  • It Was the Reunion No One Ever Thought They'd See But, 26 Years After A
    he 1993 Ivor Novellos should have been one of the greatest moments of Marcella Detroit’s life. The singer-songwriter, one half of the mega-selling pop group Shakespears Sister, was on-stage to collect the band’s Ivor for Best Contemporary Collection Of Songs for their smash hit album, Hormonally Yours. Sadly, the other half of Shakespears Sister, former Bananarama member Siobhan Fahey, had other ideas. Fahey did not Tattend the ceremony, but her publisher, 2005 Music Week Strat Award winner Peter Reichardt of EMI, read out a statement that made it clear the band was finished and wished Detroit “all the best for the future”, before declaring: “All’s well that ends well”. The trouble was that, while Detroit knew all was definitely not well between her and her musical partner, this was the first time she’d heard that the band was officially over. “Getting that confirmation was very emotional for me,” says Detroit, 26 years later. “I have to admit I went back to the table and sobbed silently to myself…” Yes, as splits go, Shakespears Sister’s was as messy and public as humanly possible. But, as with most things to do with this most intriguing of pop groups, there was more to it than met the eye. And now that they are, against all odds, back together (“Hell froze over and pigs have flown!” declares Detroit), it’s time to get to the bottom of it all, once and for all… eeting Siobhan Fahey and Marcella Detroit at their manager’s office in 2019, on the day Shakespears Sister’s return is formally announced, you’d never know they didn’t speak to each other for 25 years.

  • Fifty Years of Songs and Large Concerts for Solidarity
    Fifty Years of Songs and Large Concerts for Solidarity Alba Sanfeliu Bardia Translated by Alba de Béjar Muiños and Patricia Rodríguez Groba Solarità, è questa qua la parola chiave che ti do, aprire farà quegli occhi che si stanno abituando al buio da un po’. Solarità, intesa lo sai, come chiarezza dove sempre non c’è, come calore d’umanità che vorrei sentire intorno a me. Solarità, è questa l’idea, se provi a crederci anche tu, si diffonderà di più… Eros Ramazzotti, Solarità, album: Calma Aparente, 2005. Solarity, this will be the word that I’ll make up. I know it’ll open the eyes that are getting used to not wanting to see. Solarity will mean light and warmth that impregnates each being, Like a hug of humanity that I would want around my being. Solarity, this is the idea, if you can accept it, it will give us hope. Eros Ramazzotti, Solarità, album: Calma Aparente, 2005. Throughout history, Occidental music―specifically the style known as pop-rock that surfaced sixty years ago―has maintained a close relationship with the concept of solidarity. This essay will focus its attention on the musical feedback around the notion of solidarity emanating from Europe and the United States. The essay centers on certain given songs that have signaled a turning point with respect to this concept, that is, songs that have meant a break from the past since they were played for the first time. Likewise, the analysis stresses the individual prominence of certain singers and musical initiatives that, by means of music, have promoted solidarity.
