    One of Boston's drummers played for a local band in Topeka Kansas...quite good.

    This version really gives me goosebumps all over. Nancy's voice is simply outstanding, even now still after all of these years. And to think that this song was the only one that she ever did the lead vocal on.

    It's not a cover, though. It has always been a Heart song, even though it is one of the few songs that they haven't written themselves. It was entirely written by one of Ann and Nancy's friends who often co-wrote with them on other songs. And it's also the only one of their songs where Nancy did the lead vocal.

    Living in the Limelight. The universal dream, for those who wish to seem. Those who wish to be must put aside the alienation, get on with the fascination, the real relation, the underlying theme...

    This is a song in Dutch from 1983, by the Dutch band "Het Goede Doel", which translates to English as "The Noble Cause", and they're singing about Belgium — a bit too waxing, I must say. But it was a big hit, both in the Netherlands and here in the Flanders, and these guys were all great musicians.

    I've put the original lyrics in Dutch on the left hand side, and in the right hand column (and in a slightly lighter color) you will find a rough translation — "rough" because certain expressions cannot be translated literally without violating the context or emotions behind each line.




    Waar kan ik heen
    Ik kan niet naar Duitsland
    Kan niet naar Duitsland
    Daar zijn ze zo streng

    Waar kan ik heen
    Ik kan niet naar Chili
    Kan niet naar Chili
    Daar doen ze zo eng

    Ik wil niet wonen in Kuweit
    Want Kuweit, dat is me te heet
    En wat Amerika betreft
    Dat land bestaat niet echt

    Waar kan ik heen
    Ik wil niet naar Noord-Ierland
    Niet naar Noord-Ierland
    Daar gaat alles stuk

    Waar kan ik heen
    Ik kan niet naar China
    Ik wil niet naar China
    Dat is me te druk

    Ik wil niet wonen in Schotland
    Want Schotland dat is me nat
    En de U.S.S.S.S.R.
    Dat gaat me echt te ver

    Is er leven op Pluto
    Kun je dansen op de maan
    Is er een plaats tussen de sterren
    Waar ik heen kan gaan

    Is er leven op Pluto
    Kun je dansen op de maan
    Is er een plaats tussen de sterren
    Waar ik heen kan gaan

    Waar kan ik heen
    Ik kan niet naar Cuba
    Ik wil niet naar Cuba
    Dat is me te zoet

    Waar kan ik heen
    Ik kan niet naar Polen
    Ik wil niet naar Polen
    Daar gaat het te goed

    Ik wil niet wonen in Lapland
    Want Lapland, dat is me te koud
    En ik wil weg uit Nederland
    Want hier krijg ik het benauwd

    Is er leven op Pluto
    Kun je dansen op de maan
    Is er een plaats tussen de sterren
    Waar ik heen kan gaan

    Is er leven op Pluto
    Kun je dansen op de maan
    Is er een plaats tussen de sterren
    Waar ik heen kan gaan

    Ik heb getwijfeld over België
    Omdat iedereen daar lacht
    Ik heb getwijfeld over België
    Want dat taaltje is zo zacht

    Ik stond zelfs in dubio
    Maar ik nam geen enkel risico
    Ik heb getwijfeld over België

    Ik stond zelfs in dubio
    Maar ik nam geen enkel risico
    Ik heb getwijfeld over België

    België, België, België, België

    Is er leven op Pluto
    Kun je dansen op de maan
    Is er een plaats tussen de sterren
    Waar ik heen kan gaan

    Is er leven op Pluto
    Kun je dansen op de maan
    Is er een plaats tussen de sterren
    Waar ik heen kan gaan
    Where can I go to
    I can't go to Germany
    Can't go to Germany
    They're so strict over there

    Where can I go to
    I can't go to Chile
    Can't go to Chile
    That's too scary

    I don't want to live in Kuwait
    Because Kuwait is much too hot
    And whereas America's concerned
    That country's not real

    Where can I go to
    I don't want to go to Northern Ireland
    Can't go to Northern Ireland
    Everything gets destroyed there

    Where can I go to
    I can't go to China
    Don't want to go to China
    There's too much going on there

    I don't want to live in Scotland
    Because Scotland is too wet
    And the U.S.S.S.S.R.
    That would be taking things way too far

    Is there life on Pluto
    Can you dance on the moon
    Is there a place among the stars
    That I can go to

    Is there life on Pluto
    Can you dance on the moon
    Is there a place among the stars
    That I can go to

    Where can I go to
    I can't go to Cuba
    I don't want to go to Cuba
    That's just a little too sweet

    Where can I go to
    I can't go to Poland
    I don't want to go to Poland
    Things are going too well over there

    I don't want to live in Lapland
    Because Lapland is way too cold
    And I want to leave the Netherlands
    Because I'm suffocating here

    Is there life on Pluto
    Can you dance on the moon
    Is there a place among the stars
    That I can go to

    Is there life on Pluto
    Can you dance on the moon
    Is there a place among the stars
    That I can go to

    I was contemplating Belgium
    Because everyone smiles there
    I was contemplating Belgium
    Because that lingo is so soft

    I was even in doubt for a moment
    But I didn't want to take any chances
    I was contemplating Belgium

    I was even in doubt for a moment
    But I didn't want to take any chances
    I was contemplating Belgium

    Belgium, Belgium, Belgium, Belgium

    Is there life on Pluto
    Can you dance on the moon
    Is there a place among the stars
    That I can go to

    Is there life on Pluto
    Can you dance on the moon
    Is there a place among the stars
    That I can go to

    Loving this song that I discovered just a few days ago, the band is familiar though.

    Not sure whether I've already posted this one — hey, it's a looooong thread.

    This was back when they were still called Little River Band, because due to a couple of unfortunate legal decisions in the 1980s, which then led to a litigation that they lost, Glenn Shorrock, Graeham Goble and Beeb Birtles no longer own the legal right to call themselves Little River Band. The legal right to the band name now belongs to Stephen Housden, the lead guitarist who was brought in to replace David Briggs, who was still featured on lead guitar in the video below.



    With Housden owning the rights to the band name, he and US American bass player Wayne Nelson — who was hired by the original Australian band members in 1980 — put a new band together, exclusively comprised of US American members with the exception of Housden himself. However, Housden in turn left the band in 2006 — he's now living in Ireland — while still retaining ownership of the band name, and so now Little River Band is a band exclusively comprised of US American members, with Nelson taking care of the lead vocals.

    The original founding members are occasionally still performing their old songs under the name Birtles Shorrock Goble and have released DVDs with live performances of all their greatest hits.

    Another hit from the Wilson sisters. Although she mainly stuck to an acoustic guitar in those days, Nancy is quite a talented guitarist in her own right.
