I'm listening to "Big In Japan" right now, great song by Alphaville. Anyone else like anything by them?

Devolution here,

Good group, good songs. Nothing that I will pull the car over and listen to, but nice overall.

We are DEVO

This is the movie that really got me listening to Alaphville. The song Forever Young was used in the Prom Scene.

"Forever ever young i wont to be forever young...do you really want to live forever" [Big Grin]

Such a great european sound to it, love the way he gets to those very high notes towards the end, with a triumphant trumpet fade. 80'srocked, do you find the singer to look a tad Jaromir Jagr-ish? Maybe It's the puffy hair and mullet. LOL.

Haha. I can see a touch of Jagr there. More like the younger, Penguins Jagr though.

I love both those tunes - Forever Young and Big in Japan.

God, it seems so long ago when he was a Penguin, remember when he used to score he would twirl his golve or something? Hey, I was watching some pre-season highlights of Rangers/Seanators and I see Nedved had a goal, so I guess he's trying to make a comeback.

I watched about half of that preseason game last night. Rangers didn't look half bad. Nedved looked very good too. We'll see. I better stop here or this will become another hockey thread and others might get upset. [Wink]
