Anyone got. Bbc4 on? He was so hot id have done anything to be Amanda de Cadenet. Well, who’d have thought Simon has ended up being the most fanciable. I hated The Reflex btw.

Did anyone see the Bros documentary? I wasn't a fan but by gosh Luke Goss is a handsome man nowBlush

I'm in the US so I couldn't see the DD documentary but I do follow them on social media.

JT still does it for me after all these years. There's something very open and honest about him and he's still a good laugh so he's still fanciable to me.

Roger was gorgeous back in the day but whoa, I didn't think it was possible to be more attractive after so many years.

I was never a fan of Simon because I just thought he was not a great singer and yes, "The Reflex" was crap.

I'm glad someone mentioned the gorgeousness of the "silver fox", Martin Kemp. It truly astounds me that he just gets better with age.

David Sylvian has such a rich, deep voice that completely mesmerizes me and leaves me speechless with it's beauty. His writing is sublime ("After the Bullfight" and "Orpheus", etc...) and he was definitely easy on the eyes but I was always a bigger fan of his younger brother, Steve Jansen.
I'm so glad that I've seen the appreciation for Steve on this thread because I just absolutely love him. It's a love for the ages. Lol

Marti Pellow from the Wets has still got it!

TellySavalashairbrush · 24/03/2019 10:41

Morten Harket is still gorgeous. Mark shaw from Then Jericho has not aged well though imo.

Gatekeeper · 24/03/2019 10:42

Blimey

Gary Davies looks fab now...I remember his jingle on radio one. 'Ooh, Gary Davies, ooh Gary Davies, ooh Gary Davies, OOH'
Ooh indeed Grin

Oh, I listen to Gary Davies' Sounds of the 80s on Fridays for the nostalgia.

The Reflex is about Nick Rhodes and his contribution to the band.

brizzlemint · 24/03/2019 12:23

Where's Sparklingbrook when there's a live John Taylor thread running? grin

Haha, I came on to see what she'd said. I think she's moved on from JT.

brizzlemint · 24/03/2019 12:25

Having googled, no wonder Sparklingbrook has moved on Grin

John Taylor what happened to you?
BGD2012 · 24/03/2019 12:28

As a teenager I loved John Taylor but looking back at old pictures I can't see the fuss .
Morten and Mags from AHA still look good.
I saw Phil Oakey (Human League) live recently and he looks very, very good for a 63 year old.

Tunnockswafer · 24/03/2019 12:53

sackrifice what I want to know is, what did you talk to Nick about? I can’t imagine him talking about “normal” things!!

There was nothing normal about that night. Nothing whatsoever.

kalinkafoxtrot45 · 24/03/2019 13:24

I am so jealous. Nick was my favourite.

EachandEveryone · 24/03/2019 13:30

Another Steve Jansen fan here.
Had my hair like his in the Japan days, he is still hot as hell.

MutantDisco · 24/03/2019 13:33

My friend bumped into JT at work (retail), said he was a lovely bloke.

BGD2012 · 24/03/2019 14:33

MyGastIsFlabbered · 24/03/2019 16:58

Martin Kemp really has it now...I never saw it back in the 80s though.

BertBox · 24/03/2019 17:06

Martin Kemp is just bloody gorgeous. Lucky Shirley.
