Aldo Nova - Fantasy


Well then it was Friday again, today I will share with you a real classic, we do a flashback to the year 1982. This was the year that Aldo Nova debuted with the album, Aldo Nova and had a big hit with the single "Fantasy. He was also known for the song "Monkey On Your Back" from the album "Subject ... Aldo Nova". But after the fiasco of the third album "Twitch" (which became an unexpected success in Sweden), Aldo Nova put his music industry on the shelf. Six years later he returned with the album "Blood on the Bricks" in which he wrote most of the songs with Jon Bon Jovi. The record was no further success and Aldo Nova stopped completely as a solo performer. In recent years have Aldo Nova worked as a songwriter and with some success, he have done some hit songs for Celine Dion and Clay Aiken.


In 2010, planned a comeback album, entitled "Too Much Sex". His first concert would have been at the Sweden Rock Festival, but the concert was canceled due that he is recovering from a very serious surgery and was not allowed to perform as it could danger the healing process. But since Aldo Nova himself had been looking forward to the gig he promised to return to the festival in 2011 instead, we'll see what happens with it, nothing is confirmed yet, it would be fun for both him and the fans to see him perform again.




Todays tune "Fantasy" is the first single from Aldo Nova and is regarded as his most popular work to date. Released on his eponymous debut album in 1981. Check out the video, love the outfit he has, somewhat reminiscent of a Finnish car seat. Enjoy!



A cover version of the song, performed by Steel Panther, is the current theme song for the MTV show Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory. The cover by Steel Panther is now currently available as a download on iTunes.
