To support Relax (Frankie Goes to Hollywood) against UKIP?

[ArsenicChaseScream]

And keep Mike Read off the top of the charts this weekend?

I've seen tweets directly to Holly Johnson, already.

Just popping out to look at some illuminated comet trail debris, as you do, then I'll be right back.

As you do.

Bed now young lady

Too early for the starry starry night, it would seem.

Our primary leaving disco had Gary glitter and do you wanna be in my gang?

Er no actually.

Sing if your glad to be gay think Tom Watson band?

Brilliant thread.

I have Holly Johnsons autograph. Does that count for anything?

Have bought and tweeted

We had Alvin Stardust and My Coocachoo. A 40 year old man with black leather gloves and unfeasibly darkly hirsute sideburns singing to a bunch of kids about some kind of sexual yearning.

Nice.

Heard that the other night for the first time in years

*A 40 year old man with black leather gloves and unfeasibly darkly hirsute sideburns singing to a bunch of kids about some kind of sexual yearning.

Quite a lot of the 70s were problematic really...

....sing if you're happy that way
Hey

Tom Watson was bizarrely considered more controversial than Alvin Stardust.

That tells you a lot about the 70s.

TOTP2 has taken on a different slant in the last few years

Good call! Saw it on the Daily Mail website earlier that that 'other' version was doing well. Made me feel uncomfortable.
Just downloaded the original Frankie song on the back of this thread.
Got over 3,000 Twitter followers which has big interaction on my main Twitter account.
My other one has over 1,000 followers. Will share the word on both!

Ooo we have a big twitter cheese

A Twitter Amazonian! Yay.

For those who don't know, Mike Read was key in getting 'Relax' banned in the 80s
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relax_%28song%29#Release_and_controversy

I didn't know that if true.I know Relax was banned on the radio for a while due to the 'risque' lyrics but didn't know he had a part in banning it if true.
If it was, then Jaysus, hypocrisy.

Shared on FB - I can't do Twitter, I don't understand it still!

Yes, he had to play it on his show as it was on the official playlist for Radio 1, but he took offence at the lyrics and lifted the needle off the record half way through and banned it from his show ... and the rest, as they say, was hysteria.

I'm sure if we all thwart HIS attempts at his record being played he'll adopt the same stance.
lol

Ooo we have a big twitter cheese

Hope that's not aimed at me I'm just me lol

Scream I've been struggling to see my own blardy tweets all evening. A competent twitterer with a decent list of followers is heaven

I think he should ban his own bloody song from the radio on the grounds of it being offensive.

OMG I just thought, are radio stations going to be playing this..?

Morning all,
Saw it on the Daily Mail website earlier that that 'other' version was doing well

Got over 3,000 Twitter followers which has big interaction on my main Twitter account.
