"Girls On Film" - monkeyfudge the nipple/icecube scene was probably your fav part of the video
- remember when they used to play it on Satelite Jutebox the whole time.
"Sledgehammer (Peter Gabriel, 1985)" - swarfboy that video was excellent.
Another early nineties video I loved was Betty Boo Just Doing the Doo.
Also The Cure - Close to You (Robert Smith in the wardrobe).0 -

Thought they were all so cool! They had tans and were pilots.....
I'm still standing - Elton John
Stand & Deliver - Adam Ant
Cyndi Lauper - Girls just Wanna have fun
Tears for Fears - Seeds of Love
All Madonna Videos - remember seeing Like a Virgin on TOTP...was completely hooked......
Queen - The video where they all dressed up as women...????
Great choices too Sancoo - how could I have forgotten Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!
Madonna was just brilliant - I was hooked too. I remember making up dance routines to her songs. Had all her tapes. She was def my idol when I was a child. I even had the fingerless gloves
.
The Queen video was "I Want To Break Free" and that video was great. Eircom did their own version of that video for their new phone a while back. Queen were an excellent band. "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" and "Bohemian Rhapsody" to name a few of their songs.
I'm a sucker for all the eighties songs/videos - watch VH1 the whole time.
Wham - like all girls I loved them too. Best song is "Last Christmas". Remember Pepsi and Shirly in their videos.0 -

We would spend hours doing routines to Madonna songs too....I remember one cringeworthy effort to Into the Groove.....
Other favourite's have to be the Michael Jackson videos. Billie Jean, Thriller (remember seeing that for the first time on Anything Goes or Action Station Saturday, we hid behind the couch), Beat It.
I loved the 80's it helped that one of my Aunts was in her early 20's so she 'taped' a heap of songs for me and I had a loan of her taperecorder.....

Aw remember the aul taping the songs with the double cassettes. I also remember taping the songs from the radio and trying not to get the dj talking at the end.
My Madonna song was Material Girl - "Some boys kiss me....." cringeworthty too. I taught my dance to my cousins - say I was eleven and they were around four or five and they still do my dance at family parties.
Even more cringeworthy for me was I was a Brosette - had the shoes with the smiley faces on them! 0 -

All the michael Jackson videos were great, Thriller and Billie Jean (where everything he touched lit up) were the best of them.
there was one thing better than taping songs off the radio though, and you were well made if you taped them on video off MTUSA, music box and Sky Trax.
of course betamax video recorders are next to impossible to find nowadays,

It was the Sunday 24th November 1991. Of all the things I've forgotten - things that I have no excuse to forget - this has always remained with me. I still miss Freddie
But putting Queen aside for a moment (because I'm terribly biased), A-Ah Take on Me, and Dire Straits - Money for Nothing (them fangled computer graphics) are my most prominant memory of 80s videos. I remember a lot of songs, but those are the videos that stick out in my mind.

Was anyone watching VHI's Worst dressed videos last night.
The winner (loser) was Take That and Do What YOu Like. Didn't think it was too bad seeing Robbie Williams in cycling shorts
Cher and If I Could Turn Back Time was in there too - had forgotten all about that video - she had some nerve though in that outfit. The song itself was really good.0 -

Hi Climaxer
I missed that! I was watching Wade Robson's Shakedown marathon on MTV!
I remember the Take that video and you are sooooooo right! Robbie in shorts of any kind is not a bad thing! Yum yum!
In the Cher video, can't you just see the pools of drool on the deck! Brings new meaning to 'Swab the deck'!! 0
