July 19th, 1982 - Queen Story!
Queen released 'Calling All Girls', their first the A-side release composed by Roger Taylor, bw 'Put Out The Fire' in USA (taken 'Hot Space' album)
- 'Calling All Girls' written by Roger Taylor
Interviewer: How did you get the thick rhythm sound in 'Calling All Girls'?
Brian May: "That's a combination of acoustic and electric guitar. I think Roger did the feed-back tracks near the end of the break. You never know where things come from. Roger played a lot of guitar. He's always bursting to play guitar."
- Brian May
Interview 1982, On The Record
- B-Side: 'Put Out The Fire' written by Brian May
๐Ÿ“ธ Pic: screenshot from 'Calling All Girls' Official Video: inspired by the science fiction movie 'THX 1138', directed by a pre-Star Wars George Lucas, and also by the George Orwell novel '1984'. (1984 the name of one of Brian May's pre-Queen groups)

Don't I know that I wasted my life?
Don't you ever think that perhaps its not my choice?
Perhaps I've tried to hold onto it,
Perhaps I tried my best,
And that it was never enough.

[In Keep the Aspidistra Flying] half of Orwell is still hankering after an old-fashioned 1890s aestheticism, while the other half cheerfully extracts a Swiftian horror from the processes of ordinary life. Above them sounds a small but insistent prophetic note. โ€˜Presently the aeroplanes are coming,โ€™ Gordon reflects early on in the proceedings. โ€˜Zoom-whizz-crash! The whole world is going up in a roar of high explosive.โ€™ โ€˜My poems are dead because Iโ€™m dead. Youโ€™re dead. Weโ€™re all dead. Dead people in a dead world,โ€™ Gordon lectures Rosemary in an uncannily accurate foreshadowing of Nineteen Eighty-Four. Even the poster advertising a preventative against sweaty feet that Gordon works on after his return to the agencyโ€”โ€˜P.P.โ€™ [pedic perspiration] WHAT ABOUT YOU?โ€™ (the slogan is reckoned to have a โ€˜sinister simplicityโ€™)โ€”seems only a short distance away from the world of Big Brother and the Thought Police.
D. J. Taylor, Orwell: The Life (Vintage, 2004), p. 166.

Tumblr media
If youโ€™re looking for suggestions on which authors and music artists to check out next, look to your moon sign!

This is just like 1984. In our current time dream is our big brother and unlike 1984 we defeated himโ€ฆ. But we must stay silent for he is near
I love breeding negativity. The world doesnโ€™t have enough negativity. I am a pessimist at the moment. I am an optimist except for when I am a pessimist. Dream makes me a pessimist. I hate dream.

While damning the rackets that compel him to prostitute his small but genuine talent, [Gordon Comstock, the protagonist of George Orwellโ€™s Keep the Aspidistra Flying] is uneasily consciousโ€”something that perhaps marks him out as a 1930s anti-heroโ€”that his struggles and resentment are increasingly irrelevant when set against the turmoil beyond the window. In some ways Aspidistra is less a novel about a struggling poet who feels himself to be excluded from the citadels of literary power than an attempt to foresee the future by a man who realises that the unsatisfactory arrangements of present-day life are set to be obliterated by something a great deal worse.
D. J. Taylor, Orwell: The Life (Vintage, 2004), p. 149.
