Sean Banan is pretty much a joke in terms of both music and overall popularity. It all began when someone interviewed him when he was in some TV program about dancing, and he said some pretty silly stuff. Since then he's been riding that wave, parodying himself. I honestly have no idea how he's still arounddrnrg wrote:Sean Banana, Swedish House Wives? Are these for real:?
He is still around because people have weird tastes in music. Remeber Joe Dolce(Shadap Yo Face) Rick Dees(Disco Duck)Los Del Rio(Maccarena), Vanilla Ice(Ice Ice baby), Milli Vanilli(WTF) and the two newest travesties PSY and LMFAO. These are all jokes and yet somehow they all had number one hitsI honestly have no idea how he's still around
She already won Eurovision in Germany with "Glorious". Would she even still qualify?Sean Banan and Swedish Housewives were two of the very few highlights in a terrible Melodifestivalen year! Cascada has to win ESC this year!!
), but I can listen to Cascada's songs and even better, Watch her videos. I just can't stand that robotic rapping in the break. For me ; that ruins the songs. Thank Goodness "Glorious" didn't have that in it.What robotic rapping are you on about? And Germany are always automatically in the Eurovision final as they are one of the "Big 5" countries who invest the most into the EBU (European Broadcasting Union) along with UK, Spain, France & Italy. Even so - she would qualify easily for the final if she did have to compete in the semi-finals.drnrg wrote:ditzShe already won Eurovision in Germany with "Glorious".

Anyway,Cascada is HOT! Easy on the eys. Great vocals. She easily overpowers Ke$ha, Rihanna, Bieber and all those robotic sounding Urban hip hop males, like Usher, Chris Brown, ect...(they are the worst choice for a dance song vocals). Why she hasn't made it huge in the states is probobly cause she has too much class and would put to shame all the above mentioned. I don't particularly care for This type of EDM POP(except Serebro or Kelly Clarkson
)Well,the only one that comes to mind at the moment is Rythm Of The Night. I guess it was a cover and she had to stay tru to it's original form? I might have been thinking about someone else? Anyway,That's the whole point of why I actually like her music. So I'll correct it so to say, Hardly any use of that robotic rapping.What robotic rapping are you on about?
Rhythm Of The Night was Corona, and has been covered by a couple of acts, but not Natalie/Cascada as far as I know. None of Cascada's tracks contain any "robotic rapping" (I'm assuming you're referring to the Real McCoy/La Bouche style 90's rapping? Maybe not, but that's what I'm assuming you're talking about. Cascada is all about showcasing Natalie's amazing vocals, nothing else!drnrg wrote:the_ditzWell,the only one that comes to mind at the moment is Rythm Of The Night.

Ok, Corona's "rhythm of the night" is a million times better than Cascada's. It's a shame she had to change her older eurodance style to fit more the american dance pop style....the_ditz wrote:Rhythm Of The Night was Corona, and has been covered by a couple of acts, but not Natalie/Cascada as far as I know.

Okay, I've just search on Youtube and found Cascada's "Rhythm Of The Night" - yeah, I can see why you guys (especially drnrg) hate it, since it's them trying to conform to the mainstream norms and the US styles. Pretty banal to say the least, with the only plus point Natalie's vocals.synthjunkie wrote:Ok, Corona's "rhythm of the night" is a million times better than Cascada's.

Yes, Cascada's songs used to be good many years ago.the_ditz wrote:Okay, I've just search on Youtube and found Cascada's "Rhythm Of The Night" - yeah, I can see why you guys (especially drnrg) hate it, since it's them trying to conform to the mainstream norms and the US styles.

And sadly Cascada had to move away from the hands up style as it lost mainstream popularity. A track like "Everytime We Touch" would never be a worldwide hit today unless it was produced very differently, and that is such a shame but sadly shows the fickle nature of the mainstream music industry today.
Anyway, to avoid this turning into a Cascada appreciation thread, here's some more Italo Disco I've come across...
Neon Game & Amaya - Crazy

Chito - Crown & King

That's one of the most interesting statements I've heard in a while!synthjunkie wrote:Everytime we touch was pretty good, even though it was a cover of the original eurodance song from the 90's, by the group fourteen14
I know some of you guys never listen to anything without a beat but I'm sure you must have heard this at some point...?Awesome find. True to Italo Disco style in percussion, synths and the echoy vocal delivery reminded me of Brian Ice songs. The melody could have been the new Radiorama. The only thing it lacked was the middle break. That probobly would have added the extra minute that its missing.Neon Game & Amaya - Crazy
Also good. Weird artist name?This one relies on the synths throught the melody as opposed to a synth riff. remeinded me alot of a wonderful song on High Energy records called Loving You Forever- McBrian. Infact the song could have fit nicely under that record label.The sleeve could have used a bit of more contrast between the title of the song and the image of the crowns. A bit of the purple on the crown stones as an outline for the title would have really stood out. The vocals were ok, but it definately needed some female backup. Once again no break and it had what I concider a "radio version" intro. This was the versions the radio played during 86-88. Both of these tunes deserve a vinyl release.Chito - Crown & King
Looks like you really did your homework here. I care so little about this type of EDM that I wouldn't take the TIME to decipher who they sampled, unless it's so in the face obvious.So many of these pop songs are complete rip offs, either done with permission or without, of either italo melodies or eurodance songs.
some of the older ones even copy disco songs.
hehehe, that's cool how it's a cover of a cover! so cascada is actually covering a dance version, of fourteen14's dance version made in 1997, who covers maggie's 1992 version.UFOPOLI wrote:That's one of the most interesting statements I've heard in a while!synthjunkie wrote:Everytime we touch was pretty good, even though it was a cover of the original eurodance song from the 90's, by the group fourteen14
That's pretty much one of my hobbies, to go through music databases and find samples on who copied who, since most electronic dance music today is sampled from disco, early house, or italo, since those are the 3 main staples from where all EDM stems from. So I go through the likes until I find the sampled melody.Looks like you really did your homework here.
