'The Message'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
I didn't get into "Love Will Tear Us Apart" really until I saw the video.
I got into it when I was... chemically altered. One of those "stay up all night talking and listening to music" deals. I was earwormed with that song for days, in a good way.
My love for Bauhaus started in a similar way. Except there was also dancing. In an empty room with a boombox.
I like The Vulgar Boatmen's "Drive Somewhere." Any recs for good albums by them?

I miss those nights. You'd end up with albums all over the floor and nothing in its sleeve, but you'd go through everything just to play one song, or a part of one song. Good times.

I really do wish that Ian Curtis' voice didn't make me grit my teeth. I have huge respect for Joy Division and their place in the Great Goth Pantheon. Just don't make me listen to them.
Oh, did I tell you guys that I won the LE pink vinyl pressing of Bela Lugosi's Dead? It should be arriving at my house next week.

I think so--or maybe it was on Facebook.
Anyway, you should post a photo of you posing with it.

Oh, there will be many photos taken and posted as soon as it arrives. Mine!
IT ARRIVED TODAY! Pete just texted me, and he opened the package to make sure it was okay. ("A bloody miracle it was, because that was a shit packing job" quoth the loomy one.)
I kind of want to run home and hug it gently.
So glad you finally got a copy of that, Jilli!

I'm currently in Canada where I scored a Pointed Sticks CD reissue in the 3-for-$10 bin!
What was the question again? Oh yeah, Kitchens of Distinction. I have no strong feelings about them either way. I've never played 'em on the radio, for what that's worth.
Things you realize, listening to the radio while not fully awake on a Friday morning:
"Satisfaction" has a cha-cha beat. (drum-drum-tambourine-tambourine-tambourine)
