Big Audio Dynamite to reform

Mick Jones, co-founder of Big Audio (with Don Letts) in 1985, has told the BBC that the band is reforming. They will be touring the UK in March and USA in April which is exiting news for B.A.D fans, and to a degree Clash fans too.

Even though the band itself did not stop in 1988, the original line up certainly did. But for the tour, Jones returns with co-songwriter and sample master Don Letts, drummer Greg Roberts, bassist Leo Williams, and keyboardist Dan Donovan.

Big Audio Dynamite lasted for five years and released four albums. Their biggest hit was the number one ‘Rush’ in 1991. While there is no talk of a new album yet, it is still early days and one can only hope.

The band have announced the following tour dates:

Tue 29 March O2 Academy, Liverpool
Wed 30 March O2 ABC, Glasgow
Thu 31 March O2 Academy, Newcastle upon Tyne
Sat 02 April O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, London
Sun 03 April O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, London
Wed 06 April Rock City, Nottingham
Thu 07 April O2 Academy, Leeds
Fri 08 April Manchester Academy (University), Manchester
Sat 09 April O2 Academy, Bristol
Sat 16 April The Coachella Festival, USA

Robert Palmer Addicted to Love lyrics

Songwriter: Robert Palmer

Your lights are on, but you’re not home
Your mind is not your own
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes

You can’t sleep, you can’t eat
There’s no doubt, you’re in deep
Your throat is tight, you can’t breathe
Another kiss is all you need

Whoa, you like to think that you’re immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It’s closer to the truth to say you can’t get enough
You know you’re gonna have to face it, you’re addicted to love

You see the signs, but you can’t read
You’re runnin’ at, a different speed
You heart beats, in double time
Another kiss, and you’ll be mine a one track mind

You can’t be saved
Oblivion is all you crave
If there’s some left for you
You don’t mind if you do

Whoa, you like to think that you’re immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It’s closer to the truth to say you can’t get enough
You know you’re gonna have to face it, you’re addicted to love

Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
You’re addicted to love,you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, might as well face it
Might as well face it, might as well face it
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love

Your lights are on, but you’re not home
Your will is not your own
You’re heart sweats and teeth grind
Another kiss and you’ll be mine

Whoa, you like to think that you’re immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It’s closer to the truth to say you can’t get enough
You know you’re gonna have to face it, you’re addicted to love

Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, might as well face it
Might as well face it
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love
Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love

Models frontman James Freud dies

Australia’s music industry is in mourning following the death of the Models frontman James Freud today.

Freud, who was 51, took his own life following a long struggle with drug and alochol addiction. It’s ironic that only one week ago the Melbourne born band was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame – Freud did not attend however.

The Models hits included the 1985 No. 1 Out of Mind, Out of Sight with Freud on lead vocals, as well as I Hear Motion, Big on Love and Evolution.

1985 also saw the release of Barbados (my favourite) which topped number 2. It was this song that gave Freud the title of his book I Am the Voice Left From Drinking.

RIP
