Como David Bowie




Ando cambiando de personalidad, la más reciente es drkawashima en los blogs de Wordpress: Paiki, Nippix y Fanboyopolis.
Si, este es el alter ego de la temporada.

No son los Pixies

Pero el sabado pasado (una semana antes de mi cumpleaños) tocaron en mi sede alterna (Tenancingo EdoMex). Les falta acoplarse mejor y practicar. Pero me agrado su actitud y creo que lo disfrutan.

El rock y los videojuegos

Como muchos en el soundtrack de mi vida el Rock gobierna, por lo que soy el target perfecto de los juegos musicales tan de moda para los músicos frustrados. Si además vuelven a sus productos referencia de la cultura pop es inevitable no comprarlos.

¿Se puede evitar jugar un Grand Theft Auto III cuando tiene una estación de radio como Flasback 95.6 con lo siguiente?

Debbie Harry - "Rush Rush"

Elizabeth Daily - "Shake It Up"

Paul Engemann - "Push It to the Limit"

Amy Holland - "She's On Fire"

Elizabeth Daily - "I'm Hot Tonight"

Estos tracks aparecen también en Scarface de Bryan de Palma de 1983. Esta es la razón por que me declaro fan de la serie GTA. Vendría después Vice City todo un banquete ochentero con:

Emotion 98.3

Foreigner - "Waiting For A Girl Like You"

Cutting Crew - "(I Just) Died In Your Arms"

Roxy Music - "More Than This"

Toto - "Africa"

Mr. Mister - "Broken Wings"

John Waite - "Missing You"

Night Ranger - "Sister Christian"

More Than This es una de mis canciones favoritas de la historia (la kareokea Bill Murray en Lost in translation). Sister Christian aparece en Boggie nights.

Flash FM

Hall & Oates - "Out of Touch"

Wang Chung - "Dance Hall Days"

Michael Jackson - "Billie Jean"

Laura Branigan - "Self Control"

Bryan Adams - "Run to You"

Yes - "Owner of a Lonely Heart"

The Buggles - "Video Killed the Radio Star

Aneka - "Japanese Boy"

Canciones obligadas si viviste los 80 (estoy omitiendo canciones que no me gustan)

V-Rock

Twisted Sister - "I Wanna Rock"

Mötley Crüe - "Too Young to Fall in Love"

Quiet Riot - "Cum on Feel the Noize"[5]

The Cult - "She Sells Sanctuary"[2]

Ozzy Osbourne - "Bark At The Moon"

Iron Maiden - "2 Minutes to Midnight"

Loverboy - "Working for the Weekend"

Autograph - "Turn Up the Radio"

Megadeth - "Peace Sells"

Slayer - "Raining Blood

El metal no es lo mío (al final del día me parece que puede ser parodiado por grupos como: Moderatto) pero si de elegir se trata me quedo con el glam metal

Wave 103

Frankie Goes to Hollywood - "Two Tribes"

Gary Numan - "Cars"[2]

The Human League - "(Keep Feeling) Fascination"

Blondie - "Atomic"

Nena - "99 Luftballons"

ABC - "Poison Arrow"[2]

A Flock of Seagulls - "I Ran (So Far Away)"

Psychedelic Furs - "Love My Way"

Spandau Ballet - "Gold"

Thomas Dolby - "Hyperactive!"

El new wave goberno alguna vez la escena musical. Leí que I Ran es una de las rolas favoritas de Ruy Xoconostle. Garantía de Calidad.

Ritmos latinos y Afro americanos no han sido incluidos por mi ignorancia del tema.

Grand Theft Auto San Andreas.

Bounce FM

Zapp - "I Can Make You Dance"

Kool & the Gang - "Hollywood Swingin'"

Ohio Players - "Love Rollercoaster"

America - "A Horse With No Name"
