Flatline – Mutya Keisha Siobhan
Mutya Keisha Siobhan will always be known to their fans as the original Sugababes. Since they announced the news of their comeback to pop music in July of last year it has been great following the development of their reunion and recording new material together again as a pop group. Their new single Flatline is a return to their own brand of pop that made them stand out in 2000 when they first released their debut single Overload. It is great to see that it was Siobhan who first sang the opening lyrics on Overload and now she does the same for Flatline.
Flatline will be released on September 15th in the U.K. and can be pre-ordered on ITunes here.

100 ’80’s Songs: #10: Oh Yeah (On the Radio) – Roxy Music
Regular readers to my blog will know that I grew up beside a radio station that my father Michael co-founded. Oh Yeah was a real late night song on K.C.R. and I will always associate it with my father’s great achievement. All those songs were the background to my own childhood and teenage years and it is because of those radio days in the 1970’s and 1980’s that music will always mean so much to me.

100 ’80’s Songs: #8: Slow Train to Dawn – The The
However! the one band that I liked just as equally as David and Mark did was The The and especially their 1986 album Infected. The first three singles from that album are still some of my all time favourite songs; Heartland, Infected and Slow Train to Dawn. They are for me an example of music and lyrics being like stage drama, they just hit you they were so dynamic and alive.
