A-Z '13 - No Milk For You


During April a bunch of bloggers are participating in the A-to-Z blogging challenge of 2013. My theme for 2013 is an A-to-Z list of classic Aussie tunes - either classic or just plain songs I like. Today's letter is "N", and the song I've chosen is:

No Milk For You - Brash and Sassy


Brash and Sassy are a little collective from my home town who I only ever saw on the tiniest stage really early on festival days (well, I saw them in clubs too, but what I'm saying is that it's pretty impressive they have a vid clip to show off!). This is such a fun group to see perform (you may get that inkling from watching the clip). The ladies are sassy in a glittery, shoulder-padded 80s sort of way, and boy do they have good hair. They also read poetry about men with rippling muscles in between songs. This song has lyrics well worth paying attention to. Also, I'm fairly sure the park in the vid is the one located just around the corner from where I live! I could be wrong, but it just looks awfully familiar. ;)

  4. You've been showcasing some awesome bands and songs!
    Never heard of this one!
    I love any music with a touch of 80's... that was THE best music decade...! IMHO.

  5. I love 80s glittery shoulder-pad craziness so I'm sure I would love this group. The title of the song is funny.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog! Enjoy A to Z.

    Rather fond of No Aphrodisiac too.

    1. Not a huge Whitlams fan, but that is one I can usually tolerate ;) Ironically my fave song of theirs that I've heard is a cover they did!

      I added the INXS, which somehow escaped my list as well. I must have had a faulty master list to work with, I think! So bad that I also forgot my fave Tumbleweed song originally ;) (Daddy Long Legs)

    2. Gosh. They're not my favourite band, but probably the band I've seen most live. Most recently doing Eternal Nightcap in its entirety, most of the songs on it are good.

      Can't say I know Daddy Long Legs. Tumbleweed is a band I never got into, which is weird, they're just what I like in my 90s music.
