    Then they played Parachute, which I absolutely maitain is one of the best (if not the best) Irish songs ever written.

    As well as 'Mary' by The Four Of Us, and 'Celebrate' by An Emotional Fish :)

    I wonder what your average brit was thinking at the time????

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    How did they rank these videos?

    From something like Video Jukebox plays or did they just make up a list?

    Judging by that episode which was mostly 'filler', I'd say they showed the whole of 'Thriller'.




    Followed by The Flying Pickets. :D

    Ah, That should say RTE1 not BBC2. Thanks.

    Edit: I must start checking these channels more carefully!

    Good song though.

    Jed couldn't make it to Paris - airport security wouldn't let him take his mental chains onto the plane.

    But I do know this song.
    Howard Jones' expanding budget for videos takes him to Paris for "What Is Love".

    How Welsh is this double act?

    The answer is none more Welsh.
