80s synthpop?

f**k yeah! I'm down. I'm actually listening to a bunch of new wave artists and yeah, this shit feels great right now. Depeche Mode, Dead or Alive, Men w/o hats, Martini Ranch, Judas Priest, Suffocate......

Psychedelic 60s would be challenging too. Or Zombie rock.

I doubt you'd go for French horn concertos.

Or Comedy.

Or 1940s big band swing.

Or famous songs never recorded by Julie Andrews.

I'm tipping synth-pop will probably get the nod.

How about Broadway musicals? So one has to write a song that would go well with a Broadway musical performance ala A chorus Line or The King and I or Zorba or The Tap Dance Kid or The phantom of the Opera or The Three Amigos or......

WAIT I GOT IT!!!!! How about write a tune made for film? So one can make up a fictional movie and write the score for it? I got dibs on Vampire Sluts in Hell.

Or how about Cartoon music? That sounds interesting.

This blonde's kitchen catches on fire so she calls the fire department and is frantic, "Oh god! Please! My kitchen is on fire! Help me"!
Fire department: "Ok lady, just relax. How do we get to your place"?

Blonde: "Well DUH! In that big red truck you guys drive"!

I went into a pizza shop and ordered a marguerita pizza. When the pizza was ready, they asked me if I'd like the pizza cut into six pieces or twelve.

I said "Six - I'm not hungry enough to eat twelve."

Great idea Shushi ! A new wave Xmas song played/dressed à la Judas Priest !

We could go back to the roots of the music we make here : Chicago blues.

Laura, do order the twelve piece pizza, 'cose I ain't so hungry either.

BTW, Laura, is there any truth in the rumour about an article in your local newspaper, telling Julie Andrews is staying in the neighbourhood, working on her voice recovery (she was operated in 1997

) and preparing a come-back ?...

Cheers,

Max... .. .

How about we have a go at that KVR favorite genre - 'frying pan'.

Or if not, how about shoegaze? There's quite a few here I think would produce some good entries.

Indeed, Shoegaze could be a good one.

Pardon my ignorance but exactly what IS shoegaze. Sounds like some pathetic wimp who hasn't got the gumption to look the girl in the eye and say 'Hey, fancy a shag?'

The Wikipedia entry explains it pretty well.
