ventaIt's Friday! It's three o'clock! It's time to Boogie At Your Desk!
Friday afternoons need a little something. I think they need a Top Tune. Something to make you shuffle in your seat and, if possible, Boogie At Your Desk. I'll be endeavouring to fill this gap on Fridays this year.
I'm not claiming that any track provided to enable At-Desk Boogying is one of the world's best or most profound pieces of music. It will, however, be a tune which makes me smile, and which has at some stage made me surreptitiously Boogie At My Desk.
Desks are not compulsory, of course. Feel free to boogie through your office, in your bedroom, round your lab, across your classroom, on the train - wherever you find yourself on a Friday afternoon.
If you like the track, go out and buy the album it belongs to - I'll try and recommend a suitable CD to purchase for any BAYD track.
This link will expire at some point in the future.
Today you were invited to Boogie At Your Desk to:
Manuskript - No Reprise
(If you don't want to download a file with an mp3 suffix, click here to get a zipped verison.)
Well, having laid my musical credibility (if I ever had any) on the line already, I figure I might as well get some more of the embarassing stuff out the way.
Besides, it's always worth mentioning Manuskript once in a while to drag![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
secondhand_rick out into the open and give him a chance to tell me what utter pants they are.
Manuskript are not the peak of musical excellence. They are the day A-Ha discovered black nailvarnish. They are a Saturday morning apocalypse with a drum machine.
This version of No Reprise comes off The Cyprus Recordings, which I can't find a single useful reference for online (bloody two-bit goth outfits). It's a collection of remixes, oddballs and covers (it's even got their version of The Sun Always Shines On TV on it, for heaven's sake) and it's a fantastic album to have in the car for those boring stretches of motorway at 3am.
If you feel the need to go crazy and buy a Manuskript release and can't track The Cyrpus Recordings down, go for Natural High. But the versions of the songs on The Cyprus Recordings are better, and really, No Reprise just isn't as good without the comedy key change.
Have we lost our sense of irony?
Er, yes, guys, quite possibly ;)
