LIAN ROSS - FANTASY

Hello and welcome back.... Loving This, from Germany comes this awesome track called 'Fantasy'.

Singer Lian Ross (Josephine Hiebel) had this Hi-NRG hit back in 1985 and was released on ZXY Records.

Lian Ross is a Pseudonym, amongst other for this artist including Tears n Joy, 2 Eivissa, Fun Factory & Negakuss.

I stumbled across this track on a Italo Disco / Hi-NRG compilation called  'Disco Fox 80', Its such a catchy track... A few listens and your hooked but its worth it, oh, and it gets better... Lian Ross is still going today with new music including a Modern Talking remake of 'Your my heart, Your my Soul'

Check it out..


LIAN ROSS - FANTASY  (1985)



LYRICS

High up in the skies much miles away
lived a very special man.
one night in my dreams I heard him say 

he'll be coming to this land.

Distant lover
king of Galaxy
welcome to my world of fantasy
come into my world of mystery
welcome home to me

I woke up into a big surprise

stars were falling from the skies
I've been happy ever since that day
I woke up to hear him say 

Distant lover
king of Galaxy
welcome to my world of fantasy

come into my world of mystery

welcome home to me 

Fantasy - fantasy -

Distant lover
king of Galaxy

welcome to my world of fantasy

come into my world of mystery

welcome home to me

DEAD OR ALIVE - TURN AROUND AND COUNT TO TEN

Hello and welcome back... From the 1989 Dead or Alive album 'Nude' came this pumping track (134bpm).
Turn Around and Count to Ten was HUGE in Japan, made it to No1 on their music charts and stayed there for 17 weeks, in the U.S it made it to No 2 (Dance Charts)

For me, I love this track, not so much the rest of the album (don't hate me). The track 'Come home with me Baby' was pretty good (also on this album)..... I can remember buying this album while in Sydney one Saturday, slipping the fresh brought cassette into my AIWA Walkman and loving the amazing sound.. Pure Heaven

RICK ASTLEY - SHE WANTS TO DANCE WITH ME

Hello and welcome back... In between the huge hits Rick Astley was pumping out during the 80s, came this track back in 1988.

'She Wants to Dance With Me' is a happy little number, with an infectious melodie that plays thru the track and Ricks signature vocals... Its one of my favourite songs.

She wants to dance with Me came from the 1988 Album 'Hold me in your Arms'  and made it to No 1 (music charts) in Canada & No 6 in the U.K and was Ricks first ever self composed track....

Awesome

LYRICS (In case you want to sing Along)

She wants to dance
Oooh, she wants to dance with me
Oh wow yeah

There’s a girl I’ve been meaning to see
And I really get the feeling that she likes me
Cos she said so, but not in so many words
I’ve got to tell you what I’ve heard

She don’t want no wild romance
When she’s with me she only wants to dance

She wants to dance with me
Cos I hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
Cos I let her be what she wants to be

Now I know I’ve been out of touch
And I never meant to hurt my baby oh so much
Cos I love her and I think she loves me
And that’s the way it’s got to be

When we’re together we never fight
We’ve got better things to do tonight

She wants to dance with me
Cos I hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
Cos I let her be what she wants to be

She wants to dance
She wants to dance

She wants to dance with me
Cos I hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
Cos I let her be what she wants to be

She wants to dance with me
Cos I hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
Cos I let her be what she wants to be

She wants to dance with me
Cos I hold her so tight next to me
She wants to dance with me
Cos I let her be what she wants to be
