Two Tribes still sounds stands up well considering it's 23 years old.
Bass player seems a bit redundant as that is surely synth bass.
But what is more redundant is Holly has yellow swimming goggles round his neck.
Is that for wearing to naked group hug foam parties at the nightclubs he went to ?
And now it's "Divine". Looks like how I imagine a couple forumites would doing karaoke

Yes I immediately realised it was 33 but for some reason the post took minutes to appear before I could edit it ? does that happen to other people?
So I went and did something else more useful than post on chit chat. Turns out it's quite a long list  |

By edit I mean correct it.

was the first time Prince had been on UK TV i expect

By:
HOP, it was on bbc 4. If you like 80s music keep an eye out for them on that channel, they seem to be playing all the TOTPS from the 80s, the full episodes not just compilations so it's good to hear rare stuff not just the well known 80s hits. it's up uo 1984 now but I'm sure they did 82,83 etc before that.
They had flock of seagulls on - surely a contender for "best band of our lifetime". And also originator of Trumps hairstyle! |

IT's now got another program on and they've had two songs on by Harry Styles, have to say if I wasn't already prejudiced I'd like it. So trying to be objective .. he's been pretty good. Both covers I think, currently break the chain by .. fleetwood mac wasn't it, and a good cover.

I bought Welcome to the pleasuredome on vinyl for £3 at a bootfair in Battersea two years ago plus Two tribes 12" plus Carmen Jones Vinyl plus Natureboy 12" by Central line for next to nix, shekels.
I have stated on here several times that I don't believe in God but now I am not so sure! |

By:
Where did I see flock of seagulls, must've been back to back episodes or a different episode?. Definitely seen them as I kept noticing he had what looked like a broken nose that I'd not noticed before and his hair had a bit less hairspray than normal.

Watched this episode yesterday , take out the Divine rubbish , leaving the best episode I have seen them show for a long time.
|
|
By:
They started these repeats at 1976. I always watch them but quite a lot are missed out if Jimmy Saville,DLT or Mike Smith presented them.
|
|
By:
I'm sure Divine ,Hazel Dean and that Hi Energy record all use the same backing track
|
|
By:
What did Mike Smith do to deserve an airbrush?
|
|
By:
I knew someone would ask that. He asked the BBC not to show his episodes. Although he is now dead,his estate have asked that his wishes are still kept. I don't know why he didn't want them to be shown.

By:
A little trivia for you pop pickers, the new age keyboard futuristic sounding music they play during the chart countdown is, unless you knew it, by probably the last person you'd expect. It's the Thin Lizzy singer/bassists "Yellow Peril" from his solo career.

I use to pal about with Phil.

, no proberly didn't want any links with saville |

if you watch all the TOTPs you'll notice people becoming fatter. No real porkers in this one but not so skinny as some of the earlier ones.

By:
brassneck used to pal about with the great Mr Lynott, is this a wind up?
Where was that, Dooblin or London? |
|
By:
I had Now 1, Now 2, Now 3 all on Vinyl. My old man sold them all at a car boot sale for next to nothing. Culture club, Duran Duran. Depeche Mode, Frankie, Men down under etc. Absolutely gutted.
The first record I bought as a single was Stevie Wonder, I just called to say I love you. |
|
By:
First record I bought was 7" Bohemian Rhapsody on vinyl. Had it years and heard originals going at auction for about £7k or something? Searched high and low but vanished!

It is not just the fatties who are eating bad food. We are all eating bad food. The stuff we get these days is appalling and we are sleep walking into this. We are all getting fatter just the fatties God bless them are eating more bad food than the rest of us! |
