Bad Hair Day is back with more

Written by tevensso on April 21, 2006 to .

STOCKHOLM - From out of nowhere, Bad Hair Day is back. This time around a The Lonely Boys song is released - “Keep the Radio On (This is the Perfect Song)” or as Per says himself; “The song itself was written for Gyllene Tider back in 1980 (called ’Gå hem innan du lägger dej’ which means something like ’Go Home Before You Go to Bed’…) but GT never used it. Mainly because of the terrible Swedish lyrics if I remember the history right. However, it was recorded by the Lonely Boys for the LB album but I’m sure y’all heard that! And just recently it became rejected once more when we mixed the SOAP album. That version didn’t really make me tick!”

  Per also reveals that the next SOAP single will be out in Sweden soon; “I Like it Like That” with a b-side named “Plumber in Progress #2”.

Hey I’m not exactly jumping with joy to hear that there’ll b a second Plumber in progress... it’s cute but a couple o’ remixes of Carousel (or an extended version on this on), MLOER, ILILT would REALLY be appreciated!!

SOAP.com says: “Keep The Radio On (This Is The Perfect Song) (5 jul 05)”
But it´s the 1995 demo. Guess people will get confused :s

The LB original version and this demo are the best versions of this LB song.

Guitars are nice!

Take care!

There’s no doubt about it, that guy is a pro (hoping you reading this, Per)! In fact, I truly believe that demo sounds better than the two “final versions” of that song! :)

Thanks to Per: this is a great and generous idea to release these free demos on your website. It’s really appreciate and it helps us to wait for your next album!

As a matter of fact, what happens with the “supposed release” of SOAP in Canada?
