OLDIES SUNDAY (Christmas): Marcia Miranda – Gimme Love Fuh Christmas (1993)

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s that time of year when it’s colder than cold, and Sorrel and Ham become holiday staples. It’s Christmas time on Oldies Sunday. For today’s entry, we take a trip to Trinidad & Tobago to hear Marcia Miranda’s “Gimme Love Fuh Christmas“!

Arranged by Pelham Goddard, “Gimme Love Fuh Christmas” was released through Crosby’s in 1993. The holiday-themed track finds Marcia Miranda rejecting all the typical gifts that one would want for Christmas, and is instead needing love from her Husband. It gets very chilly at that time of year, and without the love of her life, the season is a sad one. “Gimme Love” resonates with many during this time of year as some would find themselves lonely, or even distant from the ones they love. We hope that changes for many of our listeners. Marcia Miranda’s “Gimme Love Fuh Christmas” became a popular Parang track when released, and is still played through various outlets to this day.

Marcia Miranda is still very active in the Caribbean, and has a catalogue that extends beyond Parang. Stay tuned to this platform for another holiday offering on Oldies Sunday!

Ladies “Come Thru” For @RoySimmons_ & GBM Nutron’s Collaboration!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Trini Recording Artist Roy Simmons is no stranger to the music scene, but he has been consistently working on his craft, and growing his fanbase in the process. With only 3 years in, he has enjoyed heavy rotation on Radio, released an EP called “Pardon Me” that gained rave reviews, and he has made connections with some of the top names in Trinidad & Tobago. Still pushing the “Pardon Me” EP to new territories, he released the visual for a track off of the project called, “Come Thru“.

Directed by Pelham Goddard, “Come Thru” features GBM Nutron, and its something for the ladies. With Roy Simmons delivering smooth vocals and GBM dishing out some slick lines, “Come Thru” is one of the favourites off of the “Pardon Me” EP. The video provides a lil bit of a sexy vibe, but the twist at the end will have you rewatching it a few times. Roy Simmons looks to take his music to the next level, so get familiar with him today!

Posted on by swadedavillain

In recognition of the Christmas season, we’re highlighting a few Christmas songs for the month of December on Oldies Sunday! Last week we visited Haiti, this week we stopped by Barbados and Trinidad and Tobago to check out the legendary Singing Francine’s “Hurray Hurrah“!

Arranged by Pelham Goddard and released through M&H Productions in 1979, Singing Francine shares the story of the birth of Jesus Christ, and highlights his importance to all of us. Over beautiful production, Singing Francine gives us a lively song that will make everyone join in clapping and singing. The track was featured on her 1979 “From Christmas…To Carnival Vol. 1” album, and her 1981 “Christmas Is Love” album. One of the Queens of Calypso with the great Calypso Rose, Singing Francine has brought joy and a lot of entertainment to anyone within earshot of her voice for many decades. “Hurray Hurrah” is one of her many Christmas releases, and is still played in various parts of the Caribbean.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Calypso Rose – Come Leh We Jam (1977)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Today on Oldies Sunday, we look back at the Calypso Legend, Calypso Rose’s “Come Leh We Jam“. Arranged/Produced by Pelham Goddard and Charlie’s Roots, this single was released in 1977 by CLO Records. The single was a part of her “Her Majesty: Calypso Rose” album which was released the same year, and was entered in the 1978 Trinidad Road March Competition. With her signature delivery, she speaks on the Soca music putting her in a wonderful place and prompting her to dance through it all. She also encourages unity in the dance with lyrics like “So leh we jam, jam, jam…“, “Jam together, Jam one another…“.
