Thanks for the link, Julie. That's much better. They are playing She's Like the Wind on the live stream.

I'm really glad it's working because the site has been very bad today. Glad you found me!

It's a treat either way, esp. when starting with "99 Luftballons" in Deutsch!

I always wanted Rammstein to do a version of 99 Luftballons.

"Dark Knight of the Soul" ... Better register that before the Batman people snag it and then come looking for you, Julie.

afternoon Julie and everyone!

@Ken The F. Scott Fitzgerald people might come looking for them first.

Let's not forget the fundraiser right now either. You can't actually donate to my show but it all goes to the same place. you can donate for Amanda, Uncle Michael, Matt, Doug, your drummer streams favorites!

Love all the interviews. This show is such an asset to the station...even if it's just fill-ins for now.

thanks so much CS!

Cover album came out in 2007. This has a nice 90s feel to it.

Blown away by this song! Nena has an edge! Never would have thunk it.
Avatar 12:32pm
Julie:

she did a hell of a show, and her son and daughter are both in her band.
Avatar 12:33pm

It's amazing how many so-called one hit wonders in the 80s actually have a good body of work. Great songs that never made it into the mainstream.

One can even donate to Amanda's "Simpson's Time" podcast. It's way at the bottom of the shows menu.

Jennie Vee is another great Dark Night discovery. Thanks, Julie.

Any relation to recently deceased Bobby Vee, I wonder?
Avatar 12:57pm
Julie:

Jennie was living here in NYC and I wanted to have her in but timing was never right, now she's moved to LA. She's been opening for Echo & The Bunnymen!
Avatar 12:58pm

@Ken He did have a daughter named Jenny.

Enjoying the show! Hearing Nena again was great. And it doesn't look like she's aged much since the 1980s!
Avatar 1:18pm
Julie:

No she looks and sounds amazing! She's a grandmother!

listener james from westwood:

Your show consistently has the best covers on the station. Always love hearing new versions I've never encountered before!

The Ridgewood crew is enjoying this show immensely and wondering if you are going to settle into a regular slot? Maybe? Please?
Avatar 1:23pm
Julie:

Weinstein you know I'd love to! It's not up to me :)
Avatar 1:23pm
Julie:

Thanks, James, I love a good cover!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:24pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

I was also going to remark on Nena's good looks. Must be blessed with the good genes.
  1:35pm
@BuckyKatt:

Maybe Nena eats a lot of Dannon yogurt & will live to be 100, like the people in those old TV commercials.

"Dancing With" was a huge dance-floor hit at the Dirt Club, a now-nearly forgotten but then-influential venue in Bloomfield NJ. Hearing the Idol hit always takes me back there.
Avatar 1:42pm
Julie:

I'm not quite sure what the difference is between the Gen X version and the solo one, but I picked the Gen X.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:43pm
Parq:

This one sounds identical to the way I remember the idol one sounding for the most part, but this run-out is different.
Avatar 1:44pm
Julie:

I think I play Madonna every time I fill in for Amanda.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:45pm
listener james from westwood:

The Idol version's a touch shorter, and has some different instrumentation behind part of it. Had never heard the Gen X version!
Avatar 1:48pm
Julie:

ah Amanda will be filling in for Sheila on Friday, so you'll get to hear 3 hours of her!

Sad about Caroline Crawley.

Missed the first half, but the second half was what the kids call neat-o. Nifty news about Amanda on Friday afternoon, too.
Avatar 1:55pm

Parq the Nena interview is the first 1/2 hour if you decide to go back and listen. :)
Avatar 1:55pm

Great tunes, Julie. You made my Wednesday afternoon. Have a great Halloween everyone!
Avatar 1:57pm

Probably can't fit the whole thing, but I was itching to play the new Austra song. Thanks for listening everyone and stay tuned for Ridgewood Radio, I think?
