#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Scritti Politti | Cupid & Psyche 85 10>1 1️⃣ Absolute buff.ly/jCSsO00 The dreamy intro leading into the funky bass line... 👌 You can absolutely tell Green loved him some R&B, which Scritti explored more in future albums and collabs.

#IsmuasMonthOfMusic 🎼 #MusicChallenge 🎶 Day 29: A song with layered vocal melodies Orinoco Flow | Enya

#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Scritti Politti | Cupid & Psyche 85 10>1 2️⃣ Perfect Way buff.ly/S6dzS0l A "surprise" #11 hit in the States, PW was my entry point to Scritti. I fell in love with the track and then every other track on C&P85 💙

#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Scritti Politti | Cupid & Psyche 85 10>1 3️⃣ Lover to Fall buff.ly/3swuGF6 Unabashedly pop with a soaring chorus, LTF could be my #1 pick, as with any of the Top 5. 🎶 Heard you're the heroine of virtue Oh, I heard it baby it's true (yeah )🎶

#IsmuasMonthOfMusic 🎼 #MusicChallenge 🎶 Day 2️⃣ 7️⃣ : A song in a minor key that feels uplifting Holiday | Madonna buff.ly/KbLR2m6

#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Scritti Politti | Cupid & Psyche 85 10>1 7️⃣ Small Talk buff.ly/1keOpnb 🎶 I heard a whisper That careless talk costs more than you bargained for In seventh heaven if a thing's worth doing it's worth doing badly Small talk🎶

#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Scritti Politti | Cupid & Psyche 85 10>1 8️⃣ Don't Work That Hard buff.ly/ZxlDvzh A funktastic album track that sounds like Chic or the Jackson 5 were featuring on it!

#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Scritti Politti | Cupid & Psyche 85 10>1 9️⃣ A Little Knowledge buff.ly/FjLxeor 🎶 There'll be a day, lovers away (You can) call me and mend a broken heart There'll be a time long after mine (He will) call you and mend a broken heart 🎶

#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Scritti Politti | Cupid & Psyche 85 🔟 Flesh & Blood buff.ly/cpL0Ltx B-side to "The Word Girl" with a reggae flavor and chanter Ranking Ann taking lead vocals. This one's special, as Green didn't really create b-sides for the singles (other than remixes).

Countdown to #ArtistFaveLP Cupid & Psyche 85 Quick clip from Green introducing the C&P85 tour back in ‘21 buff.ly/dmMhjco I probably should have hopped on a plane then; I have major regrets! 🥲 🫠 Tomorrow (3/19), #ArtistFaveLP begins after 5pm EDT!

Countdown to #ArtistFaveLP Cupid & Psyche 85 Not only has Miles Davis covered Scritti Politti’s songs, but Madness has also. Granted, this one’s not from C&P85, but it’s a well-known SP tune! “The ‘Sweetest Girl’” buff.ly/LhCAw8X

Countdown to #ArtistFaveLP Scritti Politti | Cupid & Psyche 85 C&P 85 is Scritti's breakout album. It peaked at #5 & placed 3 singles in the UK Top 20. Frontman Green Gartside was a huge fan of Miles Davis, & Miles was also a fan of Green and covered "Perfect Way" in 1986. buff.ly/51d0C0Q

Thanks to all who participated in the March #ArtistFave15! Special thanks to all who liked/replied to my Alison Moyet picks! It was a blast showcasing them! Next up, #ArtistFaveLP begins 3/20. Look for deets soon! Next month, #ArtistFave15 will be back! Stay tuned! 🤩 🎶 🙌

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 1️⃣ Love Resurrection (1984/2024) buff.ly/Fm1hAaB 🎶 WE ALL NEED...! 🎶 Had to be my #1! Alison remixed for Key and sang it last year on tour. Check out the vid for the Key version - I think I prefer it to the original!

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 2️⃣ Nobody's Diary (1983) buff.ly/JcWjcr5 Yazoo's first/only single from You and Me Both, written by Alison. It never gets old! Peaked at #3 in the UK & #1 on the US Dance chart

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 3️⃣ My Best Day (1994/2024) buff.ly/DKy2tOu Included on the 2016 reissue of Essex, MBD was originally a duet with Ian Brodie of the Lightning Seeds. Remixed for Key, the synth & cowbell were turned up to 11! The crescendo is sublime!👌 💙

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 4️⃣ Weak in the Presence of Beauty (1987) buff.ly/x1Q533o I still love this one, even if Alison doesn’t sing it anymore. It appears on Raindancing and was originally sung by Floy Joy. Alison’s version peaked at #6 on the UK charts.

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 5️⃣ Ode to Boy (1983/1993) buff.ly/0f8Dy9u Originally on Yazoo’s You and Me Both, this Alison-penned track was injected with a bit of soul and acoustic guitar for Essex & her Singles album.

I would so love to go! So jealous of my Brit and Euro peeps! @alisonmoyet Bring this tour to America!🙌 👍 #ArtistFave15

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 6️⃣ A Guy Like You (Remix) (2007) buff.ly/MWbUGUx "Over the years people have tried to push me in certain directions, to be poptastic, which I have resisted. So 'A Guy Like You' is a bit of self-indulgence, to show people that yes, I can write pop."

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 7️⃣ Is This Love (1986/2024) buff.ly/mrMRlv0 Done in a "Twin Peaks" style (per Alison herself), the Key version really does transform the classic & takes it to a new level of awesome. I can see Alison performing it at the Roadhouse in an alt TV world.

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 8️⃣ Hoodoo (1991) buff.ly/VKuaKR4 I was in college when Hoodoo was released & I recall it sounding very alt & edgy even then. It fit very well with the college radio format. Love the album cover shot also.

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 9️⃣ All Cried Out (1984/2024) buff.ly/5XnDQ4L A gem from her debut solo LP Alf, Alison and team remixed/remodeled it for her current sound on Key. ACO was originally produced by Jolley & Swain and peaked at #8 on the UK charts.

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 🔟 Footsteps (1991) buff.ly/Z4oniCT I’ve always loved this brassy, soulful, angsty album track from Hoodoo, & I was so glad Alison performed it on tour also!

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 1️⃣ 2️⃣ More (2002/2024) buff.ly/80GhluK The theme music for the excellent 40 Moyet Moments podcast & originally on Hometime, More was another song funktified & synthesized-up for Key.

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 1️⃣ 2️⃣ Filigree (2013/2024) buff.ly/mLw23nU Another classic reimagined for Key, Alison goes to the cinema with zero expectations, and it became a MOMENT. We all could indeed slow down and wait on those moments.

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 1️⃣ 3️⃣ This House (1991/2024) buff.ly/AR2JL28 From Hoodoo, This House packs such a wallop! The Key revamp removes the soft guitars and punches up the bass to bring it more in line with Alison’s preferred electronic sound.

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge Alison Moyet 15>1 1️⃣ 4️⃣ So Am I (1994/2024) buff.ly/iPp6p3R Originally on Alf's Essex LP, it was reimagined for Key, her 40th anniversary celebratory LP. I was lucky enough to see Alison in Nashville last year. She still got it & sounds amazing live!

#ArtistFave15 #MusicChallenge #AlisonMoyet 15>1 1️⃣ 5️⃣ Good Times (1983) buff.ly/661C3Q1 This time with the correctly spelled #hastag!😂🫠 This Alison-penned track appears on the oft-overlooked 2nd Yazoo album, You and Me Both

#AritstFave15 #MusicChallenge #AlisonMoyet 15>1 1️⃣ 5️⃣ Good Times (1983) buff.ly/661C3Q1 This Alison-penned track appears on the oft-overlooked 2nd Yazoo album, You and Me Both

#ArtistFave10s #MusicChallenge OMD 10>1 1️⃣ Sister Marie Says buff.ly/YTHkCxT With soaring operatic & synth flourishes, this shouted classic mid-80s OMD to me at first listen. SMS could easily fit on Junk Culture or Crush, imho.

#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Yazoo's Upstairs at Eric's 10>1 1️⃣ Situation www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysmV... A staple on Friday night radio dance parties & included on the US edition, Situation quickly became my fave song. It's the b-side to Only You.
