I think Jimmy Krankie might be off the menu too on account of the fact she's a woman he's a bit young for me. Wink

Bananarama-brilliant.

I had to watch George and Aretha twice, it was brilliant. And George looked hot. Blush

Are you all aware of the literal videos (this is a bit of Bonnie) that take the wonder of 80's videos and make them perfect?

Keep away from the lovely Terry Hall (who is still on my list of husbands-to-be whenever he's ready. DH is cool with this)

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 17/08/2013 21:41

Oooh , how could I forget Ghost Town by The Specials (1981 , so just squeezed in there)

PoppyAmex · 17/08/2013 21:41

Impulse, the first time I watched Bonnie's literal video I felt sick from laughing so much. It's a masterpiece.

FacebookWanker · 17/08/2013 21:42

Oh yesssss...loved Ghost Town...
