Artist: Katrina and the Waves
Album: Katrina and the Waves
Video: From DailyMotion.
The only hit song for Katrina and The Waves, it is still popular today. I'm confused by the plot of this video. First she's in the projects, then there are these men in trenchcoats (who start following her), then they're all feeding the ducks in the park, then they're going to the recording studio and, oh, wait, these guys are the band! I think. Maybe not, I'm still confused.
I don't care what anyone says though, I like this song! It's positive, upbeat, and so dang peppy. With a title like "Walking on Sunshine", you get what you would expect - energy and light-heartedness.
Although this was their only hit, Katrina and the Waves actually recorded until 1999.
Also, Happy Birthday to Lou Gramm, lead singer of Foreigner in the 80's! He is 62 years old today. And he's still Cold As Ice.
This wasn't exactly their only hit. Two Top 40 hits followed: "Do You Want Crying" later in 1985 and "That's the Way" in 1989.
ReplyDeleteThe latter video can be viewed at my 80s Music Mayhem blog at the following address (and the other one will be there in a couple weeks):
