Western songs you want to listen to in the morning: BGM for the breakfast table (61–70)
(Forever) Live And DieOrchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark
Included on the 1986 album “The Pacific Age.” A four-piece electropop band from the UK formed in 1978.
With a clear, mid-tempo drum-and-bass rhythm and the pop, gentle melodies of electropop-style synthesizers, this track is the kind that lifts your spirits.
Oh SheilaReady For The World
Included on the 1985 album “Ready for the World.” A six-member music group from Michigan that debuted in 1984.
The song gained attention as a number dedicated to Sheila E, an American female musician who was active at the time.
It’s a track characterized by an up-tempo, danceable melody.
Walkin’ On The SunSmash Mouth
Included on the 1997 album “Fush Yu Mang.” A five-piece punk band from California formed in 1995.
With vocals delivered in a rap-like style over a moody, mature, jazz-tinged melody, the track doesn’t sound like something you’d expect from a punk band, and I think that in itself is pretty cool.
Manic MondayThe Bangles
Included on the 1986 album “Different Light.” A three-piece rock band from Los Angeles formed in 1981.
Set to a mid-tempo groove with a poppy, catchy melody line, it’s a number that sings, “I wish it were Sunday.” Give it a listen and let it fire you up with the feeling that we’re all in the same boat.
You Might ThinkThe Cars
Included on the 1984 album Heartbeat City.
A five-member rock band from Boston formed in 1976.
The distinctive vocals, sung over an upbeat, lively rhythm and an extremely poppy, catchy melody, make for a light, buoyant listening experience.
Don’t Disturb This GrooveThe System
The title track from the 1987 album “Don’t Disturb This Groove.” A synth-pop duo from New York State formed in 1982.
It’s a mid-tempo number with a light, steadily moving rhythm and a pop ballad melody carried by synthesizers, featuring emotive vocals that are pleasing to the ear.
Beautiful DayU2
Included on the 2000 album “All That You Can’t Leave Behind.” A four-piece rock band from Dublin formed in 1976.
The mid-tempo, lively drum rhythm unfolds steadily, and the melody—calm at first, then surging in the chorus—leaves a memorable impression.
Bono’s vocals are, as always, charismatic and cool.
