things realised I’d heard his song Holiday Action a bunch of times on the Doing It In Lagos compilation.
