cress Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 Seen this guy on GMTV the other day thought nothing of it ? go to youtube and watch it , pretty good me thinks
Andybellwood Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfihYWRWRTQ&feature=youtu.be any idea where it was filmed ? Any one recognise any of the dancers ?
Gold Band Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 Been talked about on here although somewhat strange remarks being that the best bits at the end of the video Mike put this up so he may know who attended: Kirsty 1
Guest OntheScene Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Seems strange seeing NS dancers to this type of tune as I don't feel there's much soul to it. Not that its bad, maybe I'm just getting old. Would be great if some new artist really tried to emulate the authentic soul sound of the sixties but in a new song/s. May start a new craze, I think the kids are ready for it.
Andybellwood Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 a bit more on here which perhaps explains https://www.planetnotion.com/2013/07/03/guest-playlist-john-newman/
Gene-r Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) Love Me Again is currently No. 1 in the UK Top 40 singles chart. Edited July 12, 2013 by Gene-R
Kev John Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I Wonder if any of them dancers will be @ Kings Hall Allnighter Stoke on the 20th ? The BBC will have camera's there !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Popular Post Dave Rimmer Posted July 12, 2013 Popular Post Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) This is at least the third thread on this song. Why ? It's not Soul music. It's not Northern Soul music, It's got absolutely nothing to do with either musical genre. Having read his playlist (See link above) I'd suggest that he's not into the scene at all, rather a pastiche of it that has been created for him. I can't think of ANY venue that would have a playlist like those ten tracks ! And if this is the best that the UK has to offer when it comes to getting to number one in the singles chart, it's a pretty poor showing. The song is terriible. Edited July 12, 2013 by Dave Rimmer 5
sepia Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 there is a clip,on the making of the video on the tube. says his mum,uncle & mates go to northern nights.

To be honest Dave, I've seen far worse get to No. 1 in the UK singles charts over the past couple of decades, which doesn't say a great deal at all for the taste in modern music in the UK!

Spot on Dave - I really wonder why tosh like this even warrents mention on this site - how easy the marketing people suck people into believing this is the next big thing - first we had Plan B or whatever and he soon nailed his colours to the mast and sailed off to try another direction. The whole thing epitomises what we all steadfastly tried to avoid in the 60s and 70s.

The whole thing epitomises what we all steadfastly tried to avoid in the 60s and 70s. We've always had people mentioning pop shite in the same breath as northern. It's nowt new. I remember over the years having arguments with people trying to associate stuff like Dexy's, Jo Boxers, Katrina & The Waves, Edwyn Collins and even that Weller effort with Northern Soul. It's not, it never was and it never will be. Simple!
givemesoul Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 https://www.black-butter.co.uk/john-newman/ i would say the guys done pretty good for himself
