Squeeze – The Artist

Squeeze are a British rock band that came to prominence in the United Kingdom during the new wave period of the late 1970s, and continued recording in the 1980s and 1990s. In the UK, their songs “Cool for Cats”, “Up the Junction” and “Labelled with Love” were top ten chart hits. Though not as commercially successful in the United States, Squeeze had American hits with “Tempted”, “Hourglass” and “853-5937”, and were considered a part of the Second British Invasion. The vast majority of their material is composed of lyrics by Chris Difford and music by Glenn Tilbrook who are guitarists and vocalists in the band. The duo were hailed as “the heirs to Lennon and McCartney’s throne” during their peak of popularity in the late 1970s. The group formed in Deptford, London, in 1974, and first broke up in 1982. Squeeze then reformed in 1985, and disbanded again in 1999.

Take Me I’m Yours – The Song

‘Take Me I’m Yours’ is the debut single by English new wave band Squeeze. It established the band’s trademark vocal style, with Chris Difford singing an octave lower than Glenn Tilbrook. Lyrically, the song features images of exotic locations and travels. Difford was inspired to write these lyrics after visiting the home of the band’s manager, Miles Copeland.

The Body Builder – The Shape

This record has been modelled into a body builder as inspired by the records picture sleeve and record label.

Bodybuilding is the practice of progressive resistance exercise to build, control, and develop one’s muscles via hypertrophy. An individual who engages in this activity is referred to as a bodybuilder. It is primarily undertaken for aesthetic purposes over functional ones, distinguishing it from similar activities such as powerlifting and calisthenics. In competitive bodybuilding, competitors appear onstage in line-ups and perform specified poses (and later individual posing routines) for a panel of judges who rank them based on conditioning, muscularity, posing, size, stage presentation, and symmetry. Bodybuilders prepare for competitions by exercising and eliminating non-essential body fat. This is enhanced at the final stage by a combination of carbohydrate loading and dehydration to achieve maximum muscle definition and vascularity. Most bodybuilders also tan and shave their bodies prior to competition.
