TIL, thanks for sharing this song with us!

The Human League’s Phil Oakey teamed up with electronic master Giorgio Moroder for this classic '80s tune.

Giorgio Moroder wrote ‘Together in Electric Dreams’, intended for a male solo vocal.

Movie director Steve Barron suggested his former colleague, Human League frontman Philip Oakey, for the part.

The song was later credited to Moroder and Oakey, after the two teamed up in the recording studio.

Moroder is best known for his production work and is often called the ‘Father of Disco’.

The film Electric Dreams was director Steve Barron’s first full feature film. His previous work included directing a number of music videos, with his most famous being The Human League’s ‘Don’t You Want Me’ in 1981.^[1]

Together In Electric Dreams (Remastered 2003 / From “Electric Dreams” Original Motion Picture… [03:52 | Philip Oakey - Topic]^[2]

This synth pop ballad captures the story of a romance.

The song was based upon Steve Barron’s film, “Electric Dreams” (Barron directed the Human League’s music videos, he directed “Don’t You Want Me”).

The song was originally released to advertise the film but quickly overshadowed the film and became a success in its own right as it peaked at No. 3 on the UK charts.

Oakey stated that it is ironic as the track took ten minutes to record without any hope or realisation that it would become a worldwide hit^[3]

We must not fear using our critical thinking muscles, or else we will lose them.

There should be no need to ask, but I guess some still need to…

The normal route would be to check profile information and history; then it becomes really easy to figure out, for some.

The gags of dissonance echo as they preach

“‘A Visceral Retch’ is a song that fans of The Somatic Defilement will latch onto immediately. It was one of the first songs we had in the chamber to work with. This song came to light thanks mostly to [guitarist] Zach Householder. He showed us and we all immediately said, ‘yup, that’s it.’ Zach is notorious for very dark and horror-like vibes so this album is right in his wheelhouse. The song is disturbing. Imagine being put in a situation of survival by gluttonous, mammoth demons that give you a choice. Eat the demons’ waste, eat each other, or starve to death. The twist, you’re against the people you love the most. It’s a way to find the ones that are truly evil people to build and strengthen their cult. It also represents how horrible people can really be, when push comes to shove.” – Phil Bozeman^[1]

AOC would never hate “Mama Bear!”

ITT: Blue MAGA and preaching to the choir.

Dr. Jill Stein has improved the Green Party; y’all just believe anything the duopoly and owner-class media spit out when it agrees with your thinking.

Muslim support is at an all-time high for Dr. Jill Stein; that is why AOCPelosi, the new attack dog of Blue MAGA, started up again.

I suggest getting out of the echo chambers and checking out independent journalists instead of continuing the self-censorship.

So you want us to reward genocide by voting for Trump or Harris…

Logic.

If you vote, I say raise your standards and vote for a third party.

Do not reward those that are for another genocide and for more forever wars.

How?

Voting for Harris or Trump, you will be rewarding another genocide and more forever wars.

The duopoly only helps the owner-class, while it continues to pander to the working class with crumbs.

I disagree again with your framing and smearing.

I don’t think we will agree on this; our experiences and world views differ when it comes to culture wars and identity politics.

I say to continue building the working class grass roots movement so as to destroy the status quo and push for a better society for Americans and the working class of the world.

Thanks for the chat, and I hope we may unite on other topics!

I disagree with your framing and talking points.

You seem to be going back to the circle jerk of the duopoly, smearing and lying to push your moral high horse and victimhood.

I am not for sacrificing scapegoats and the like; I am for the struggles of the working class; we do that by building up grass roots movements and uniting, not by diving ourselves.

I am for the working class, not the owner-class and their lackeys that help divide us with culture wars and identity politics.

It is interesting, but I still see it as jargon and a distraction for the issues that will unite the working class.

Intersectionality is a sociological analytical framework for understanding how groups’ and individuals’ social and political identities result in unique combinations of discrimination and privilege. Examples of these factors include gender, caste, sex, race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, religion, disability, height, age, and weight.

Crumbs are crumbs for the working class.

That is why I have this as my banner:

Fighting for minorities is not a monopoly that the Democrats hold; similar to their support for the working class, it is all an act so as to fearmonger and fundraise.

Some learned this from the Obama failures, others from the Bernie Sanders Era failures, and some learned before and others will learn after another status quo president is elected.

Raise your standards and check out third parties so we may continue to fight against the status quo.

I disagree with your framing.

You are bringing in talking points from the duopoly, which I am against and do not support.

Fighting for minorities has always been the role of grass-roots movements and third parties.

Bringing the working class and local communities together to push past the status quo is the long-term goal, instead of being stuck on duopoly talking points that continue to be problems decades later.

All is well.

We all go down the rabbit holes on our own time.

Not to forget to mention the other video of the IDF moving the young Palestinian bodies with excavaders.

Well, if you fear change from the status quo, nothing will ever be viable.

We need to be willing to fight for what we demand; that means getting over the fearmongering pushed by the duopoly.
