Topic: Flirtations


In the News (Sat 2 Jun 12)

  
  Flirtations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Flirtations (previously The Gypsies) were an all-female musical group who recorded from the early 1960s through the late 1980s.
That year, now on Josie records, the four women redubbed themselves the Flirtations and released the classic Northern Soul song "Change My Darkness Into Light." Despite it being a great ballard (unlike the forgettable B-side "Natural Born Lover"), it was ignored by DJ's and taken for granted in sales.
The rest of their singles were not released in the U.S. Throughout the seventies they released classics on various labels like "Little Darling (I Need You)" and "Take Me In Your Arms (and Love Me)" and "Hold on to me Babe" and "Love A Little Longer" on Polydor in 1971 and 1972.

 Whig - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
While Fox and some younger members of the party such as Charles Grey and Richard Brinsley Sheridan were sympathetic to the French revolutionaries, others, and especially Edmund Burke, quickly became virulently opposed.
Although Burke himself was largely alone in defecting to Pitt in 1791, much of the rest of the party, including the influential House of Lords leader the Duke of Portland, Rockingham's nephew Lord Fitzwilliam, and William Windham, were increasingly uncomfortable with the flirtations of Fox and his allies with radicalism and the French Revolution.
In early 1793 they split with Fox over the question of support for the war with France, and by the end of the year they had openly broken with Fox.

The Flirtations were one of the more active all-girl R&B groups of the mid to late 60’s though they had to go pretty far from home to find their most lasting success.
They changed their name to the Flirtations in 1965 and they were signed to Josie Records that year.
In 1967 the Flirtations were in England where they found a fresh start as both a performing and recording act.

 The Union Leader and New Hampshire Sunday News - 12-Feb-06 - George F. Will:
Flirtations with fanaticism could prove ...
  (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
By GEORGE F., like a wreck by the side of the road, Cindy Sheehan, a plaything of her own sincerities and other peoples’ opportunisms, has already been largely erased from the national memory by new waves of media fickleness in the service of the public’s summer ennui.
Evidently, yes, judging by the attendance of 12 Democratic senators at that movie’s Washington premiere in June 2004, and by the lionizing of Moore at the Democratic Convention — the ovation, the seating of him with Jimmy Carter.
If liberals think that such flirtations with fanaticism had nothing to do with their 2004 defeat, they probably have nothing to learn from what conservatives did four decades earlier.

 Michael Callen left an unfinished legacy
Chatting with him backstage, I expressed embarrassment at the Gay Men's Chorus having sung his "Love Don't Need a Reason" on the Ellipse that evening only to be upstaged by his peerless solo rendition later at the Lincoln Memorial.
I came upon a poster advertising an upcoming Flirtations concert, and saw for the first time a photo of the Flirts without Michael.
The many benefit concerts for SMYAL that the Flirtations did over the years were never through until Michael sang the solo in their rendition of Fred Small's Gay-affirming lullaby, "Everything Possible."

 The Flirtations
fans are used to performers taking them across geographical boundaries, but The Flirtations use the original musical instrument -- the human voice -- to also cross sexual orientation boundaries.
Lest the more mainstream audience members pack up before the journey, be prepared for generous amounts of humour and singing talent.
And no less a venerable institution than The Los Angeles Times reports that the Flirtations "performed without a whisper of guile or pretense.

The FLIRTATIONS (Jon Arterton, Michael Callen, Aurelio Font, TJ Myers, and Cliff Townsend) were an openly-gay acapella quartet in 1990 when they released this album, and it is a charming but uneven effort.
I thought I wouldn't enjoy it because I don't ever listen to a capella, but they are all so talented that I'm sure instruments would take away from their great sound.
The Flirtations should also be hailed for their activism and their ability to mix humor with serious social messages.

"The Saint" could more appropriately be called "The Tease," with the first two-thirds of this nearly two-hour movie devoted to flirtations and brief sexual encounters between Val Kilmer and Elisabeth Shue.
That's an odd strategy for a movie about a gentleman thief most moviegoers will remember as a James Bond character played by Roger Moore in the popular 1960s British TV series.

 Hay In Art
The phrase “roll in the hay” is widely understood as a euphemism for making out (or making love), even by those who wouldn’t dream of exposing citified skin to our scratchy rural material.
This essay will explore such rolls, from the early 16th century to the 1990s, from a drawing by Altdorfer to eighteenth century naughtiness of Rowlandson and Fragonard, from gentle Victorian flirtations to pinup publicity photographs of Jane Russell and Raquel Welch.
Through the middle of the twentieth century, in Devonshire, there was "a custom that each new rick of hay should be slept on by a young man and a girl, in order to ensure that the hay would prove sweet, and the fiancée pregnant."
