Today’s music is New Year’s Day by Irish rockers U2, released 35 years ago this month:
And here’s a new video of a 2015 song by Vancouver’s Bryan Adams, dressed as Elvis (along with his other bandmates). It was filmed in Madrid, Spain. Bryan lives in London now but returns to Vancouver to visit his Warehouse Studio, which is a block east of our Gastown store:
This is a new song by Bryan, Please Stay, with Planet Head people:
And here’s a new song by another Canadian, Vancouver music producer and DJ Taelor Deitcher, best known by his stage name Felix Cartal, who used to live in Gastown. The tune is an EDM version of the 1998 New Radicals hit, You Get What You Give:
The dance version leaves out this lyric that trash-talked several popular bands in 1998: “Fashion shoots with Beck and Hanson/Courtney Love and Marilyn Manson/You’re all fakes, run to your mansions/Come around, we’ll kick your asses!” Marilyn Mason expressed his anger over the lyric. Gregg Alexander, the lead singer-songwriter for the New Radicals, broke up the band at the peak of their success in 1999. He went on to write songs for other artists, including co-writing Santana’s hit The Game of Love, for which he won a Grammy award in 2003 (his pseudonym at the time was Alex Ander). Listen to Gregg Alexander’s demo of the song here. More recently, Alexander co-wrote Lost Stars for the film Begin Again, starring Maroon 5’s Adam Levine and Keira Knightley; the song was in the running for an Oscar in 2015. (Gregg’s live acoustic versions of the song are here and here.) After the movie was released in 2013, Alexander broke his silence and did his first interview in 15 years.
