Okay guys, like last year, another attempt to "collect" a nice playlist for this year's edition.
I'll start..
Kate Bush - Wuthering Heights (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BW3gKKiTvjs)
Feel free to dump your requests here !
-
Nice topic. :D
Pointer Sisters-I'm so excited
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-LbvFckptY
Bananarama-Love in the first degree
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k95AD9vjAdo

this may sounds strange and offensive (so please don't get me wrong), but did anyone really listen to the music being played last year? honestly, i can't remember if there even WAS music ... :P
-
No there wasn't at least not in the gameroom due to a technical problem...it's on our rather short list of things to improve this year :)
If things work out I may simply bring my Seeburg. Have to say 80 singles is a rather small selection for a long day like that....
I do like to hear 80s music at the games though, loved to hear great music at Funspot and at some other arcade meetings I visited.
Pointer Sisters - I'm so excited, got that one on 7" for the Seeburg :)
Some other nice one's I recently added (the very singles I bought new as a kid):
- Musical Youth - Pass the Dutchie
- Sugarhill gang -Rapper's Delight
- June Lodge - Someone loves you honey
- Jimmy Cliff - Reggae night
- Tom Brown - Funkin' for Jamaica
-
Music is always nice, and i too have music in my gameroom...
Though, last year there was no music but only the games songs/noises, and it was actually nice to ba able to have a conversation in the gameroom, without shouting..
Not to offend anyone, i vote for no music in the gameroom... - but i was at a pleasant level (42) in the bar area.
-
There is a comfy level for Gameroom music...not too loud, not too low...
-
- June Lodge - Someone loves you honey
Love it !
(rest of your list also by the way, especially Tom Brown - Funkin' for Jamaica..)

And i agree on Muerto, its nice to have it at the bar section with the clips on the beamer.
We can ofcourse "extend" a speaker cable to the other room.. ;D
If you guys like it, i can download the youtube clips of all the music posted here to make a playlist..
Oh and before i forget it :
Chaka Khan - Aint Nobody (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6U_hRJHc3eA&feature=related)
-
- June Lodge - Someone loves you honey
Yeah I know it's sappy....but that laid back beat is just brilliant... ;D
I remember this on Dutch TV:
http://youtu.be/QCHajq5x54I
Don't think that guy is Prince Mohammed though but whatever :)
Funkin' for Jamaica still holds up great today IMHO.
And here's another vote from me:
The Crusaders & Randy Crawford - Street Life
http://youtu.be/PVkJlLBP3MM (And YEST it MUST be the album version ;D ;D ;D ;D)
-
Another great song:
Little Steven - Bitter Fruit (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qny7yFbZZS0)

Well, I think it won't be a good idea to play my favorite music, 'cause I think I will be the only one left in the arcade that day :lol:
-

Just found that one on the tube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5YJlYFnyA0&feature=related
WTF??? The coreographer of that one must haven been sooo high on whatever ... the taylor of that costumes too. I mean not that I didn't even know the band and the two songs. I think I had the wrong friends at that time. Bad influence ;) but don't worry I will not contribute to the playlist. Eurocade 2012 will be punk rock free. Just spamming around here. Sorry for OT!

-Power of Love by Huey Lewis and the News
-Built this City by Starship
-Satisfied by Richard Marx

-Satisfied by Richard Marx
Great song !
I know 100% for sure that Andre can put that 7" in his seeburg ;)
-
Yup I think I saw it somewhere in the stack ;)
I had a great "80's" moment last weekend. During the festival we went to with the drum band, there is always a party on the sunday evening where all bands from across Europe meet. This time there was a "verein" from Austria and they also had a little "combo" with trombone, upright bass, harmonica (the one you pull), trumpet and....one instrument I forgot. They "dwell" around the party hall while playing...
When they kicked off they started with ........Funky Town !! It was hilarious to hear that song in such a setting, incl. the players in lederhosen etc. ! :space ace:
-
Oh man, another one I haven't heard for AGES:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fK9hK82r-AM&feature=youtube_gdata_player
I still wonder why the rope jumping thing is called double DUTCH ? Did we invent it ?
We call it "Touwtje springen" badly translates to "Rope jumping"
-
I presume you have the 'Pacman Fever' album as well, no retro arcade could be complete without it!
-
I don't sadly...
Well not the real thing...you know, vinyl...
Quite Incidently my favorite radio station Nostalgie is doing "10 day of 80s" right during Eurocade...they even have a Pac Man sound in the ads on the radio....guess we simply have to tune into the station to have the perfect music ;);)

For late 70's, I would love to see one or two songs by the Sex Pistols, Clash, and maybe Stiff Little Fingers included.

If you have some youtube links for me then it will be in the playlist of videoclips
i use the youtubedownloader and have all music present with official clips 8)
