1. Keith (born James Barry K… Read Full Bio ↴There are multiple artists named Keith:
1. Keith (born James Barry Keefer)
Keith (born James Barry Keefer) was a U.S. vocalist and one-hit wonder. His first record deal with Columbia Records resulted in the 1966 single, "Caravan of Lonely Men" credited to Keith & the Admirations. Keith then moved to Mercury Records and released his solo debut, "Ain't Gonna Lie."
He is best remembered for the hit "98.6".
His second LP, 1968's "Out of Crank" failed to create public interest. The nadir came when U.S. Army officials nabbed him for draft evasion in the middle of a concert tour. He was inducted and stationed for a year in New Jersey. When he got out, Keith did some independent recording and joined Frank Zappa's 1973 touring band.
Keith recorded one last album, for RCA Records, with no luck, and then left the music business until 1986, when an attempted comeback under his real name proved unsuccessful. He also set up A.I.R. Records and produced albums for several local bands. In the 1990s the singer moved into the television industry, although he continues to play live dates.
2. KEITH
Oli Bayston – Vocals, Keys,
John Waddington – Bass
Johnny Winbolt-Lewis - Drums
Mark Nicholls - Guitar
KEITH – Not one, but four lads from four parts of England (Essex, Ealing, Shrewsbury and Leeds) meeting in (Greater) Manchester on a music course. Four headstrong characters, with wildly different musical roots, these guys are keen for their ideas & instruments to complement each other & so a strong democracy of songs prevail.
‘We don't see a problem with having a broad sound,’ says frontman Oli Bayston. ‘In fact, we see it as a benefit.’ Born into classical musicianship, while the oblique, brooding lyrics he sings examine the layers in relationships, both personal & sometimes political, he speaks more of Manchester’s Acid House heritage than the Stone Roses, any band similarities based more on their unwillingness to be part of any geographically based scene.
Bassist John Waddington, for several years a teenage techno dj, inspired by free hardcore barn parties in Shropshire, designs all the bands artwork himself and thus strengthens the band’s identity in his graphic art alter-ego “Wadders”.
Drummer Johnny Winbolt-Lewis seems to possess the drive for musicianship that took his dad to represent the UK in the Mexico Olympics. He obsessively absorbs & spits out music, a regular gig-goer turning other drummers onto Afrobeat legend Tony Allen, practising religiously, & watching obscure videos of Can, or DJs Cut Chemist & Numark “Keeping Time” with classic funky drummers : “it’s looking for the feel & listening for what’s going’ on around you rather than just studying the music. You hear it with the big bands like Radiohead & Blur, they’ve got a more simple, spacious feel”.
Guitarist Mark Nicholls, combines an ear for the classic song with echoes of African hi-life on current single ‘Back There’, or Eno’s avant garde textures on ‘The Miller’.
3. Keith
Based in Murfreesboro, TN, Hudson M. makes bad music on a 8-track cassette recorder that was purchased from the Facebook Marketplace.
4. Keith (of Keith & Tex)
Keith & Tex are the Jamaican rocksteady duo of Keith Rowe and Phillip Texas Dixon, best known for their 1967 hit "Stop That Train".

Keith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That don't make me a bad guy
Don't scar my resume
Don't you give me a black eye
Judgin' by my day-to-day
He's in love with a heart-to-key
Better dance on the wild side
I'm only good as I gotta be
She's got whisk in a paper cup
Catch a buzz and a supper-up
Comin' down with a pot of joe
Just leave it off and away I go
Runnin' hard where the money's gone
Happy day and all night long
Get a girl with my Romeo
You know it's wild and it's adios
[Chorus]
Act like a man, I go to work
Feel clean in my dirty shirt
Ain't got a lot, but I really try
I've got it good and I'm gettin' by
Yeah, I sought in my daddy's name
Bet momma's proud and everything
When it's time to make some noise
Boys will be boys
[Chorus]
Billin' or an outlaw
I might kiss you girl
And catch you with a south pawn and
Dangers us the tamer is, maybe
We're just lookin' for a real good time
Yeah, a real good time
Yeah!
Yeah, that don't make me a bad guy
Don't scar my resume
Don't give me a black eye
Call me some kind of regamade
He's in love and heart-to-key
Better dance on the wild side
I'm only good as I gotta be
That don't make me a bad guy
I'm only good as I gotta be
That don't make me a bad guy
In Keith's song "Forget That Guy," the lyrics convey a sense of defiance and self-assurance. The chorus declares that despite engaging in certain behaviors or living life on the wild side, it does not make the singer a bad person. The line "Don't scar my resume" suggests that the singer's experiences and actions should not be used to judge their character or worthiness. They refuse to let anyone give them a "black eye," implying that they won't allow others to tarnish their reputation. Instead, they embrace their individuality and live life according to their own terms. The line "He's in love with a heart-to-key" suggests a passionate and spontaneous nature, someone who embraces excitement and lives in the moment. Ultimately, the song emphasizes the importance of being true to oneself and not conforming to societal expectations or judgments.

I have used hypnosis for 30 years. I am sure this is genuine as I have done this myself. But I can almost certainly assure you that this guy was pre-hypnotized and responding to a post hypnotic routine.

I feel that Barry should have went one step further and switched the names from Owners to the dogs and visa-versa, I'm sure you get the picture.....To me, that would be something.

It's real all right! I did it to my friend at a slumber party and she forgot basically everything i told her to forget. It's WEIRD.

@wfw2001 well, i probably dont know what i'm talking about either, but it seems you is calming the guy, then confusing his subliminal state by random hand movements. that puts him into a trance, and keith can now suggest what he wishes and the guy's subliminal mind complies. and at 0:28, you can him falling or stumbling forward, which makes me think he was almost put into some sort of hypnotic sleep had it not been for the instant snap right afterward. he remembers his name when keith snaps
chrisikoholic
but if u dont realize that u've been hypnotized u surely dont remember looks pretty real to me, this guy was creeped out :)
