>Here is a link and confirmation for a Level 42 (Version 1.3) concert date for Thursday, December 2, 2004 at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall: >http://www.wolvescivic.co.uk/gigs/level42.htm. Interesting reading – so Level 42 have ‘reformed’ for a one off greatest hits tour? Are my eyes working correctly – does this mean a reunion of the original line-up? Oops, no. Back on the road for the first time since 1994. Since when did the truth get in the way of plugging a ‘cover 42’ gig? Well, no news is bad news. Does anyone actually have any Level 42 news? A rarities album coming out? Any news on the RCA reissues? (maybe I’ll chase that one up). L()Z

Blender Magazine Names 50 Worst Songs
The music magazine is publishing its list of the 50 worst songs in its May issue. The songs were selected for "crap-tastic melodies," were poorly performed, or just didn't make any sense to the folks at the magazine. Starship's "We Built This City," (search) from 1985 topped the list. "The truly horrible sound of a band taking the corporate dollar while sneering at those who take the corporate dollar," the magazine said of the tune. Billy Ray Cyrus' "Achy Breaky Heart" (search) was second, followed by Wang Chung's "Everybody Have Fun Tonight." "If this song was a party, you'd lock yourself in a bathroom and cry," quipped Blender. Rounding out the top ten worst songs ever are Huey Lewis and the News with "The Heart of Rock and Roll," "Don't Worry, Be Happy," by Bobby McFerrin, Eddie Murphy's "Party All the Time," "American Life," by Madonna and "Ebony and Ivory," the duet by Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney. The post-Sept. 11 anthem "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue," by Toby Keith was Number 22. The magazine says Keith's song was "so vengeful, it makes 'The Star-Spangled Banner' sound like 'Give Peace a Chance.'" Even The Beatles made the list with "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da," which the magazine said sounded like "the desperately chirpy songs Cockneys used to sing to keep their spirits up while the Luftwaffe rained death on them during the Blitz." | ||
