The Pretenders - Hymn to Her.

That's a great song. For some reason, I knew the title and knew the actual song, but I didn't realise the two were the same song, if that makes sense.

I've been singing the chorus to myself on and off since I saw it at the weekend.

#Something is lost. Something is found.#

Iggy Pop - Real Wild Child.

I always think this is an even older song, with a mid 80s dance beat put to it. I've never found out if this is actually the case.

Paul Simon - The Boy in the Bubble.

I absolutely adore this song - I think it's one of the best album openers in the history of album openers.

That was a terrible episode which was saved only by the presence of the Pretenders and Paul Simon.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everyone else made of it.

My goodness. Is this the first time you and I have ever liked the same songs?

And me!

I like the Boy in the Bubble.

Always found the Pretenders to be a total snooze fest though.

Sophistpop at the most insipid and boring.

Taffy I love my Radio!







One for the Tomboy thread.

Pepsi and Shirly!

They're no Taffy.

Suisxsie and the Banshees!

Pointless cover.

Pepsi & Shirlie returned in 2000 to record their backing vocals on Geri Halliwell's UK number one hit "Bag It Up".

Chart run up..

Jackie Wilson not number one!

Steve 'Silk' Hurley at number one!

Is this House Music? It's just noise.

"It was also the first UK number one single to achieve the majority of its sales on the 12" format. Under the chart rules in place at the time, the 12" single should not have counted toward "Jack Your Body"'s chart position as its running time exceeded the then-current 25-minute limit. The rule was not enforced since the running time was not brought to the chart compilers' attention until the record was already at number one. "

Playing out with Swing Out Sister.

What's with all this old music, it's all



now.

Oh, and Dead or Alive were alright, if a little too close to, err.. you know what.
