The B-52s, originally presented as the B-52's (with an errant apostrophe; used until 2008), are an American new wave band formed in Athens, Georgia, in 1976.
If you see a faded sign at the side of the road that says / “15 miles to the ♫ Love Shack ♫

Weekly challenge time: Try writing a song with MORSE CODE!
Think "YYZ" (Rush) with its airport-code rhythm, or Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5 intro (code for "V").
Encode a message with rhythm (musical cryptogram anyone?) or use it as a hidden texture like "Planet Claire" (B-52s) or "Landing of the Daleks" (The Earthlings).
Bonus points for hidden messages!

This #b52s song, particularly the intro and the hook sounds like it belongs in a video game - how does it sound so #retro yet ahead of its time simultaneously?
I adore the whole oeuvre of artists talking about other artists who had a large impact on them, even moreso when it crosses genre boundaries, double secret even moreso when they're talking about #Devo and #B52s

Yet another track for Jimmy Page’s guitar resume.
"When you're alone, and life is making you lonely
You can always go

Morning, time to get the blood pumping, time for a bop.

It backfired, and badly.
My wife is off to Rome today with her family.
This song popped into my head.
AND NOW IT WON'T POP OUT AGAIN - GAH!!
