Saw Haircut100 at Bradford University at that time. They were excellent.

Alun- you obviously didn't receive my cheque for 2 large to encourage you NOT to divulge my past. The records we made were never released-THEY ESCAPED! Ahh memories of the 80s- the groupies, the drugs, the alcohol- and just about everything else in which I did not partake!

The 80s had worse songs than that. Are you mentally blocking out "Haysi Fantayzee"?

Joining this thread late, just listened to this.
Seems a blatant rip off, of Bowie's 'Cat People (Putting Out Fire)' from 'Let's Dance' Bowie's song was used to great effect in 'Inglorious Basterds' as the cinema was being prepared for the Nazi 'welcome' |

rockwell is michael jackson innit, i always liked it, hey ho Rockwell wasn't actually Michael Jackson. Rockwell was Kennedy William Gordy and Jacko featured on his single "Sombody's Watching Me" along with brother Jermaine (who was on backing vocals). |
|
By:
yeah, i was meaning the single, not the band
jacko was in dispute with record label and denied he was the singer for years gordy was one of jackos few childhood friends, |

who gave POD air time - who decided it should be released - who bought it - did anyone actually buy ity - it's like wtf ? atleast songs like the Skye boat song /shaddup/ Birdie song / ..like Grandma etc were bought by their target audience

Rockwell /watching you .. was a good single though

I'd forgotten all about this song, but now I can remember it. I'm sure I didn't think it was that bad at the time. Now of course, it sounds awful, like a lot of the 80s stuff it doesn't age well.
But seriously, this is tip of the iceberg stuff, there's so much more, a lot worse than this one. |

Gordy was son of the big boss of motown,could call that a helping hand

you may find this impossible but think i've found an equally bad single from the 80s. its got the same features as politics of dancing, s hite lyrics, tuneless, and a very poor bad image.
ladies and gentlemen i give you- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofL-ePVAshs think they were from carlisle |
he obtained his recording contract without his Father's knowledge to avoid nepotism etc.
