Bands you became temporary obsessed with
 

Did you get a crush on some bands for a period of time?

I'm a die hard fan of Fleetwood Mac, but I was obssesed with QUEEN, during the early 80s. I loved their 70s songs, the Opera-Races-News of the World era. But their 80s songs were great, too. The Miracle, The Works, and Innuendo too.

And with Pink Floyd, during the early 90s. I got all their CDs I could, falling in love with Dark Side, Wish you were here,

During my early teen years I was too disco (late 70s), so Donna Summer was my diva.

But nothing could be compared with my obsession for Fleetwood Mac. :laugh:

Well I *LOVED* The Spice Girls from 1998-2000. :p :lol:

Tina Turner, from about 1994 to about 1997.

I was also on this Eagles kick for a while....I still like 'em, but not so much now...

Ok...fine...it was like 98-99 :laugh:

Eek, I've hated them since I was a wee lad. My mother drove me positively mad with their records. :laugh:

No Doubt- until Rock Steady.....Hella Good was Hella Annoying......Hey Baby wasn't that great, either




I really haven't been obsessed with bands, other than FM.

Oh man...
 

Creed (first album only)

*ducks*

Ya dont say...
 

...Wow, never would've guessed that? :shrug: :lol:

I know Deb is stoked that KU is coming back to OKC to play in the frikkin' huge Ford Center (Basically OKC's version of Dallas' American Airlines Center...But I prefer our Ford Center since Bricktown is 1 short block away, Hell Bricktown is not even a 3 minute walk on foot.)

Btw, Never have temporary obsession for musicians...Just the ol' fashioned life long support for too many a band to name here!!!

I know..
 

Try the post...
 

on KeithUrbanfans.com on the "On The Road 2005" section, Page 2 the thread is titled "New Tour Dates Released"...

Plus Pollstar.com has the dates up too.

I'd say I went through major phases of Led Zeppelin, Duran Duran, U2, Crosby Stills and Nash, and the Who.

But as someone else said, they all paled in comparison to my love of FM. Not even close.

Spice up your life!
 

Before I discovered Stevie, I was obsessed with Tina Turner, Bonnie Tyler and Cyndi Lauper.

I still listen to all three, but my interest in them is not as rabid as it once was.

How I miss them!? I never did buy their albums, but their singles were soooooooo good. Do you have their stuff?

Oh, and of course Madonna too.

Again, I'm still a huge fan, but not as rabid of a fan as I am for Stevie/FM.

It's always a possibility, but I'll tell you this... I had the same fear, too.
I thought that with as much as I listened to FM, there HAD to come a time when I'd get my fill of them (as I had other bands) and move on. Maybe pulling out one of my FM CDs on very rare occasions.

But it never happened. :o :laugh:

Just think, the more you listen to them, the more songs you will like.

Maybe one day Desert Angel will be music to my ears. I doubt it, but it's a possibilty.

Yep!!
 

:eek: :eek: :eek:

:laugh:

I have to send you my edit of "Desert Angel" one of these evenings. I took out the "Operation Desert Shield! Operation Desert Storm!" part that has always annoyed me, and it's SO much more enjoyable now. :nod: :D

When it comes to music, I only have a few obsessions. Fleetwood Mac (and solo), Blondie/Debbie Harry, Bette Midler, David Bowie, and Franz Ferdinand. Those are my favorites and have been ever since I was a kid (save Franz Ferdinand because they just came around the block). I never get sick of listening to any of them and hearing them makes me very happy. :thumbsup:

I saw that on MTV. It was fabulous! Their stuff is definately on my "CDs to buy" list. Out Of My Heart is a fav of mine. I bought the CD single once, only to find out it was the DVD single. So, I have the music video for it. I was kinda bummed, but the video is really good. :thumbsup:

Sounds awesome. I'm always up for alternate versions. :wavey:

I have your Gypsy and WISYA mixes. What else have you made?

Of course...
 

I, too, was majorly obsessed with the Spice Girls, around 96-98 I guess; I was 9 when their first album "Spice" came out and 10 when "Spiceworld" came out (1996 and 1997, right? Did I even get the names of the albums right? Its been a long time!!!)

Were talking CD's, posters, movie in theatre 3x, movie on home video 100x, singles.....ya, pretty obsessed.

I am happy to report that I only, *ahem* listen to good music now :) *ducks from current fans of Spice Girls and their modern day counterparts*

Oh, and my favorite band in the whole world used to be the Cranberries, from about 1994 to 1999 (age 7!).I still listen to them sometimes, mainly the first three albums, which I spent like $60 on getting the box set with all the b-sides. I have 3 versions of Bury the Hatchet (regular version, "The Complete Sessions" 2-disc version, and "The Complete Sessions" 1-disc box set version) and I don't really even like that album :rolleyes:

A few others: Celine Dion, Destiny's Child....probably others I'm forgetting- I've probably blocked them from memory :)

In short, my tastes in music have changed A LOT! Except for the Cranberries, I never listnen to any of that other "music" any more. To me, the general rule is if an artist doesn't write their own songs and/or lyrics, I don't listen to them (or atleast that's the way it turns out).

:wavey: adam :wavey:

Well my first temporary obsession was with New Kids on the Block lol...

then:

Debbie Gibson
Belinda Carlisle


later when I started liking non-sucky music ;)

The Doors
Live
Space Hogs
Smashing Pumpkins
Soul Asylum
Green Day

--the above are bands I still like - but only two bands now hold the obsession in me - they are FM and The Beatles :D

Hey hey!
 

That's my absolute favorite part of the song :laugh: for real, it's the part of the song that to me ssaves the song.

I never became obsessed with whole bands, just songs.
I loved Simon and Garf when i was young, I was obsessed a bit with Jefferson Airplane, but just their songs. I basically like everything now that i liked then, but with more stuff added. I was obsessed with the song Candle in the Wind (live) during my Marilyn obsession, also Bette Davis Eyes and Celluloid Heroes...
I always really loved lots of Heart songs, CCR songs...
never really a full blown obsession, though...
Although when i heard Stand Back and Seven Wonders, i was obsessed with both those songs for a brief period...My mom says i was obsessed with GDW when i was 3, but i'm not sure if that counts...I always loved Cyndi Lauper, too. And i really liked my Bonnie Tyler tape i got when i was 8...still do.
Mostly i was always obsessed with actors and actresses instead...

Omigod, that's weird, I *love* that album extra special much!
It makes me happy, it makes me dance around, it makes my butt move... :laugh:
Just suprised, is all... :wavey:

Wham when I was about 9, for a couple of years.

Then, Bon Jovi, from 12 til 15 or so.

No real obsessions after that until Mac & Stevie, starting in 97 with The Dance. Still going strong! I really don't think that this one will fade either. :D

Same, and it's been a loooong time. :] Now I don't see that ever happening. It is a possibility but I don't see it right now.

When I was in Elementary School, I was OBSESSED with Duran Duran. Besides Fleetwood Mac, that has to be my biggest band obsession to date.

I've never really had any band obsessions as big as this one. But I was obsessed with the TV show Cheers and actress Shelley Long for about 3 years and then I had little obsessions with Cher and Blondie for a while, and then it blew into the whole HUGE FM/Stevie thing

The only other real music obsession I have started when I was eight and still goes on, it's for an Italian singer/songwriter, Francesco De Gregori. :thumbsup:
