'Mad World' by Tears for Fears

Album: The Hurting
Released: 1983
Theme: quintessential 80's

Shame on me for not featuring this band on SoDA until now. I saw Tears for Fears recently at Chastain in Atlanta and they were wonderful.

They played this song twice during the show; the first time was a slower version which was their opening number. Funny because it's my favorite by the band. When I hear, I feel like I live in another world and another time.

'Pearl's Girl' by Underworld

Album: Second Toughest in the Infants
Released: Doesn't Matter
Theme: club

Captivating. This live show, psychopated, calls out to me and is me. I watch and my skin tingles and my body gets warm like I'm having some sort of a visual orgasm. Can't get enough . . .

'Juanita-Kiteless' by Underworld

Album: Second Toughest in the Infants

Released: Timeless
Theme: club

Captivating. This beat, syncopated, calls out to me and is me.

'Galvanize' by Chemical Brothers

Album: Brotherhood

Released: 1983
Theme: club

A group from England with a musical background much like my own. That automatically makes these guys cool.

This tune is surreal. Let's go to a rave, party all night, then hit the beach, sleep, and then do it all over again. Who wants in?
