LOL Marslady... do you know that in all the times that i've heard that song I did not realise those were the lyrics...ahhh the days of innocence!!!

'Come on Eileen, i swear now Eileen,

What's your address, oh i need your address..
Come on Eileen, make me happy'

The Reflex for me. Love the video!

Blue Monday/New Order. I listened to it the other day and it's so eighties (in a good way).

It was great to see New Order live (on TV) at Glastonbury....would love to see them love, if only for old times sake.

Fio2 · 28/06/2005 12:00

I loved Abracadabra, Steve Miller band aswell, can just remember me and my sister dancing round the lounge in our leaotards

Lizzylou · 28/06/2005 12:00

OOh, Duran Duran and Aha!!! I had so many posters of both of them on my wall! Was convinced I would marry Simon Le Bon!!!
And little boy is called Morten in my DS's nursery class...must be another Mom with fond memories of the chiselled cheekboned Nordic one...

Was making my DS laugh the other day, dancing round to Madonna's "Get into the groove"

zingiber · 28/06/2005 12:01

Remember Smash Hits? I lived for the days it arrived at my newsagents.

cardy · 28/06/2005 12:02

NomDePlume · 28/06/2005 12:02

Gawd Morten H was gorgeous....

zingiber · 28/06/2005 12:03

Oh, Morten Harket was my dream man. (I was 12.) Was just thinking the other day, I was 12 - he was 25. Not cool. Now I'm 32 and he's 45. No problem there that I can see. Oh for the opportunity...

zingiber · 28/06/2005 12:04

Really cardy?! There's my opportunity!

Lizzylou · 28/06/2005 12:05

Those cheekbones....swoon

Morten left his wife and kids for the lead singer of Aqua, didn't he???
