Hey There MusicHeads! Thanks for joining me for another week of Tanya's Picks...Here's what's in rotation on my iPod this week....
Many thanks to You Tube for finding this rare track, cause I sure didn't know it beforehand...Of course, I knew their other collab, "The Girl is Mine;" cause who didn't have Thriller. This tune however, was off of Paul's 1983 album, Pipes Of Peace.
Ok yeah, don't judge me. This tune is from the incredibly baaaad movie, Two of a Kind, starring Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta. I guess Hollywood producers thought it would be a good idea to re-create movie magic by putting these two together again. Nothing could have been further from the truth....But the song is pretty cool...
Ok, did anyone else think that Peter Cox's movements all throughout this video are a bit awkward....He looks like he's fighting someone when he should be just swaying from side-to-side. It's really not that hard....I first heard this song in GTA: Vice City. This is from their eponymous 1985 album.
Rocky IV - Robert Tepper - Theres No Easy Way Out
Best.Montage.Ever.....After 4 movies (at this point), any Rocky fan had pretty much lived the last 10 years of his life with him. Everyone knows that Rocky IV had the best music, but this is one of the best scenes in the whole movie....cause if you hadn't seen the 1st three.....well, look no further...This raps it all up in about 4 mins, 25 sec.
Truly one of the more underrated artists of his time....I've always felt kinda bad for Jermaine...like he got the short end of the stick..Take this album for instance, 1991's, You Said- It was completely overshadowed by brother Michael's Dangerous album, which came out the same year. Hell, rumor has it that Mike even stole the producers (Babyface & L.A. Reid) that Jermaine was working with, so that they could work on his album instead....
Well that's all for this week. Join me back next week for more of my Tanya's Picks....And don't forget to enter into the iTunes Giveaway....it ends on 3/31/13.
Until Next Time....
