ASFM: dmlawdifestivalen: Forgotten Hits - Semi Final 1 listening party 20/04/2021 8pm

[Suomi]

I do think the album mix (NOT the Stargate single mix) of Something Deep Inside could have been a better leap for victory though

 

[Kate]

God she was still only 17 here

 

[Suomi]

director: do something whacky!
billie: okay
*begins a wash cycle*

 

[Kate]

Really trying to work out who sent that. Surely @Soldi wouldn't go that obvious again after the Holly FIASCO?

 

[HerSereneHighnessAnniFrid]

Kiki Dee is such a positive addition

 

[Kate]

Kiki!

 

[Kate]

I do know this one

 

[ButterTart]

Kiki was the revelation of last night. I remember it from when I was little but I've not heard it in years and had no idea who sang it.

Was it the theme tune to Opportunity Knocks or something, or am I just making shit up?

 

[Kate]

It's quite ABBA really

 

[HerSereneHighnessAnniFrid]

I honestly

I was just trying to work out which 80s/90s tv show this was from?

 

[ButterTart]

Also - I don't know why everyone is up in arms about Billie Piper being too famous for the contest when MR ROBOTO is in the same heat.

 

[HerSereneHighnessAnniFrid]

I really really only know it from a tv show

 

[ButterTart]

I honestly

Right? The chorus is putting me in mind of something.

 

[Kate]

I genuinely did not know Mr Roboto

 

[Suomi]

Omg E-Type - love all his hits! This is a slinky number

 

[Kate]

After a quiet period in the late 1970s, Dee launched a comeback in 1981, releasing one of her biggest hits, "Star", written by Doreen Chanter of the Chanter Sisters. This later became the theme music to the BBC1 programme Opportunity Knocks between 1987 and 1990.

 

[ButterTart]

I really really only know it from a tv show

Apparently it was from New Faces

 

[Suomi]

this is Jessica Folcker’s vocal but why no credit

 

[Kate]

Did E-Type have other hits? They seem very familiar.

 

[Soldi]

Really trying to work out who sent that. Surely @Soldi wouldn't go that obvious again after the Holly FIASCO?

Bitch I’m not taking part

 

[Kate]

(and not just because they sound like Ace of Base)

Oh shit I was right! And that wanker on Google told me a load of shit about it being from New Faces.

Angels Crying was in dance rate.

This is the Way
Angels Crying
Life

[Kate]

KEY CHANGE!

 

[ButterTart]

This is the Way
Angels Crying
Life

oh my god I love LIFE I’m adding it to my Spotify now

I don't want to embarrass you, but Life was actually by a very talented gentleman called Des Ray.

 

[Kate]

Yes this 90s bitch likes this.

 

[Suomi]

Love this piano

 

[Kate]

MORE 90s! Julia Roberts looks a bit different, has she had work done?

 

[HerSereneHighnessAnniFrid]

Yes this is very good

 

[Kate]

I do know this one too.

 

[Kate]

Oooh is that the end already! Crikey.

 

[Suomi]

a great job with playlisting dmlaw

overall a very enjoyable semi, particularly the opening section

 

[HerSereneHighnessAnniFrid]

Well that was a really nice little list!

 

[Kate]

Up next... Kano - Another Life lol

 

[HerSereneHighnessAnniFrid]

Some definite gems in there

 

[ButterTart]

I'm really very excited for tomorrow

 

[Kate]

YES roll on tomorrow

 

[Berly]

I’m listening to The Sound of White to counteract all of the hostility to poor Missy.
