Music you like but don't want your friends to know you like it

With the screaming and comedy


Just the song

 

[Monocrom]

Guilty pleasure.

 

[PhotonWrangler]

The electronic-pop sounds of Jean Jacques Perrey and Gershon Kingsley. If you've ever seen Disney's Main Street Electrical Parade, you've heard their work. Here's one of my faves.

 

[Flying Turtle]

Passport to the Future reminded me of another obscure one, Telstar by the Tornadoes. That was the first record I ever bought, back in 1962.

Never bought the 45 but thought the instrumental was very cool

Telstar! Yes it does remind me of that one. They are cut from the same cloth.

Since I can post about any music here I found something actually controversial.

I see your Perrey and Kinglsey and raise with Ray Lynch - Celestial Soda Pop. I hadn't heard this in 30+ years and it came on random.

I have this album. It's a mellower version of Perrey-Kingsley.

Wow! That's the first time I've actually seen and heard Gershon Kingsley speak! This is so cool! Thanks!

Guilty pleasure.

I found this version a few years back and was the first time I'd ever heard this song:

 

[MatthewMurdock]

So very catchy. I love it.... shhhhh, don't tell anyone.



Might be showing my age.... Xanadu soundtrack....

The Pi Song reminds me of what would happen when someone just got their first digital watch and you asked them what time it is. "Well it's 12:47 and 10 seconds...11...12...13...14..."

Dat stroboscopic disco light show.

I remember finding this video under a different title in 2015 when I was really into Maddie Ziegler's dancing. It lead me down a rabbit hole of Belle & Sebastian music which I liked about as much as Jens Lekman which turns out inspired them. Some of their stuff on BBC Sessions was just wonderful.









I used to like to listen to this music when I biked around in the state capitol.

Speaking of Kraftwerk, I like their song "Pocket Calculator" complete with all its goofy lyrics and sounds.

BTW in that song near the end is a rapid burst of audio tones, which to me sounds like an old Motorola land mobile radio data format called MODAT. It could probably be decoded, wonder if the numbers constitute a secret message...

Does anyone remember "A Walk In the Black Forest" by Horst Jankowski, a cheery little tune from decades ago, was popular on AM radio.
