I would say that individually they were certainly above average singers, but harmonizing together is where they really shined. I'm not the biggest fan of ABBA, but I have to admit that those two female vocalists were also on another level. Dancing Queen is another great example of a powerful harmonic duo.

It's amazing how 2 women's voices intertwine with each others vocals so perfectly. They have very similar ways of singing but they're different it's weird but it works so well. I love the originality of the B52's no one is like them. They seem to genuinely love making music together & having a great time. It shines through on their songs. I've just watch a mini documentary with them. It confirmed my perceptions of them. Lots of smiles & laughing. The obvious take away is, they've been together forever that takes a lot of chemistry as a band.

Saturday August 26, 1989. After decompressing from a long bus ride north from Tampa Florida and settling into my new home living with my adopted dad and his family, I was able to listen to this song on VH-1 on my dad's tv, and then go for a walk down Maple St. Got downtown past Blinker Custard and decided I wanted a chocolate custard cone. Best tasting thing I'd had all summer. The breeze was warm, but not hot. I could smell the Sycamore's sweet sap on the wind, pulling my memory back to early child hood, in this same town, 15 years prior. Waking up to this sunny day, I knew that what I'd left behind wasn't a loss, but a stepping stone into an uncertain, but hopeful future. Those next 33 years have been full of surprises, pain, joy, and wisdom building events and emotions. Keep going, it's worth it.

Dee Donner Ramone the first 10 years of MTV changed soooo much about the music business. It kind of restructured WHY bands toured and how we consumed our music. But in a way, with as much nostalgia as I feel for it, in hindsight it was probably the kick off of a slow decline that has by today rendered it a dinosaur. I hate consuming music through download because I always thought one of the coolest things about being a fan was getting to touch that album after you bought it, the artwork, photos, song info, liner notes ect. I miss that.
