I can understand SOS Band because THAT song did have a lot of synth riffs. But I agree with you on the other 2.

TonyVanDam said:

The only Freeez songs that anyone remembers today are "I.O.U." and "Pop Goes My Love". The fact that a third Freeez track can place higher than either of them means this list is bogus. Even John Rocca's solo single "I Want It To Be Real" is bigger than any third Freeez song.

There is no damn Deee-lite on this list and Love come down is one of my favorite songs ever, but nah not "electro"

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

I love Deee-lite myself. But what electro song did they write/compose?

Where's Din Da Da?

TonyVanDam said:

Can we define "electro"? There seem to be an awful lot of R&B/Rap acts on the list and while I like many of these songs, if we were going to put an "electro" list together acts like Deee-Lite would have to be on it.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

The Human League should have a song on this list: Sound Of The Crowd

PurpleCharm said:

Good Question!

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

Electro to me defines a time period ultimately. You can't really call any song in the 90s electro.

sextonseven said:

Well what the hell is "electro" then? I have never heard this term but I would think "electro" is electronic and how electronic bands did not make this list...

lilgish said:

Oh shit they are going to make breakin' 3 next year! I am serious! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0770725

Damn I always wondered what happened to Lucinda Dickey the one who played Kelly? She just basically disappeared after 1990. she is married to one of the Surivior's show producer. And Adolfo last time I heard still dancing and also that he has a dancing studio in Japan. Michael the one who played Turbo still dances and do some acting.


Only if they going to have a Beat Street 2 then I will be happy lady!

sextonseven said:

From the nu-electro list (IMO):

Jedi Knights- May the Funk Be with You

Ladytron- Playgirl, 17

Felix the Housecat/Miss Kittin- Silver Screen Shower Scene

Daft Punk -- Human After All, Robot Rock

Miss Kitten/The Hacker -- 1982

TonyVanDam said:

Well he'd be whack ass to ignore a thread with his name in it

This has made me want to get all my StreetSounds Electro albums out. Im surprised theres no Breakin In Space..i love that tune.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

If there's any electro song missing, VA would know before anyone else!

[img]13. I.O.U. (And Sometimes Y) - Freeez feat. John Rocca [/img]

I hear that song all the time lately...is that considered electro? I guess I have little idea what that genre is then....

TonyVanDam said:

Electroclash is modern electro.

There's some great jams in that list. They also need to add "Nasty Rock" by The P Crew.

...




Shouldn't Kraftwerk's Trans-Europe Express be on the list...since it inspired a lot of these ? it pretty much started the genre...I'd throw some Scritti Politti on there, too, but...

I knew you would have something to add to this list.

paligap said:

Kraftwerk's Robots & Techno-Pop should be on there too.

Prince's Automatic should be there too.

I don't think I saw anything by Trinere in the list. She had some great jams such as:

All Night
I'll Be All You Ever Need
They're Playing Our Song
How Can We Be Wrong

Some more for the list are:

Freestyle Express - Freestyle
Sound Chaser - Paul Hardcastle
Crash Goes Love - Loleatta Holloway
Electricity - Midnight Star
The Beat Goes On - Orbit
Rock The World - B.O.S.E.
We Are The Jonzun Crew - The Jonzun Crew
