Featured Soundtrack...

Same band, same bike theme. This cover from Christopher Cross hit is to my opinion one of the best cover ever.

 

I prefer it to the Cross version. It loses the saccharin and gains an edge.

 

I respectfully disagree.
Yes Christopher Cross song is a massive hit, with all west coast music codes, but I think that british heavy metal sound suits very well with that tune.

 

I haven’t got anything again the west coast sound at all. I am quite a Steely Dan fan. There’s something about Chris’s voice that just doesn’t do it for me, I guess.

 

The high pitch voice is something special. Some like some hate.
I had my Toto moment some years ago, and played a lot of those songs. I still like that west coast clean and polite sound.

 

Yeah, but I can't say it's just the pitch as I'm also a Rush fan. I still think Toto IV is a great album.

 

Like Bowie fronting the Smiths. Cool cookie, Brett Anderson

 

Today's VBRS is inspired by someone's electrical problems in another thread.

 

Today's VBRS.

 

Today's VBRS. Something from the 'alt' world of pop.

 

I never really explored the Eels… Peaches never struck a chord… not like someone else’s peaches!

 

I've always loved that bass sound. It's so in-your-face.

 

Great rock band, they stayed away from the Thin Lizzy moniker.

 

That sound reminds me somehow the Foo Fighters

 

There are definitely some noticeable influences in there. They do say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

 

Only one VBRS to be played today. RIP Meat Loaf.

 

RIP Loaf

And this. And if Patti wrapped herself round me like this i'd be ecstatic.
