I need to say thanks to Mrs T as she inspired this weeks #ttt or #threetunetuesday post
On Thursday last week they had a BBQ at work. It seemed a fun affair and was held to celebrate someone's 30th anniversary of being with the company.
If I am not mistaken the company is not much older than 30 years old itself.
That got me to thinking, I remember spending 30 years with the same company would be the norm, now it seems you are lucky if you somebody with the same company for 3 years let alone 30!
@ablaze started #ttt 111 weeks ago! Go check out what it is all about on his latest post Mercury Music Award Nominees 2003 for Three Tune Tuesday - Week 111 - 10 HBI shares to be won!
So the Sumo suits and it all seemed to be the girls that were playing.
Now Mrs T does like a bit of a laugh and being American she is pretty much the only foreigner in the workplace and gets a fair amount of stick.
She is fun though and gives as good as she gets.
This guy Stevie is head of QA and a part time DJ, so of course he supplied the tunes for the day.
Being the cheeky bastard that he is, when he saw Mrs T take to the wrestling ring in the Sumo outfit ... of course there was only one song he could play 馃憞 馃憞 馃憞
They were quite the band in the 80s and I saw they reformed to play in their home Liverpool for the Eurovision contest a few weeks ago.
I think one of the best anti-war songs of all time and the video was class.
It shows the genius that is Trevor Horn at work and wiki sum it up really well!
Presenting a nihilistic, gleeful lyric expressing enthusiasm for nuclear war, it juxtaposes a relentless pounding bass line and guitar riff inspired by American funk and R&B pop with influences of Russian classical music, in an opulent arrangement produced by Trevor Horn.
War, huh! Good God y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothin'
Say it again
War, huh! Whoa, Lord
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothin'
Humans just won't learn... Even today the lyrics are totally on point...
Not to be confused by the 1983 film of the same name!
I can't have a Frankie Goes To Hollywood music post without including the infamous song of theirs...
Yes the good old public bloodsuckers BBC banned RELAX as the lyrics are about homosexual love, of course it just made the song and the band even more notorious and they lifted the ban a year later I think!
Alot of fans reckoned this was their best tune...
Note: The three YouTube videos that I have shared are not owned by me, I am simply spreading great music on Hive.
I wish that you all have a brilliant rest of your week, and until we meet again enjoy your tunes 馃幎馃幍馃幎
