This guy, I remember it kept Ultravox off the top of the charts at the time

The Time Warp

My wife has banned it in the house, the car and the bedroom. I'm not sure what her problem is , It's just a jump to the left and then a step to the right
With your hands on your hips, you bring your knees in tight.

Kinky.

Fun Fact: the guy who wrote the lyrics for that also wrote the lyrics for The Smurf Song.

Which 70's pop group had songs about:

The Babylonian captivity of the Israelites
The politics of early 20th Russia
The troubles in Northern Ireland?

Yep. Here's the one about Russia

I was finding my own music taste around 2000, I was drawn to the likes of Limp Bizkit,Korn,Linkin Park etc. I still like Limp Bizkits chocolate starfish and hot dog flavored water album

I listened to a few tunes off that album recently enough. I can not believe that there was ever a time that I thought that music was good.

Fred Durst is just the worst front man of all time. His lyrics are unbelievably dumb, even 14 year old me knew it at some level. I think the rest of the band were actually pretty okay as musicians, but everything gets ruined by Fred's presence. I can put up with Break Stuff because it's so dumb that it's borderline genius - and there is still a weirdly ferocious power to the "GIMME ME SOMETHING TO BREAK" part.

But LB were just the gateway drug for me, once I started listening to other bands they were done. Everyone had more to offer than LB. When I started listening to stuff like this instead there was no coming back -

Very few bands of that era have aged well. SOAD maybe? Though it's coming up on 20 years since it's heyday so a revival is probably imminent.
