Zolar X - Space Age Love (1982)

In honor of May The Fourth,

I watched part of the original Star Wars flick. It's iconic. It's great. I love it. Empire is my favorite but the original three all are classics. I had the action figures as a kid with my own movies in head. I don't care to speak on the films and whatnot that came after that. If you like them, fine.

I've already posted Meco's mesmerizing Empire Strikes Back Medley from 1980 and I'll just put the link right here if you want some funky Star Wars.

But as per usual we are going with something different. LA alien glam punk superstars - Zolar X. They dressed in silver costumes and apparently spoke an alien language they made up even when they were off stage but luckily they decided to sing this song in the English language because that's the main one I know.

It's hard to pinpoint the release date on this. They had a release of about ten 45s they sent to record labels listed as 1974. I don't know if that's the same version released here, which is definitely 1982. Then again, the album is called Timeless and I'm not totally familiar with alien time. It's possible it was released in the year x4T0-5 and I'm not pursuing that any further at the moment.

That guitar sound blows me away and there's all types of bloops and bleeps and I just love that. Lyrics are below. Now click on the video and "ZAP! YOU'RE ZOLARIZED!" 

  

 

 

Well, we don’t give a Zam what your TV’s say
We’re out in space light years away
Far from you’re earth and its moon above
Ready to ignite Space Age Love
[Our Retro’s Hot!]

With kinetic powered thoughts from our satellites
We’re the faces that you see in your dreams at night
You’ll love the zip zap zam of our Zolar guns
And the star stellar thrills of Space Age fun
[Supersonic!] [Go-go-go Rocket Roll]

We can take you on an orbit of our pink playground
You’ll love the sputnik spin of our Zolar Go-Round
We can stop on Zic-con Zoo for a soda fizz
And beam you home by 9:00 before your parents’ quiz
[Fly us cosmic lovers!] [Up we go]

Well, you may not like our powered hills or pointed hair
So, we’ll steal you out in secret leaving them a spare
I mean why act prehistoric. Don’t be so square!
Through teleport you’ll be with us and still be there!
Humans are fun! You know some people think we look kind of crazy,
That’s ridiculous!
Because I mean after all we think all of you look astronomical.
Zap your Zolarized!
