Recorded from the original LP...

'Dancing in the Moonlight (All Alone)' and 'Honeymoon on Mars', by Be Bop Deluxe, from their 1976 album 'Modern Music'.

Composed by Bill Nelson, published by BMI; recording published by EMI Records Ltd.

I don't find literal modern music too appealing. However, Modern Music, the album, is outstanding, as are these two songs from side two thereof. Should you like to read along (or do whatever else you might choose to do with lyrics, I won't judge you), here are the lyrics, hand-copied verbatim (and double-checked, too!) from the back of the inner sleeve:

DANCING IN THE MOONLIGHT (ALL ALONE.)

Burning . . . My love for you is burning . . .

Yearning for the day when I'm returning . . .

All alone . . . I wonder if you're all alone . . .

Moonlight . . . You're dancing in the moonlight . . .

All-night . . . I want to hold you all night . . .

All alone, I wonder if you're all alone

When will this journey be through . . .

I'd like to make love to you . . .

Moonlight . . .

You're dancing in the moonlight . . .

All night . . .

I need to hold you all night . . .

All alone . . . I wonder if you're all alone . . .

All alone . . . I wonder if you're all alone . . .

All alone . . . I wonder if you're all alone . . .

HONEYMOON ON MARS

I wonder if you're all alone

Beneath those diamond stars . . .

A honeymoon on Mars . . .

Tonight this desert world is ours . . .

I'll meet you by the towers

For cocktails in the bar . . .

Martian honeymoon, We're going out there in July . . .

Martian honeymoon, we'll watch the passing show go by . . .

Flash Gordon's ghost will never die,

He's just a flash across the sky . . .

He's just a flash across the sky . . .

He's just a flash across the sky . . .

Copyrights belong to their respective owners, of course, but are gently brushed aside in the spirit of listening to good music. If you like BBD a lot, go buy an LP or a CD or buy (aye, pay for) a digital-download and support Bill Nelson. On the subject of rights-reservedness, I point out:

The title picture was made by me, a composite of three images (a photo of the band, a photo of a rocket taking off, and a scan of the cover of Modern Music. The exact sources I have forgotten; if you own any of the images and take great offence at my using them this way, do tell me and I'll correct the problem--I don't mean to accidentally steal your stuff.)

The second picture is a neat work of art lovingly appropriated from here: http://mrdotd.wordpress.com/2009/04/06/dancing-in-the-moonlight/

The final picture is one of Mars, gratefully lifted from: http://scienceblogs.com/startswithabang/2009/07/could_we_garden_on_mars.php

Enjoy!

Sounds like the British version of Styx.

*Be bop de luxe - Dancing in the moonlight* (1976)*Be bop de luxe* was marketed as radically different and avantguard band. In reality, there was nothing particularly new in their music. But I think they were good.

search for 'Dreamsville' a forum for all things 'Bill' and BBD.

I totally agree. I sometimes imagine with horror that I'd never discovered Be-Bop/Red Noise/Bill solo. How much I'd have missed out, like so many other people have.

Those of us who appreciated the talents of Mr Bill Nelson are so,so lucky.Like lots of people i could not imagine my life without music.Listening to BBDL or just Bill as he is today is special and makes a good day even better and a bad day can't be when you here this stuff!

@hewides Right on! Glad you appreciate the quality, too--it came out monophonic, but I was careful with volume levels as I recorded it off of the LP. :D
