April 25, 2008 Earworm



Voice of The Beehive were Tracey Bryn and Melissa Brooke Belland, daughters of The Four Preps singer Bruce Belland, backed by Mark Bedford and Daniel Woodgate of Madness and Martin Brett on bass. They gave the world the somewhat danceable commentary on sexual politics with "The Beat of Love" back in '88 and I'm still laughing twenty years later.

You just have to listen to hear why because I really have nothing more to say. Or watch their live performance on "The Tube":

April 24, 2008 Earworm


It was released in 1965.
Written by Donovan.
Arranged and conducted by Jack Nitzsche.
As Dot Records single 16780, it was most likely leased as that label had few contract artists - an assumption that the notation of the copyright belonging to Jack Nitzsche's estate seems to confirm.
The very rare "You've Just Got To Know My Mind" by Karen Verros begs the question, how can we know her mind when we have no idea who she is.
And why do I immediately think "Voice Of The Beehive" everytime I hear this girly freakbeat thing?
