    The lad with the green jacket and the piece that went over the hand - all my best dresses I had did that with the (naturally black) lace, it was mega "cool"......

    I've always wondered what a "carefully designed topless swimsuit " looked like.

    Was it a bikini with the top carefully removed?
    Was it a one piece with the front bit carefully removed?

    Maybe I overthink these things.

    STREETS OF LONDON!

    Maybe a one hit wonder technically but his song"From Clare to here" should also be mentioned as a classic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,710 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    I've said it before, and I'll say it again...

    How can anyone NOT like '99 Red Balloons'?

    Humanly impossible.

    Humanly impossible.

    Apparently nena was not happy with the English translation.

    But I think that the lines

    "..it's all over and I'm standing pretty
    in this dust that was a city."

    are immensely moving in the context of a pop song. Plus the context of the times, when we did come very close to nuclear war (for more on this look up exercise Able Archer on Wikipedia).

    Musical Youth are on my screen, but they're not performing 'Pass The Dutchie'. :D

    The surviving members are likely happy, as at least they might get some royalties from song what's not Pass the Dutchie..

    On a puff puff pass tip, did anyone see the stoner dolphins passing the blowfish on de left hand side on Spy in the Wild last night?

    The fish is highly toxic, but in small doses, the poison has a narcotic, perhaps deliriant effect :8

    In the vicinity of the topic, he's also appearing in The EMI Story, which I'm watching for the first time on BBC4 :)

    You know you're getting old when you tune straight to Vintage TV and avoid all the other music channels :D

    Although, I've noticed the Irish Country Music Channel has gone...'twas a passing fad :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,618 ✭✭✭✭Oscar Bravo


    this EMI program on BBC4 now is quite good
