I was bloody obsessed with Barry Gibb, Dave from Shawaddywaddy, Alvin Stardust and later Richard Clayderman the wet pianist.
To be fair, I still fancy Barry Blush.

Corey Haim
River Phoenix
Johnny Depp (that one went baaaaad!)
Chris Lowe

Guy Pearce
Stefan Edberg
Goran Ivanisavic (sp?)
Matt and Luke Goss (sorry, Ken!)
Kurt Kobain

Damon Albarn
James Dean Bradfield
Nicky Wire
Liam Gallagher (I swapped to Noel later on!)
Alex James
Brett Anderson
I had a brief thing for Gary Linekar after Italia '90! Blush
Soooo many indie / Brit Pop band members!

I was just a mass of hormones way back when...think I used them up as there's so very few who I fancy now! Grin
