Last night I was going through a pile of old mail and magazines, and I came across the latest issue of Lexicon. (For those of you who don't know, Lexicon covers pop/synthpop from the 80s, as well as the current synth/techno scene.) The magazine published its list of the 100 best albums of the 80s, as voted by Lexicon readers. I only had a chance to skim the list, but was "Rhythm Of Youth" anywhere on that list? I'm going to go back and look it over again this evening, but I don't remember seeing it. I was surprised by some of the entries, and their positions. "Cupid & Psyche '85" by Scritti Politti was number 40 or something like that. The top spot was taken by ABC's "Lexicon Of Love" (!). That surprised me. Tears For Fears' "Songs From The Big Chair" and "The Hurting" were both in the top 10. Talking Heads were up there, as were Propoganda (another surprise).

This was a list voted on by Lexicon readers and by people on the web. I think I posted a message on this gorup, but may not have (not all my messages seem to make it through). I was suprised too, but hey, things happen. By the way, there is a Scandanavian band called Chinese Detectives who have a new album out called "Are Kisses Out of Fashion." The whole album is a bumch of covers of '80s songs, it is very good. One of the covers is "Where Do The Boys Go?" It's not bad, they have a female vocalist, so it sounds different enough from the original, although they use mostly synths as well. Their website is www.planetrecords.no. I guess that means they are from Norway, huh?

Does anybody have ANY feelings at all on songs or are they all exhausted??.....God, it's weird, I mean, I'm a pretty normal kid. My friends laugh at me sometimes when I say I'm on an e-mail list for an 80's band, but I actually used to like hearing what everybody had to say here. It has just seemed to dry up so much recently....ever since we couldn't get the bootlegs....although i'm only 21 (actually, i just turned 21 about 9 MINUTES ago) I've been on the list for over 3 years. We used to talk about stuff, whether it was top 5 favorites, or what songs meant either literally or emotinally. While, most of the time, I would read the e-mails, and sometimes either not understand or not agree, often, I would hear songs in a different way after reading some comments. I'm not an e-mail junky so I understand if people don't check there mail often....but send a comment or two (ESPECIALLY ALL OF THE NEW PEOPLE ON THIS LIST)........you'll be amazed at the feedback you can get! For example, why does Ivan say that whole "And the old man looked at the young boy sharply in the eye...." speech on the live Great Ones Remember.....was that cut off the original?? --collin from savannah # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info hats" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email hats@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Men Without Hats discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?hats ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Stephen D.

But...it's always seemed to come and go in spurts. I'm as much to blame as anybody since I almost never post anything to the list and I've been on the list for a couple of years now. I actually have been wondering how many MWH fans have heard music from Rational Youth. I haven't heard anything from them, but if they sound anything like early MWH than I may have to purchase some of their cds. Also, has anybody heard Stefan's new band's, The Makenzie Parker Gang, cd? I've heard some of the samples of songs from his web site and quite liked them, but haven't heard the full cd. That's All Folks!

There's a weird '80s group called Stump that I like. Their music is very non-harmonic, and their lyrics are sometimes goofy and sometimes surreal. The closest thing I can compare them to is the Seinfeld theme song. Anyway, I found a fellow Stump fan on the net, who mentioned that he had all three of their videos. I had only heard about one of them, and had never even seen it, so he offered to make me a copy of those three, and fill up the rest of the tape with other videos he liked. There was a lot of Kraftwerk, some NiN, Prodigy, Squeeze, and others, and the very last video on it was Safety Dance! It was cool to find another MWH fan in an unexpected place.

(I was one of the hundreds of fans who sent an email to EMI Canada, begging for them to release CWNL on CD, which they eventually did. Tracy Howe autographed my copy dedicated "To my friend Anders"...) The new one, _To The Goddess Electricity_, is pretty good too - sounds a bit like the old material while also being modern. Don't know about _Heredity_ because I've never even seen a copy... They've put a bunch of songs online at www.mp3.com/rationalyouth - some seven or eight songs, I think. (Hope you're not too annoyed with my trying to plug RY, but I *am* a loyal fan and happen to think they're nice guys who deserve to sell a lot of records...)

I sang to a backing tape that a friend and I had recorded, using an Amiga 500 with some SoundTracker clone and a live synthesizer (Roland JX-3P, I think?) straight onto the tape - no overdubs! So, I sang, Jessica operated the only stage light we had (a floor lamp) and Mats danced like an utter loony. I think someone videoed it, but I've never seen a copy; the only visible evidence I have is a photo *I* took of the audience! We got the biggest applause of all the acts that night... (This proved to be the only performance ever of Kentucky Fried Kitten, as we called ourselves; we graduated six weeks later and moved to different parts of the country. I don't think the three of us have been in the same room more than once since then.) If I ever find a copy - audio or video - of our performance, I promise I'll sample it, make an MP3 file (or even an MPEG movie, if I can get a good video grabber) and put it online for your possible amusement. Still have the instrumental backing tape...

I had only heard about one of them, and had never even seen it, so he offered to make me a copy of those three, and fill up the rest of the tape with other videos he liked. There was a lot of Kraftwerk, some NiN, Prodigy, Squeeze, and others, and the very last video on it was Safety Dance! >> Are there other MWH music videos beside "Safety Dance?" For which songs? How about Ivan music videos? Are there any out there? What songs were used? I would love to see any or all of them, but they appear to be exceedingly difficult to come by. I would be grateful for any help with sourcing these. Thanks.

Does anyone know where that line about the old man and the boy and the village came from? Thanks for the Rational Youth CWNL recommendation. I've been wanting to try some old synth stuff and now I know where to start. If I was going to buy a Kraftwerk album too, what should I get? The inactivity on the list became apparent to me when November 14 passed and no one mentioned "Men Without Hats Day." A couple years ago someone on the list told us that a friend of his and he declared Nov. 14 "MWH Day" in reference to the song "Things in my life" from ROY: "Things like polyester pants and shoes don't make it easy to remember Was it here or yesterday, or wasn't it the 14th of November?" Then, on New Year's Eve, I played the entire "in the 21st Century" album driving to my friend's house. It was fascinating to think that ten years ago, as the 80s passed into the 90s, MWH was thinking about ten years ahead, the new century. One of my all-time favorites is "Here Come the 90s", so here's to "dreaming on the other side" of the millenium. I'm still interested in helping with the cover album, Aaron. hatlessly, Chris F.

I expressed interest in the cover album concept before, and now I'm relocating to New York City (from rural Minnesota) so it might be easier for me to physically interact with anyone that's around NYC and is also interested in covering MWH....I know the odds of finding a fellow aspiring Hats cover band member isn't too good, but I thought I'd give it a stab. Out of curiosity, do any of you hatters live in or around New York? Just wondering.... # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info hats" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email hats@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Men Without Hats discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?hats ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Alan Pendleton" Subject: Re: (hats) questions Date: 18 Jan 2000 01:16:49 PST If I was going to >buy a Kraftwerk album too, what should I get?

It was great to read so many hats-related messages after a long time... To celebrate this event, I decided to share a discography update with you: Long time ago, German list member Frank Spinath (still around?) sent me a photo copy of the back cover of his Folk3 CD. The Catalogue number is CDST18, but it has "Printed in West-Germany" printed on it. This suggests that there has been a German release of Folk3 on CD!! However, I do not remember if he told me what was written on the disc itself, or even what it was. So it might be possible, that the disc was made in Canada, and only the cover was made in Germany.

They weren't. "Rhythm Of Youth" was nowhre to be found. I was really really surprised. And disappointed.

One of my all-time favorites is "Here Come the > 90s", so here's to "dreaming on the other side" of the millenium. I was going to post a question on the list about that! :) I was wondering what everyone thought about the album and it's message now that we've passed the 90s since the album came out. I mean, it's pretty obvious we'd mention that, right? :) I don't have any thoughts now except for some negative ones; Ivan's message, to me anyway, was for the environment. Well, it was in style to be green in the early 90s but I'm afraid it's old news today ( But I'm hoping we do change our minds this DECADE (not millennium becuase that could mean 2999!). And be nicer to each other. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info hats" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email hats@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Men Without Hats discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?hats ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Aaron Gitlin" Subject: RE: (hats) (we're kinda) In the 21st Century Date: 18 Jan 2000 18:49:01 -0800 I think Ivan's partial message was about equal rights as well. It seems we're doing better now than we were. Women are more widely accepted in the workplace and in the military. They are also becoming more dominant in the household. It seems we're on the right track. We're also TRYING to spruce up our ecology, but I think that has a ways to go. All in all, Ivan's fears were warranted, and even partially addressed. Also, his worries about the government (Such as mentioned in I Like) which were warranted during the Cold War have seemed to become less relavant. He should write a new song for his next album about the media being the ones to spread the lies and propaganda -=). # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info hats" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email hats@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Men Without Hats discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?hats ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Kerry Gordon" Subject: (hats) Recent collection additions Date: 19 Jan 2000 17:39:09 -0500 Vinyl: 12" 45:=20 I Got The Message "Special Extended Remix"/ Freeways (Euromix)/ Utter Space PS same as 7" single 12" 33: Moonbeam Promo=20 Silver PS with Ivan on Guitar O Sole Mio Promo B&W PS with band and kids, Bon Homme & extras The Interview Album - Feb '88 Ivan on PGTW Promotion - 1 hour White Sleeve with pic of Ivan as per Moonbeam promo Any rarities?
