📀 22 July 1982 — #DexysMidnightRunners release Too-Rye-Ay, featuring the global smash #ComeOnEileen.

A one-hit wonder in the U.S., maybe — but not in the UK. #Geno hit #1 before Eileen ever danced in denim.

YouTube video by Gary Numan - Topic Are 'Friends' Electric?

🗓 1979 // ON THIS DAY

TUBEWAY ARMY’s ‘Replicas’ hits No.1 in the UK-
and post-punk’s first synth-led anthem is born.

Gary Numan’s voice = machine dread + ghost soul.
💡 ‘Are “Friends” Electric?’ rewired everything.

Cheers for the reposts @djevildave.bsky.social and @maerchen1313.bsky.social. I truly appreciate them.

Don't be afraid to stand in the shadow of love
The hour is late and you know that time waits for no-one
See the glow of the soul in her face
Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love
… the shadow of love

Cheers, for your rocking support @songlaballstars.bsky.social.

Cheers, for the like and repost @maerchen1313.bsky.social. I truly appreciate your rocking support.

I totally appreciate the support @ollypunk.bsky.social, cheers.

🕯️ 40 years ago today, The Damned unveiled Phantasmagoria — trading punk for cathedral shadows and gothic splendour.
From "Grimly Fiendish", "Is It A Dream?", to "The Shadow of Love", it was velvet noir — theatrical, haunting, iconic.

Too right, mate. You’re absolutely speaking the truth here — the music world would’ve felt different with him still around. Cheers for putting it into words.

One can only wonder what the musical world would have been if he was still around.
