"Got a Hold on Me" single released 40 years ago

[HomerMcvie]

Here's a different video from the black and white GAHOM. Her mic technique is really lacking in this.

Here's a live Love Will Show Us How. Along with Keeping Secrets and The Challenge.

Never seen that one before. It was interesting.
(The green light and her shiny suit look like a Doctor Who episode.)

Hot take:
Christine might have found bigger solo fame if she had followed Billy Joel's example and done some videos and live performances standing up with a guitar like one of the boys instead of hunched over at the keys like an overworked secretary.

Or jump like Elton?



But seriously, Elton always complained the piano didn't allow him to do much on stage, that's why he came up with the jumps. I know jumps and costumes wasn't Christine style, but yes being in front captivates the audience more. I remember the Carpenters history, it was hard to convince Karen to stop being behind the drums.

And what makes it a collector's item is the fact that they moved it to The Agora. Which was a MUCH MUCH better place to see a show.

Homie, I have enough junk in my place. I am like Lindsey, less is more. I am getting rid of books, cds etc.

I hate clutter.

I've reached that stage in life, too. Less is more.

What are you going to do with all that chiffon?
Bwboy's got storage!

[HomerMcvie]

I think they can do surgery for that now.
