This will be the last post on this blog. If you are reading this and I thankyou if you are, I have not posted regularly on here for quite some time and it kinda makes sense. I started this blog back in 2011 as a way to share my thoughts on music but i just have not had time to write and spend time on the blog for the last year or so. Lets be honest i was not the world's best writer but I sure had fun sharing my musical thoughts and getting comments from you. But fear not, as i will still post regularly on my <a href="http://vinylluver.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">tumblr </a>site.<br />
<br />

One of the most anticipated re-unions of the year is MKS - MutyaKeishaSiobhan (orginal gals from the Sugababes) have just dropped their first video - FLATLINE. The song has received mixed reviews but I kind of like it. Its not got BIG HIT DANCE ANTHEM written all over it. Its more MELODIC COOL UNDERSTATED POP which I love!

Just discovered this ultra pop happy Scottish band called <span style="color: magenta;"><strong>CHVRCHES</strong></span> and they have this FAB pop song called <strong>GUN</strong> which is out on <strong>14 July</strong>. Check it out below.<br />

<a href="http://chvrch.es/" target="_blank">CHVRCHES</a> formed in 2011 and are from Glasgow. The group consists of Lauren Mayberry (lead vocals, additional synthesizers), Iain Cook (synthesizers, guitar, vocals), and Martin Doherty (synthesizers, vocals). They released an EP in March of this year called RECOVER. The band are really a synth-pop dream and I personally cannot wait for their longplayer <strong>THE BONES OF WHAT YOU BELIEVE</strong> to drop on 23/24 September UK/Rest of the World.
The band are also supporting DEPECHE MODE on some of their tour dates. <br />

Sorry for the radio silence but I dropped my laptop and didn't feel like blogging from my iphone!<br />
In the last few months I have been listening to <a href="http://www.teganandsara.com/" target="_blank">Tegan and Sara's</a> <strong>HEARTHTHROB</strong> album non-stop. I saw them live in April at the Sydney Opera House and they were so cool. This album is POP BLISS, there are no other words for it. It is my album of the year (so far). THAT IS ALL!<br />

Recently discovered deep within the Duran Duran vaults, these 11 tracks were constructed by blending television samples and looping rhythm tracks to create a sonically sophisticated collection of songs that now serve as the perfect backdrop for the frenetic energy and atmosphere of today’s digital age. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">

Shortly after Nick and Warren completed the final mixes, the original tapes were stored and the project was temporarily shelved as other priorities took hold. The intention was always to find the time between Duran Duran project cycles to go back and release the project - perhaps around some anniversary of the project’s inception. Although they discussed it often over the years, it wasn’t until recently when going through material at an out-of-town storage facility, to digitize old masters that were held there, Rhodes discovered the original TV Mania tapes misfiled, and he decided they were long overdue for a release.</div>

Produced by TV Mania (Rhodes and Cuccurullo), Mark Tinley and Anthony J Resta, and mixed by Bob St. John, <strong style="background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><em style="background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Bored With Prozac and The Internet?</em></strong> is a conceptual soundtrack for what the duo imagined as a “bizarre TV cyber soap opera,” about a family who gives away their freedom to scientists in exchange for a Hi-tech modern lifestyle and reality show fame. “We were envisioning a world where a family would give up their day-to-day privacy and allow their existence to be televised to the masses, and this was two years before the film, <em style="background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The Truman Show</em> and four years before <em style="background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Survivor</em>,” said <strong style="background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Cuccurullo</strong>. “Now everyone is giving away their most intimate details online and on reality TV.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
At the time of the album’s creation, the Internet was in its infancy and reality TV only existed in the form of MTV’s hit show <em style="background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The Real World</em>. Back then, the TV shows we indulge in today could only be imagined as pure science fiction. Aside from reality TV, the album also explores a broad range of other modern themes, including virtual shopping, surveillance, pharmaceutical drugs, fashion, film, fame and faith. All of which are now ubiquitous in our society, but mostly were not then. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“When I found the master recordings, I thought ‘Wow, this sounds unbelievably contemporary’” said <strong style="background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Rhodes</strong>. “When we put them up on the system, it was not only a great surprise, given what we had thought their fate was, but it was also literally like finding a painting and blowing the dust off of it. Times have certainly changed since we made the record, but the subject matter that inspired this album happens to be at the forefront of today’s world, so the songs have weathered the test of time in a strangely beautiful way.”</div>

My New Years resolution has completely failed and that was me writing at least 1 blog post a week. It also doesn't help that I have become obsessed with <b>TUMBLR</b> of late. Its my new favourite Social Media website of late. You can follow me as surprise surprise <a href="http://vinylluver.tumblr.com/" target="_blank"><b>VINYLLUVER</b></a>.<br />
<br />
Today is the Sydney Mardi Gras parade. Last year I did a <a href="http://vinylluver.blogspot.com.au/2012/03/lets-celebrate-sydney-mardi-gras.html" target="_blank"><b>long post</b></a> about it. This year it is very much a subdued affair but I shall be venturing out with Brettystar to soak up the atmosphere (thats if we don't get scared by the rain).<br />
<br />
This year the City of Sydney have painted a <b>RAINBOW</b> (go figure) across Oxford St, in the heart of gay Sydney and it seems to have caused some controversy. The photo is below. I kind of love it and think they should keep it. Happy Mardi Gras from Sydney!!!!!<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm off to see <a href="http://www.batforlashes.com/" target="_blank"><b>Bat for Lashes</b></a> tomorrow night and I can't wait to hear <b>LAURA</b>. LAURA which was the lead single from the Bats 3rd album <i>The Haunted Man, </i>and also one of my <a href="http://vinylluver.blogspot.com.au/2012/12/top-10-songs-of-2012.html" target="_blank">favourite tracks of 2012</a>. I am very excited to be seeing Natasha Khan in the comforts of the Enmore Theatre in Sydney.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Bat for Lashes is kind of a mish mash of various genres of music. She's moody, atmospheric, part tribal, an electronica queen. Lots of beats with a lovely voice to boot. I like her uniqueness in today's bland world of pop. In some ways she reminds me of the Kate Bush and sometimes Bjork. I also like the fact that she released a cover of Depeche Mode's <b>STRANGELOVE</b> for Record Store Day last year. You can listen to it below. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've been hearing the name <b>Solange</b> on various social media sites/websites for the past year and I stumbled across the video for <b>LOSING YOU</b> while watching Rage on Saturday morning this weekend (only free to air music show left in Oz). I remember that Beyonce had a sister called Solange and it is indeed that Solange! I love this track and I call it LO-FI SOUL! Enjoy.</div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">For a period in the late 80's there was a production team who had the midas touch, everything they did turned to gold or platinum (in record sales that is) and they seemed unstoppable. I am of course talking about<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><b>Stock Aitken Waterman</b><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>lead by<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><b>Pete Waterman</b>. </span><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 11pt;">I was 12 years old when they scored their first Number 1 with Dead or Alive's<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>YOU SPIN ME RIGHT ROUND (LIKE A RECORD)<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>early in 1985. They were still going strong by the end of the decade. I loved alot of the songs and artists they produced. Back then, I was their prime market - a teenager with a penchant for pop music and 1984 was the year I discovered POP. They managed to score<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>13 Number 1's<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>in the <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">UK</st1:place></st1:country-region> charts.

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 11pt;">The other day while looking for footage of their Christmas Cracker Concert on utubes, I came across this fab documentary about SAW (aka Hit Factory). If you have a spare 40 minutes its well worth watching, if only to see Pete Burns face. </span></div>

This is my fave Kylie song and as she was the Queen of the Hit Factory then this has to be top of the list.

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">OK so i know this is isn't the biggest hit but this is like HIGH NRG on speed or something. Its a great pop track and probably the last AMAZING single made by Pete Burns. I love the scene in the video as he slowly enters the bath. Its priceless. Here's a rather nice photo of Pete from the SAW concert. Its amazing how good you can look with a Veil on. The Power of the Veil indeed.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 11pt;">Everytime I listen to this song it reminds me of 1985 so clearly and how can you not like Princess?

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This has to be up there with the all time best collaborations with SAW. I was so surprised when Donna Summer queen of disco teamed up with SAW. You just think, why does she need them? I am glad she did though as this is a gem of song. Donna passed away last year and I have been going through a phase of buying her old LP's. She was such a talent and had such a strong voice. This was like her 4th incarnation as a popstar! Donna Darling may you R.I.P. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.176072615843163.36690.176067719176986&type=3" target="_blank">I quite like this collector's collection of Donna 7inches</a>!

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I've saved the best for last. I loved these girls. It's so sad how Mel passed away from Cancer and that their career was cut short. I love this short clip from TV AM (how awful is Anne Diamond) - they were just lovely east end girls wanting to have a good time. <b>Thats the Way It Is</b> was the 4th single from <b>Fun Love Money (FLM)</b> (their only album) and the girls don't even appear in the video. I have fond memories from when this was released and thinking what a lovely track it was. </span>

I know she's gone off and had sprogs but its a little bit sad! LILY WHERE ARE YOU!!!! Anyways LDN has been a favourite of mine just because she rhymes Tesco (UK supermarket) with Alfresco! I also love the intro to the video:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq"><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 17px;"><i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">"Have you got any punky electronica .. kind of grime .... kind of like ... new-wave grime ... but kind of maybe like more broken beats, but kinda dubby broken beats ... but a lil bit kind of soulful .... but kind of drum'n'bassy, but kinda more broken drum'n'bass like more broken beats. but break beat kind of broken drum'n'bass?"</span></i></span></blockquote><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wmYT79tPvLg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br />

I've got a very BIG soft spot for <b>Belinda Carlisle</b>. I loved her in the Go-Go's, I loved her solo career and I just love whatever she does. I recently came across a link on Twitter about the Go-Go's covering that God awful Carly Rae Jepsen song - <b>CALL ME MAYBE</b>. I wondered over to utubes and listened to it and now I love that song. When Carly Rae sings it, its kinda boppy and sacharin sweet annoying. The Go-Go's cover has rocking guitars and of course BELINDA! The song was performed on the US Go-Go's tour which took place last year. I wonder if they'll record it? FYI - It was one of <a href="http://www.rollingstone.com/music/pictures/best-covers-of-2012-20121207/the-go-gos-call-me-maybe-0405596" target="_blank">Rolling Stone Magazine's favourite cover versions of 2012</a>.

Here are my top <b>10 Songs from 2012</b>. Read em and weep. A cross section of artists and style of music which is just how I like it. I can't put these songs in order but if I had to choose my favourite song it would be between Bat for Lashes and Lanas!<br />
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: red;">LAURA</span></b> - <a href="http://www.batforlashes.com/" target="_blank">Bat for Lashes</a></h4>
I fell in love with this song after the first play. Its a very simple ballad but it just gets to the heart of me. I have never been a huge fan of Natasha Khan but this song is amazing and takes me to another place.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<h4 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue;"><b>NATIONAL ANTHEM</b></span> - <a href="http://www.lanadelrey.com/" target="_blank">Lana del Rey </a></h4>
Lana del Rey has been one of my favourite acts this year. I probably played her album more than any other this year. I love the opening lyrics to this song - "<i>I'm your national anthem, God you're so handsome, take me to the Hamptons, Bugatti Veyron</i>". Pure brilliance.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: orange;">THE WORLD IS OURS</span></b> - <a href="http://catcallmusic.com/" target="_blank">Catcall</a> </h4>
The Best Australian pop song of 2012! I adore Catcall. Catherine Kelleher is amazing and it is obscene that this song has only been viewed 54,000 times on utubes. This woman should be HUGE!!!!!
<br />

<h4 style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: magenta;">TWO WAY STREET</span></b> - <a href="http://www.kimbramusic.com/frontpage" target="_blank">Kimbra </a></h4>
I fell in love with Kimbra in the first part of 2012. I saw her live at the Enmore Theatre and this was my favourite song from her longplayer.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<h4 style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: #a64d79;">TITANIUM</span></b> - <a href="http://siamusic.net/" target="_blank">Sia </a> </h4>
So I just LOVE LOVE LOVE this song sung by Australian (from my hometown of Adelaide) Sia. The song is by David Guetta but lets be honest the vocal by Sia is KILLER! The song i most heard everytime i walked into a shop in 2012!
<br />

<h4 style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: lime;">STARSHIPS</span></b> - <a href="http://mypinkfriday.com/" target="_blank">Nicki Minaj</a> </h4>
This song reminds me of my EuroHoliday and i heard this a number of times while I was overseas.
<br />

<h4 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #999999;"><b>MY MAN</b> </span>- <a href="http://www.ohmercy.com.au/" target="_blank">Oh Mercy</a> </h4>
I was disappointed by the album Deep Heat but it did contain this gem of a song which i played on repeat.
<br />

<h4 style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: #cc0000;">TIMEBOMB</span></b> - <a href="http://www.kylie.com/" target="_blank">Kylie Minogue</a> </h4>
2012 has been Kylie's year as she celebrated K25. Timebomb was released in the middle of the year and is a fabulous dance track. I managed to see Kylie this year on her Anti Tour and you can read about that <a href="http://vinylluver.blogspot.com.au/2012/03/kylies-anti-tour-in-sydney.html" target="_blank">here</a> as well as my <a href="http://vinylluver.blogspot.com.au/2012/02/k25.html" target="_blank">Kylie K25</a> post.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #bf9000;"><b>HANDS </b></span>- <a href="http://www.alpineband.com/Alpine/Hello.html" target="_blank">Alpine</a> </h4>
OK so this technically is a 2011 track but i fell in love with this band this year and they also released their longplayer. Their dreamy vocals and European sound really make me smile.

<span style="color: orange;"><b>LEAVING</b></span> - <a href="http://www.petshopboys.co.uk/" target="_blank">Pet Shop Boys</a></h4>
The Pets have been going for something like 27 years and they released their Elysium album this year. This was a standout track on Elysium (their 11th studio album) and as a proud Pet Shop Boys Fan Club member I just love Neil and Chris.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I saw the delightful <a href="http://catcallmusic.com/" target="_blank">Catcall</a> on Saturday night at Sydney hipster hotspot the GoodGod club. Catcall was promoting the vinyl release of her debut album - <b>The Warmest Place</b>. The album has been one of 2012's best albums for me, full of understated pop-tastic tunes. I don't really understand why the album has not been more successful. What is wrong with the Australian record-buying public?? Catcall played most of the album on Saturday night in a 45 minute set and the highlights for me were <i>The World is Ours </i>and<i> Satellites.</i></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
She mashed up <i>Scrubs</i> by TLC with one of the tracks which was totes cool (sorry I can't remember which one). There was a great vibe in the Danceteria as everyone bopped away to the tunes (lets just forget about those slight issues with the sound - shall we). I bought a copy being the vinyl addict that I am. Catcall has personally signed each album, bless her cotton socks. She now has an online store selling copies of the album on vinyl plus other limited edition merch. Check it out <a href="http://catcallmusic.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And for something different but samesame- Catcall appeared on Triple J's<b> Like a Version</b> back in July and sang Phoenix's <i>1901</i>. See it below my fellow music luvers!</div>

I have just ordered my copy direct from downtown Lander, Wyoming. I am very excited and can't wait to hear these songs to get me in the festive mood. Listen to his 'Christmas Unicorn' below. And in other exciting Sufjan news - he has gone and created a tumblr page - <a href="http://sufjan.com/">sufjan.com</a><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
So its been a little bit quiet at VinylLuver HQ! I apologise in advance but I got myself a new job recently and that has been sapping my strength of late! I have also been planning my 40th Birthday Delayed Denial Holiday (ooh that was a mouthful)! Thats right luvers, this Friday and I am off to the <span style="color: blue;"><b>Europea</b></span> for a holiday! I was last there in 2009 and its been too long! I lived in London for 8 years back in the noughties so I have lots of people to see and lots of record stores to visit. Also planning to visit France, Italy and Spain to soak up some rays and see the relos! I am determined to try to buy some vinyl in all the cities I visit but I may not get there. I will def be getting to some record stores in <b>London</b>, <b>Barcelona</b>, <b>Madrid</b> and maybe <b>Naples</b>.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One person I will be catching up with is my music mate Peter Dixon in London (aka as VinylLuver London correspondent). <a href="http://jessieware.com/" target="_blank"><b>Jessie Ware's</b></a> <b>WILDEST MOMENTS</b> is his song of the summer so enjoy here it is peoples! She defs has something going on!<br />
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I unfortunately am a little less subtle with my music choices and here is probably my favourite <b>HOLIDAY</b> song even though relations between me and this artist are rather strained at the moment as the silly tart won't tour down under! Anyhoo I don't really care as I'll be going on holiday! See you in 4 weeks with hopefully a tan and a whole bunch of records!</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://www.batforlashes.com/" target="_blank"><b>Bat for Lashes</b></a> is BACK with the defining song of her career as she gets ready to release her 3rd longplayer <i><span style="color: red;">The Haunted Man</span></i> in October. The 1st single off the album is <b>LAURA</b> and it is a stomper of a ballad. The song's brilliance is in its simplicity. Natasha's voice and lyrics take this 4 minute masterpiece to another level of pop fantabulousness. This song is already in my top 5 of the year. FACT! </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
One of my NEW favourite Australian bands - <a href="http://alpineband.com/Alpine/Hello.html" target="_blank"><b>ALPINE</b></a> has unleashed the video for <b><span style="font-size: large;">GASOLINE</span>. </b>Check it out below. This single is being released in the leadup to the release of their debut LP <i><b><span style="font-size: large;">A is for Alpine</span></b></i> on <b><span style="color: lime;">10 August 2012</span></b> (mark the date in your diaries peoples). I have done a few posts about this fabulous band and I totally adore the sublime voices of lead singers Phoebe and Lou. Their sound is totally orgasmic euro-inspired POP. The band are touring in August and September so be sure to check them out. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/alpineband/app_308540029359" target="_blank">Tour Dates here</a>.</div>

Vinylluver is off to see Pop Goddess <a href="http://catcallmusic.com/" target="_blank"><b>CATCALL</b></a> at the Beach Road Hotel tonight at Bondi Beach. I can't wait. Its freezing in Sydney at the moment so I think a burst of vibrant fabulous POP is just what is required on a Wednesday night. The Fabergettes are supporting and I am equally keen to see them. In the meantime here is one of her fab tunes <b>SATELLITES</b> from her debut LP - The Warmest Place.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
So the <a href="http://www.lanadelrey.com/" target="_blank"><b>Lana Del Rey</b></a> album <b>Born to Die</b> is one of my favourites of 2012. I know she can't cut it live but I like the gal what can I say. It sure beats MDNA hands down for me. She has just unleashed the video for <b>NATIONAL ANTHEM</b> which is one of my faves from the album. She looks like Priscilla Presley (rather than Jackie O) in the video sponsored by Instagram featuring an inter-racial romance. Lets be honest though, its no Like a Prayer in the controversy stakes! </div>
