Imperial Bedroom

It's Elvis' 7th but his 6th with The Attractions -- released July 2, 1982. While not as well-known as previous albums, it did earn Elvis song-writing comparisons to Cole Porter and George Gershwin. Many a critic hailed him as the finest songwriter in pop music.

Apparently, Men Without Hats dropped a new song recently called "I Love the 80s" and it's exactly as you'd expect, full of synth, and Ivan Doroschuk's voice which has not changed one bit since the 80s. song.link/y/gV6SF492hNU

...It's a lot of fun.

"The Reflex" by Duran Duran

Listen on Apple Music (music.apple.com/us/album/the-r)

Share a song that sounds like your favorite childhood memory.

I wouldn't this song sounds like my favorite childhood memory, but it's a song that brings back memories of my childhood in various ways. The Reflex by Duran Duran is a song I remember listening to a lot when I was always down at my best friends house swimming in his pool.

[Verse 1]
You've gone too far this time
But I'm dancing on the Valentine
I tell you somebody's fooling around
With my chances on the danger line

I'll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand, oh woah
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand, oh woah

[Refrain]
Oh, why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
Oh, why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it

[Chorus]
The reflex is a lonely child who's waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, isn't that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark

"Bad Medicine" by Bon Jovi

Listen on Apple Music (music.apple.com/us/album/bad-m)

What's your favorite song to listen to while doing chores?

I wouldn't say I have a favorite song to listen strictly while doing chores, but I love songs that are very upbeat and really make feel like doing things. The one that comes to mind right at first is Bad Medicine by Bon Jovi. This is a song that just gets me moving and grooving as they say. Throws me back to the long hair 80's days and makes me jam!

[Chorus]
Your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Woah-oh-oh, shake it up, just like bad medicine
There ain't no doctor that can cure my disease
(Bad medicine)

[Verse 1]
I ain't got a fever, got a permanent disease
And it'll take more than a doctor to prescribe a remedy
I got lots of money, but it isn't what I need
Gonna take more than a shot to get this poison out of me
And I got all the symptoms, count 'em, one, two, three

[Pre-Chorus]
First, you need (That's what you get for fallin' in love)
Then you bleed (You get a little, and it's never enough)
And when you're on your knees (That's what you get for fallin' in love)
Now this boy's addicted 'cause your kiss is the drug

[Chorus]
Woah-oh-oh, your love is like bad medicine
Bad medicine is what I need
Woah-oh-oh, shake it up, just like bad medicine
There ain't no doctor that can cure my disease
