David Sylvian

I rest my case.

Redcrayons · 31/05/2019 23:11

Oh yes David Sylvian.
I don’t really want to google any of them because I’ll discover they’re old men which will mean that I’m not a fresh faced 15 year old any more.

Andrew Ridgeley (well his picture) was on The Last leg tonight when they did a quiz of name that Tory Leadership hopeful.

I was going to say Jon Moss, I was planning our wedding at 13.....
Also David Sylvanian, and Nick Rhodes , who were separated at birth, I'm sure!

My mum's 70s popstars were prettier I think. David Bowie,David Essex, Marc Bolan. Yes please!!!

There were absolutely gorgeous men - as said George, Andrew, Neil from pet shop boys, bleached one from kajagoogoo ha, frankie from hollywood but the most delicious is Phil from human league..cor x

Oh Morten Harket and Nathan from Brother Beyond Grin

What can I say, I was young and impressionable!

Just googled old pics of Adam Ant - soooo good looking! I had a bit of a thing for Billy Idol too & loved his music. I loved “ Imagination” by Belouis Some but can’t remember if he was sexy or not

jennymanara · 01/06/2019 02:06

David Essex was very pretty too. But Adam Ant was beautiful.

George Michael was like a fine wine, I definitely found him sexier in later years.
Bon Jovi, I've fancied him forever, what a man. 😍

EnormousDormouse · 01/06/2019 02:33

Oh god ! Adam Ant dressed as a highwayman. So, so beautiful.

mydogisthebest · 01/06/2019 08:24

I think George Michael was more attractive as he got older.

David Cassidy was definitely very pretty and beautiful

Bluejeantreefrog · 01/06/2019 10:19

Billy McKenzie from The Assiociates, Jon Moss, Martin Kemp, the blond one from Spandau Ballet! My friend usually went for the less pretty but more manly ones.

ScreamingValenta · 01/06/2019 10:23

Fwooarrghh, yes!

redwoodmazza · 01/06/2019 10:46

I'm in a nostalgic heaven state now...

Sofasurfingsally · 01/06/2019 10:51

Well I'm definitely getting old, because I'm stunned at a band named Wank Direction.

I heard a piece on the radio yesterday about some Korean pop band. Apparently they are mega hide, selling millions, causing teen girls to learn Korean etc etc. They played a clip and I have never heard it before - and don’t wish to ever again (bland blahhhh).

Sofasurfingsally · 01/06/2019 13:12

I just twigged 😄😄😄😄😄
