Song Sunday: Huey Lewis and the News

My good friend/Godsister invited me to see this band perform about two years ago at a popular winery located not too far from where we grew up. I love ’80s music and at that point in time, I needed some cheering up since one of my cousins had just passed away and I wasn’t able to make it to her funeral.

Enjoy and have a great week.  🙂

No Doubt’s ‘Tragic Kingdom’ Turns 20

On Oct. 10, 2005, the Anaheim-based band No Doubt released their third album/CD, ‘Tragic Kingdom.’ The first single off the album was “Just A Girl,” then followed by my personal favorite, “Spiderwebs,” then by “Sunday Morning” and “Don’t Speak.”

I’ve never had the opportunity to see the band perform live. Guess I’ll just add this onto my bucketlist!

In the meantime, please enjoy this tune!

Throwback Thursday: Tears For Fears

I was driving home from an appointment earlier this week when I heard this song on the radio. I’ve always loved this tune because it reminds me of my childhood…specifically when my parents, siblings and I drove the same route–as seen during the freeway sequence–every year to visit my mother’s family in Southern California. ♫ ♥ ♪

Song Sunday: “Serious” by Duran Duran

When Duran Duran released the song “Serious” on Oct. 1, 1990, it was during this time when the band consisted of only 3 original members: Simon Le Bon, John Taylor and Nick Rhodes. During this phase, the band was joined by guitarist Warren Cuccurullo (formerly of the band Missing Persons, which he also co-founded) and drummer Sterling Campbell.

Twenty-five-years later, I hope they’ll perform this song on October 2, when my friends and I see them in concert.  ☺

Tuneful Tuesday: Pressure Off by Duran Duran

Last week, Duran Duran released their newest single in five years. The single titled “Pressure Off” features Janelle Monáe on guest vocals and Niles Rodgers, co-founder and lead guitarist of the band Chic. The song has been garnered as one of the band’s “best singles in years.” Rodgers and Mark Ronson co-produced the song, as well as the upcoming album.

Duran Duran’s 14th album, Paper Gods, is scheduled for release Sept. 18.

What do you think of the new song?
