Ray Wilson celebrates 30 years of music (new music videos)

    Hi

    As you might have noticed, Ray is celebrating 30 years in the music business this year. In another thread (here) I have posted the new music video for "Calling All Stations", which was produced this year. Ray has put some further new videos on YouTube to celebrate his anniversary.


    So I thought I'd post them here (not all at once) over the next few weeks.


    I start with "Millionairhead", which is the title track of the Cut_ album from 1999.

    That one contains footage from a stadium gig Cut_ did at the time supporting big German rock star Westernhagen.

    ... good things come to those who wait

    I really like the Cut album. It had those rockier, straighter elements Ray couldn't do with Genesis and the title track is a great example (the video is nice, but hey, looks awkward to see them play in front of a stadium aufience).

    Indeed that album was a good one - so we may see more tracks from that with a new video? Obviously "Another day" is the most popular one, my favorites are (besides the title track) "Young ones", "Hey hey" and "Gypsy".

    some are wise ... and some otherwise

    Another track I really like is "Wake Up Your Mind" from the Stiltskin/She album.

    An interesting and good rock track. I also like the SHE album and I hope Ray will revisit that style some day.

    So, this is "Bless me" - enhanced and restored music video. The track was a left-over from the She-album and then became the first single on "Propaganda Man"

    I also like this song a lot. The album is a mixed bag, but "Bless Me" is a good track!

    ... make tomorrow today!

    Yes, first I thought that's pretty average, but it's a grower ...


    Like this one: "Along The Way", written by Ray's brother Steve

    been rather busy for a while - but here is another one:


    "Lemon Yellow Sun" is quite an usual track compared to the otzer tracks on "She" and the video is also from 2021.

    One of his finest pop/rock songs. Always liked this style.

    ... there's a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in

    It's a good track but it quicky became his Sussudio for me (means I can't hear it anymnore). Today I'm fine with it.

    cheers

    That is actually a good pop/rock song. Thanks for sharing!

    ...

    A rather dark horse on the "Unfulfillment" album is this track. The older it gets, the more I like it.

    I kind of rediscovered the Unfulfillment album recently. There are quite a few good tracks on that record, including this one.

    cheers

    “Gouranga” was always a strange one for me …


    It was a b-side but also a bonus track on “Change”.

    Today I like it more than when it came out.


    What do you think?

    I like that.

    ok, let's carry on ...

    Ray did a lot of cover versions over the years, and the majority of them live. On his recent album, there's a cover of the Beatles track "Golden Slumbers" and on "Song For A Friend", there's a cover of the Pink Floyd classic "High Hopes". This track also has a music video (which was produced in 2021).
