The second of my PWL megamixes with hits from Kylie, Donna Summer, Rick Astley, Bananarama, Mel & Kim, Laura Branigan, Hazell Dean & more. Unfortunately, the Mel & Kim and Laura Branigan videos were blocked on copyright grounds.
Oh man, I am just absolutely and totally lost in 80's nostalgia right now. Re-living everything during that time, while I was at school. Good start with Mel & Kim's best track. And you included the amazing Mandy Smith - I totally forgot about that awesome song, I WANT TO GO BACK.
Donna Summer's voice is just fabulous and strong in Love's About To Change My Heart. Her "This Time I Know It's For Real" hit brought people to the dance floor in 10-15 seconds. Miss you Donna. Aloha!
These "Megamixes" are suprisingly well crafted and HIGHLY enjoyable--the mix does not destroy the flavor of the originals. Thank you for hours of pure SAW pleasure. Well executed!
JAMES BLAIR!!! I salute you!! This is pure pop perfection. Your mixes are a pleasure to watch and listen to. I'm back to being "THAT" kid, listening to my records, way back 1986 - 1989. Thank you James ❤
@@projectkmixes Man you did an amazing job. I live in Canada and with the exception of Banarama, Rick Astley, Dead Or Alive, and Kylie Minogue (Australian) I never heard of most of these acts but they were also brilliant. I had no idea that Sunita's Mother was Miguel Brown of "So Many Men, So Little Time" Fame. Between 1983-1986 I remember my Sister and I heard a New Group and we would wonder what part of England they were from or even Australia. Banarama made History by being the Only Girlband from The UK to do American Bandstand and the "First" Girlband from The UK to go to Number One in The US. They really did kick the door open for every Girlband that came after them most notably The Spice Girls and Girls Aloud.
Who did "Get Ready". It was written by Motown Legend Smokey Robinson who in North America is making some serious Bank. They used his Songs like Cruisin' and Get Ready for Walmart & a Canadian Cell Phone Company called Telus. Also Banarama also have ties to Motown because they did "their" version of "He Was Really Saying Something" by The Velvelettes who were next to The Contours (Do You Love Me) and Brenda Holloway (Take Me In Your Arms) as three of the most overlooked acts at Motown. In future years another one of their Songs "Needle In A Haystack" was covered by The Australian Group The Twilights.
@@scotsj1Thanks so much. A bit late. Was she a One Hit Wonder? A Couple of years ago, they did a tribute to smokey robinson where he received the gerswhin prize for music (named after George Gershwin). 😊
Rick Astley's Song Whenever You Need Somebody would be a great mashup to Call It What You Want by New Kids On The Block. The Clip with the Letters AB was from American Bandstand that featured alot of UK artists from he 1960's to the 1980's, Rick Astley never did The Show, what a shame.
This isn't a new mix, Phil harding and Ian cunrow who were part of the PWL team at the hit factory produced a good few of these, some on vhs, some on 12 vynl others on double albums and this has all the hallmarks of thier style.
I’m not sure what you’re referring to there. This is a megamix I created using the PWL mixes from the 80s, most of which were mixed by Harding & Curnow, Phil Harding (on his own) and Pete Hammond.
