"Psssssssst, come on, turn it up
Ho, turn it up
Come on, turn it LOUD!"
In 1982 and 1983 the Headpins ruled the Canadian music charts for awhile. The amazing vocals of Darby Mills streaked through the airwaves like nothing anyone had ever heard before. The album Turn It Loud says it all. Great classic songs include, Don't It Make You Feel, Don't You Ever Leave Me, People, You Can't Have Me, Winnin', Mine All Mine, Feel It (Feel My Body), Celebration, Keep Walkin' Away, and of course Turn It Loud. Headpins still tour and are on my list of bands i still must see live.
Update: I went to my first Headpins concert last night and i wasn't disappointed. Not everyone can do what Darby Mills does. I don't know how she can still hit those high extended notes after all these years. The distinctive guitar riffs that we remember from the albums sounded great too, just as expected.
"Don't wanna hear the back bar sound
Just wanna hear the bass thump loud
Here come the band right across the stage
Oh just one thing gonna start to play
I wanna hear the guitar sound
Just wanna hear the band play loud"
