20 Go Go greats


Guest

Recommended Posts

Everytime people go on holiday, whether it be to Greece, Spain etc, there are always tunes that remind them of it. I thought it might be an idea to compile a list of 20 records from the Go Go bars that remind us of Thailand. You know the ones that when your back home and you hear them a chill runs down your spine.

 

Here are my top 5:

 

 

 

1. Hotel California - Eagles

 

2. Brown eyed girl - Van Morisson

 

3. Honey what you do for money - AC/DC

 

4. Its my life - Bon Jovi

 

5. Butterfly - Don't know who its by

 

 

 

Perhaps we could have a vote and maybe ring EMI.

 

 

 

Time to add your selections,

 

 

 

Thanks,

"i forget the artist: Cruel Summer"

 

 

 

The artist for that song is Bananarama. The song was used in the original Karate Kid movie but did not appear on the soundtrack.

 

 

 

"Butterfly - Don't know who its by"

 

 

 

Don't know if you are referring to CrazyTown's Butterfly or not. The hook goes:

 

 

 

Come my lady

 

Come, come my lady

 

You're my butterfly

 

Sugar baby

 

Come my lady

 

Come, come my lady

 

You're my butterfly

 

Sugar baby

 

 

 

Here is my list from Go-Gos.

 

 

 

Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood

 

Dominoo - Run Run Away

 

 

 

The rest on the list aren't from Go-Go's per se, but still remind of Thailand.

 

 

 

JJ Girl - Coco Melon (Dance Mix)

 

DJ Sat - Oh le le (Club Mix)

 

Mary Ann - Casablanca (Club Mix)

 

China Dolls - Oh Oh Oh

 

China Dolls - Wo Ai Ni

 

China Dolls - You Mei You Lai

 

M2M - The Day You Went Away (Dance Mix)

 

Fem@le - Lambada (You might also want to check out an earlier version by Kaoma. Dancando Lambada is another good one by Kaoma. The songs are in Portuguese though)

 

Wasssup! - Bad Dog

 

Is It Love - Chili Hifly

 

Objectiors feat. Marie Noel - Allon Enfants

 

Modern Talking - Brother Louie 98

 

Tarkin - Simarik (The Kiss Kiss Song)

 

 

 

For some reason I am not sure about the last two. They half remind me of Thailand and half of Mexico.

 

 

 

What really gets me now is that Neil Sedaka reminds me of Thailand. It was really interesting walking around the beer bars in Pattaya and hearing "Oh Carol" by Neil Sedaka being sung by some Thai guy with a live band. I can understand hearing some Neil Diamond, but Neil Sedaka? Was he big in Thailand back in the day?
