thanks you so much next step please siouxsie and the banshees peek a boo remixes + b side thanks again for all.
I like it!
She’s on my list of things to explore (that I missed in my yoof).
I’ve heard of her but that’s about it.
Thanks, Paul.
You’re welcome Richard. Danielle some great stuff to explore 🙂
An astonishing talent. No one I knew seemed to regard her the way I did. Comatose non-reaction indeed! She deserved better. Your posts this week have all been right up my street Paul. Thanks and keep ’em coming!
I am so happy you are enjoying this weeks posts mothloop this is the music I prefer to post 🙂
Glad to see you share some quality Danielle Dax! While this song charted well in the UK, in the states we got treated to Cat House, a fabulously danceable track. I like how Danielle’s got Nina Nagen-like screams and Strawberry Switchblade sounds with Kate Bush’s flair for the dramatic (watch Danielle’s videos!). Always wanted to meet this dramatic-looking lady to see what made her tick. Thanks for the awesome share and memory, Paul!
dugn,
Love your enthusiasm for Danielle Dax and your varied musical tastes
I am a huge fan of “Cat House” and used to make mix tapes with this song followed by “Sex On Wheels” by My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult. Oh, what memories.
Have a nice day Dugan
