Was Doing the Southern Freeze in the 80's?

lovethis

Southern Freeze is awesome!

Some more from me:

Nu Shooz - I Can't Wait God, I thought this was soooooo futuristic when I was a kid - now it sounds totally 80s Still remember singing along to the 7" in our flat.

Shannon - Let The Music Play This on the other hand is still futuristic (and retro at the same time). A timeless classic.

Colonel Abrahams - Trapped This is a favourite in the cyteen household

Rah Band - Clouds Across The Moon Pure pop genius!

The first single I bought.....

lol at tight fit in the jungle. I remember roller skaking 'round the house to that - literally, from kitchen to the dining room, sitting room, hall back into the kitchen......Wheeeeeee!! my boot skates were blue with red stripes and a big red stopper.

Nice to see MadameC putting up some bonafide classics while I just bring the cheese

Hall & Oates - I Can't Go For That

Kim Wilde - Cambodia

I just love that spooky synth pop.

anything by cameo - i was scarred for life by watching his leather codpiece aged 6

LOL! It's true - Word Up is a stone cold classic, but that codpiece was terrifying.

ha ha!!
Thought of another good one. This is SO quintessentially 80s, hairbrush, backcombed hair......

just a wee joke!

Even before I clicked I knew that was Dollar

Sad to say, we've recently rediscovered a liking for that song...apparently Trevor Horn was the power behind Dollar for a while, which probably explains how they managed to carve out a career despite both being completely rubbish.

As an aside, I've noticed a pleasing surfeit of literacy and sense among comments for 80s vids on YouTube.

You've put your finger on it. I was looking at those pages, thinking hmmmmmm, somthing looks different but what is it?! And now I've realised it was just that there were proper paragraphs, of, like, English. Not that txt pidge that the yooths speak today.

It a farking disgrace innit?

Zoom

Remember him?

just had to laugh last night when one of the Annie hopefuls said she was doing a cover version of See the Day by Girls Aloud....

Sorry Love, Dee C Lee did it before, it was her OWN song, not a cover...

BTW I have a vinyl copy of That's What I Call Music in the loft still. That's right, no numbers, it's the original.

But there was never any method in my madness Absolutely the bees knees! or Dog Eat Dog or Antmusic

I have a curiosity killed the cat album still

oh and alice cooper

Love some of the songs already mentioned.

Keep hearing St Elmo's Fire being played this week for some reason.

I loved this

Klaw - I had the first NTWICM too - on double cassette

Actually now I've listened to it again I still love it

I always played this 45 twice..

Sorry, Sidge, can't abide T'Pau
