With the single “Back In The Days” from the current album “The Big Easy”, John Diva & The Rockets of Love start the year 2024.
A new year, a new song, a perfect radio hit. A melancholy hymn to youth, to a long-lost love and to the unshakeable loyalty to an oath that was almost forgotten in everyday adult life – but only almost …
“Back In The Days” is (of course) a tribute to the music of the eighties, even if the sound and vocals are produced in a much more modern way than the 80s fans of the Rockets might be used to. Rather, it is the lyrics with which John Diva dives deep into the most popular decade of all time to move upstream like a fish in water.
»Remember eighty something …« it says at the beginning of every verse. Remember yourself! And indeed, everyone has colorful memories of that decade, whether you were there or not. It seems almost impossible to distinguish your own memory from the cliché – or from a story that perhaps everyone (or your big brother)has told or experienced.
