I hear the drums echoing tonight.

Again and again.
Over and over
For hours on end.





Make it stooooppppp!!!!


Yes I had seen that report. Hours of the Toto classic - plus covers and remixes in the adjacent rooms

Hahahahaha!!!

Toto on eternal loop 'down in Africa'

I hear the drums echoing tonight
And tomorrow night
And every bloody night from now till eternity

20 years ago The Cardigans were in the charts with My favourite game - complete with controversial video!

2017 Basement do a reasonable version

Im not a great fan of post 2000 music but Keane did a nice ballad in 2004 called Everybodys Changing. A couple of years later Lily Allan just about ruined it with her horrible sarf Landan accent!

Oi ! Nuffink rong wiv saff Lundan aksent, Lily Allen aint from near here btw, its all fakery.

Anyone think a rock cover of The Sound Of Silence will work? Yes I do - take it away Bobaflex!

Another track from Bobaflex - this time its Pink Floyd's Hey You. An excellent version

A brilliant piss take of Zager & Evans In the year 2525

Stardate January 1975. I remember it well - Pilot & January were top of the pops

A year later Arto Sotavalta does it. In Finnish. Which really doesnt do it any favours

Theres suppoosed to be a Swedish version as well - but I cant find it atm

 

[Analoguesat]

And if you thing Pilots January cover is bad try Magic in French

 

[Analoguesat]

And if Pilot's Magic being done in French is sad then it being done by Disney is positively tragic!

If anyone has heard of the TV show "Wizards of Waverley Place" its been featured on their apparently

Although as Ultravox memorably sang in the early 80's it means nothing to me........

Stardate 1977. Space are in the charts with an unusually futuristic instrumental track called Magic Fly. ts immediately covered by a group called Caravelli.

Whilst the following year a version with Finnish lyrics surfaces

You should look up Scott Bradlee's Post Modern Jukebox.

The video above looks like one they did.

Also another name that does sometimes appear with pmj is Mary Spender.

All very talented artists in my opinion.
