Too many chocolate chip cookies and an awesome dance single.<\/p>\n<p>Mary and I heard Dead Or Alive&#8217;s &#8220;You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)&#8221; on the car radio yesterday, and I just had to hear it again. The version on this 12 inch is the &#8220;Performance Mix&#8221; and you can believe I was doing a performance all three times I blasted it today. I did move to turn it down a bit when I saw the UPS guy outside, but fortunately he went to another house. I was able to complete my dance routine mostly without interruption. And pretty much everybody has to dance when they hear this classic. It&#8217;s so punchy!<\/p>\n<p>The performance by singer Pete Burns is so complete and uninhibited that I can&#8217;t imagine it being more entertaining. And I&#8217;m only talking about his singing, see the video for more. Life lesson from Pete Burns: If you going to do something, do it all the way and don&#8217;t hold anything back. Except maybe when it comes to body mods. I saw Pete on some strange TV show a while back and I think he&#8217;s overdosed on plastic surgery.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>Like a record baby!<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Dead_or_Alive_(band)\">Dead Or Alive<\/a> &#8211; You may be surprised who has been associated with this band over the years.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pete_Burns\">Pete Burns<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Three minutes of dance heaven&#8230;<br \/>\n<object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"425\" height=\"355\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"wmode\" value=\"transparent\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/CMwdAc1Dzfg&amp;rel=1\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"425\" height=\"355\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/CMwdAc1Dzfg&amp;rel=1\" wmode=\"transparent\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Artist: Dead Or Alive Title: You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) 12 Year: 1984 Format: Vinyl 12 in.
