isabellerossignol · 26/07/2019 11:48

Frankie goes to Hollywood Relax - or was that late 80s?

Early 80s I think Shock I remember it being banned (sort of). Then I remember hearing it for the first time and not understanding why it was banned. And then about 15 years later the penny dropped and I thought 'oh...I understand what they were singing about now BlushGrin'

nordstrom · 26/07/2019 11:49

The Wannadies - you and me song

anothernotherone · 26/07/2019 11:52
