A Colts Reunion Would Be Great
Posted: 06 Apr 2012 15:44Hi everyone,
I've been reading this board for years but this is my first post. I'm a big Stewart Copeland fan. I love the topics on this board and the great work everyone have done here.
One of Stewart's projects that I love is Colts, which was Stewart Copeland and Derek Holt. The name "Colts" came from putting their last names together. In the mid 1980's they made some music that I really love. Their song "Love Lessons" is amazing. I'm listening to it now as I type this. The vocals, the sounds, the energy... great energy in that song. I put it on loop and sometimes I listen to it for hours as I work. I can't say that I can do that with many songs.
Colts also had the theme song for the cartoon Star Wars: Droids. That's a great song too. A lot of people heard that one. I still sometimes see people on Twitter or elsewhere saying nice things about it.
I could be wrong, but I think that's all the songs they made. It's so disappointing, because I think the two of them made excellent music together. I think when a group has that much chemistry, why not do more?
I'd love for the two of them to make some new music. Even one new song would be great. Make it and sell it on iTunes. It doesn't have to take a lot of time.
I've talked to Derek Holt and he said he'd like to make more Colts music. He's a really nice guy too, I have to say. Plus a super talented man, as anyone who knows his own music career knows. He's in England, but isn't Stewart going to be on tour in England this summer?
To me, too many songs are so slow and boring now. When I listen to Love Lessons, and feel the energy and power from it, I long for more. A Colts reunion after all these decades apart would be exciting and fun.
I made a Facebook page too for a Colts reunion. It even has the cover art for the Love Lessons single. If you want to see it, check the address below. And please give it a "like".
