    I twiddled the knobs and found BBC2 HD

    I thought Too much too little too late was an original SilverSun song. Ah well.

    They sing "De Reflex", because the cheeky buggers lived in Dublin at the time (on a tax dodge), and thought the accent was funny.

    De bleedin cheek of 'em.

    See what happens when Scotland try to break away?

    Regional variations go cockadeehoop!

    Used to be a big fan of Silver Sun, still have the albums somewhere!

    Lots of eye candy for The Mixtures :D

    Did I spot Jimmy Saville sneaking into the shot there.

    Forget I said anything, The Daily Mail will demand all TOTPs are deleted in case it ever happens again.

    Bizarre...I've never listened to this and thought of 'The Air That I Breathe'.

    They had some kicking tunes, they were always popping up on TOTP, TFI and CD UK. I love 'I'll See You Around'

    I wonder if anyone is Scotland is thinking "Och, I'm really not sure about this referendum, but seeing as David Bowie asked us to say, I'd better vote Nae"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,722 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    MONKEH!

    Amateurs! Amateurs!

    I loved seeing them live in 2012. I thought it would never happen.

    I felt like I had The Moon On a Stick.

    Conspiracy theory time!

    Some say they fixed it to screw up on purpose, due to the way they had been treated by the crew during the day :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,722 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    Ha!

    First heard this song on a 'Grand Theft Auto' compilation :O


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,444 ✭✭✭✭Skid X


    Kate Bush is a class act. You could take so many of her songs and they are miles ahead of anything you would hear on the radio these days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,722 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    This may be from the 80's


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,722 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    A robot! Awesome!

    Imagine being in the TOTP audience to watch that? It must be up there with being a regular in The Cavern or being at The Sex Pistols first gig.

    But then the Robot self-destructed on the Bill Grundy show and it was all over.

    RIP Rah Band :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,722 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    Chilly up there in the rafters by the look of it :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,444 ✭✭✭✭Skid X


    Tina Charles must watch this and think - how did the Rah Band singer get a nice dress and a glitterball?

    Most unglamorous Disco shot there ever, very odd.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,722 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    The Edge with hair :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,722 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    Never remotely been a fan of U2, but this is a good song - a predict a bright future for them :)

    Call me your fairy ROCKmother, Donie!

    :cool:

    Just finished watching this excellent 'Arena' documentary from 1989 about heavy metal (in 6 parts on de yoo tobe)



    Contains Bruce Dickinson's guide to codpieces :D

    Thanks, dude! I'll give that a go alright!
