too punk to drunk
Fucken love this track and the clip on YouTube...Like a cross between the New York Dolls, Thin Lizzy and Kraftwerk!

Boys, now the times are changing

Classic, and what about this little glam-trash-Streisandesque number:


- who could have predicted the brittle cubist sino-funk and synthesised Proustian torch songs that followed? Although listening through Obscure Alternatives and Quiet Life the transition is more gradual than is sometimes claimed...

I love this song.

I also love Japan: Adolescent Sex, Gentlemen Take Polaroids, Tin Drum and Quiet Life are all immense. I like their earlier pop-oriented stuff just as much as their later new wave records. I can't fully describe it, I just find everything about them great. I'll probably think differently in a few weeks time, when I've tired of playing their records repeatedly.
