mettelus Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 The comment about putting his pic on the single cover affecting air play gave me a chuckle. My hair was similar in high school, so after getting called "Billy Idol" numerous times "Mony Mony" got picked up half because of that... but also because audiences seem to love to participate in the explicit lyrics for some odd reason 🙄The writing of "White Wedding" in 15 minutes was rather cool. Oddly.. after that White Wedding video, one popped up about "Take on Me should not have been a hit"... long story short, was a Bridges song carried forward and flopped twice... then enter two animators and MTV. When he mentioned the iconic video aspect (which it was), I had to look that up and... OMG... 2.1B (yeah billion) views (posted in 2009)! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 White Wedding was the last song I played on stage (joined a local band playing at a club just for that song) before I broke my arm the next day and couldn't play for years... Oh, well! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

57Gregy Posted Thursday at 05:58 PM Share Posted Thursday at 05:58 PM I hate commercials. I know they pay for things at the TV or radio stations, but too much is too much. I was listening to an I Love Radio station on my drive home today when a block of ads began. Off goes the radio. There's no other rock station that I know of in this area. White Wedding has never been a favorite of mine, but this station has played it more in the year or so I've been listening to it than when the song was new. I was almost home and thinking 'I hope they play a kick butt rock and roller before I reach the house, but not WW, please". Of course, I started hearing that song in my head. 🙂 When I started the radio again, White Wedding was playing. Eerie. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
