Familiar & forgotten gems from 50-plus years of music on the darker side, shoegaze, synthpop, goth, psychedelia, darkwave, with unapologetic detours into 70s pop. In a dark night of the soul, it's always 3 o'clock in the morning.

Isn't it always the way with Phantoms of the Paradise: the second you let them out, they want back in.

Dark afternoon of the Phantom.

Howdy Uncle Michael! Hiya Parq!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:24pm
Parq:

Julie, are you going to the LL 25th this weekend. I knew it would sell out instantly, so I never even tried to buy tix, but it's bound to be sensational.
Avatar 12:25pm
Julie:

You know it, I love Paul y'know.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:26pm
Parq:

Hee. Did I inspire you, or is this a coincidence?
Avatar 12:26pm
Julie:

speaking of which....
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:27pm
Parq:

Hey! Dude! Where's my car!
Avatar 12:27pm
Julie:

oh no..I already had a Williams set planned, and I found this in my glam rock hunt so decided I had to lnclude it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:33pm
Parq:

Oh, yeah, they did! That was the very first LL disc I bought, and I think it's still my fave. That's from the show they did at Westbeth just days after 9/11.

Hi Julie! :)

"Ballroom Blitz" got a bit of a 1992 NYC radio play bump after it was covered in Wayne's World, but few stations delved any deeper into Sweet than that track.
Avatar 12:42pm
Julie:

Oh good to know Parq! I thought it might have been a bootleg
Avatar 12:43pm
Julie:

heya Psycho Jim!
Avatar 12:47pm
Julie:

I'm sure Wayne's world put Bo Rhap back on the charts too
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:54pm
listener james from westwood:

Definitely back on the air (radio & MTV) if not the charts!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:58pm
Parq:

Okay, one more LL reference and then I'll stop. When they did their second Queen show, the entire band and backup singers did Boho Rhap. McG introduced it by saying that the audience could help "by getting just as Wayne's Wolrd as you wanna be." I , for one, cheerfully complied.
Avatar 12:59pm
Julie:

I really wish I had been going all these years
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:02pm
Parq:

Well, Mrs. Parq and I hardly ever go any more, so we've sort of passed the torch to you.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:12pm
listener james from westwood:

Who knew Altered Images covered this?! Wow!!
Avatar 1:13pm
Julie:

I found out literally yesterday, isn't it amazing??
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:16pm
Parq:

I'm not a huge A.I. fan, but that cover was way cool.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:22pm
listener james from westwood:

Williams cowrote the music and lyrics to The Muppet Movie. Huge props to the LL if they go there.
Avatar 1:22pm
Julie:

oh I'm sure they will

Julie:

bugsy malone too! I didn't bring any of that though
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:24pm
Parq:

Let's not forget the time Paul was a playing-himself guest on the Odd Couple, with Felix's daughter having an obsessive crush on him.
Avatar 1:25pm
Julie:

I remember it well. But that was the fake Edna.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:28pm

Oh gosh, I love this Hunky Dory song.

Yeah, Julie, she didn't make it, did she?

I hated the Carpenters when i was a kid. I was wrong. There, I said it.
