Cheers mate. Garner to FC Andorra.

I’m cheating since my internet was down last night and I missed a day. Similar to Tears for Fears , Hall & Oates have their fair share of good tracks. Indeed, they are the most successful duet in history with regards to #1s or something like that. Much to my surprise, even surpassing second place favorites of mine The Everly Brothers. And while I didn’t really like them back in the day, I like plenty of their tracks now and appreciate their legacy. This one is a big more 80s and somewhat different than their sound if you ask me. Great track though.

Tears for Fears straddle that line of 80s band and band I like. Both are and can be true at the same time, but I guess what I’m trying to say is they had more songs that I liked than just one or two which applies more to other 80s artists I’ll post.

Not their biggest hit perhaps, but still a memorable single. Watching the video, hearing the track and thinking of how big they felt back in the day is sort of at odds with the small studio they recorded at. We drove by it in England back in the day as the coach driver pointed it out and it was in the middle of nowhere.

I declare this Big 80s Week. For me “big 80s” has a certain connotation, but let’s just open it up to 1980s anything. Having grown up in the 80s I was there for all of it and still like a lot of 80s musics. And since it’s Big 80s I’ll go with Big Country. For some reason I always thought they were from Australia, but apparently they’re Scots. Anyway, a classic 80s track.

As I noted in the first page of this thread, big fan of The Doors. They have a helluva catalog for only so many albums and a relatively short-lived run. Going with a bit of a deeper cut today and I have so many other tracks I like that I could post. Anyway, I remember liking this one the first time I heard it in High School. Not their best track by any stretch, but I still like it.

Funny how the intro to Curb Your Enthusiasm is so short I have post the closing credits. The opening is maybe the first 5 seconds or so of this clip. Still, it’s great because it really suits the show (for me anyway) and just hearing it before a new episode would make me laugh.

And since this clip showed up I’ll throw it in.

Love that gif James. Sorry mate, but I need the money assuming this result even earned me any. GG and thanks for simming as always Z.

WOW! Big season Evilo with two titles! Congrats mate. Your dedication has paid off. Enjoy!

I’ll go with Foyle’s War next. I quite like the series and I’m a big fan of the theme, especially at the beginning.

I’ve see the show a few times now as well and as it’s been at least 12 months since I’ve last seen it I’m do for another viewing.

For this one is one of those “cheats” to some degree as it’s a song that I asssume was already out and the show just used it. And when I think about it lyrically, it doesn’t seem to fit as it sounds like it’s setting is out West somewhere. Still for me it works. And as I noted with other themes I mentioned, this is another one where the video adds to it (at least for me if you’ve seen the show).

Great track! Great television sequence.

I’ll assume you’ve seen it, but if you haven’t I definitely recommend it. I think it’s 8 episodes and done. Series 2 I liked as well (more than most) and Series 3 is also good. Series 4 didn’t do it for me though, but I may need to revisit it.

Another one!

Nice. Love the visual art and not a bad track. I have to watch this. Completely forgot about it even though the company I work for did a collab with the show.

Ripper Street isn’t the best show ever, but it’s still pretty good. Plenty of talented actors and if you like the Jack the Ripper era you might well like it.

This one is very reminiscent of the opening theme to the Guy Ritchie film Sherlock Holmes which is another theme I really like. I like this one comes to a quick end and it’s definitely one of those themes I don’t hit “skip intro” on.
