Hey! It's #fortnightFridayMusic & the cue is:
#thunder
Sometimes songs don't age badly, society does. Lyrically, they foresaw the future in this banger, probalby my favourite of theirs:
TISM - Thunderbirds Are Coming Out
Shot in one take, the video features 30 bands from the Melbourne scene in 1998 miming to this song. It's not only funny but also now a nostalgic snapshot.
Of all the bands in this video,on #TISM and the Ringwood Secondary College Choir & Orchestra are the only two you could go and see play today.
🎶 I was my parents' puppet till my teenage years
When I rebelled and swapped them for my peers
I used to sit for hours all alone
Without an opinion to call my own
I had to keep this compulsion to myself
This need to be like everybody else
But now I'm out of the closet and I feel free
'Cos I just saw Thunderbirds on TV
Sing if you're proud to be plastic now
Thunderbirds are coming out
Yes I've been outed and I'm so happy
I've found a role model just for me
I think I could be like those puppet guys
'cos there's less to them than meets the eye 🎶

The theme for this #fortnightfridaymusic is #thunder , and I really thought I had nothing for this. But then I remembered, the Sisters of Mercy had me covered, in The Temple of Love.

Gonna start with Blondie's T-Birds about the LA Thunderbirds roller derby team.

How do you make a world-wide hit? Plaguarise a children's song and add quirky lyrics about a place most people have never been:
Men At Work Down Under
"Kookaburra Sits in the Old Gum Tree" never sounded better:
🎶 Traveling in a fried-out Kombi
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie
I met a strange lady, she made me nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast
And she said
"Do you come from a land down under
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover"
Buyin' bread from a man in Brussels
He was six-foot-four and full of muscle
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich
And he said
"I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover", yeah
Lyin' in a den in Bombay
With a slack jaw, and not much to say
I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me?
Because I come from the land of plenty" 🎶

Cauldron. Charcoal on paper.

Macbeth Act 4 Scene 1.
A cavern. In the middle, a boiling cauldron.
Thunder. Enter the three Witches.
