Also Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree by 'Mel' and 'Kim' has been mentioned. At the time previously mentioned I remember very clearly walking up Cornhill in Chelmsford town centre in my ambiguGoth gear, and hearing that song blaring out from the market under the multi-storey car park.

I heard that less that 24 hours ago, and I have no memory of the song at all.

Maybe it's me? Gorilla No

I think Like a Prayer was the first Madonna song I actually liked. Queen of pop? No.

1988 is going to be a Madonna-free year. She released no single or album in that year. box

1988 is the year of ~~Acid House~~ Kylie and Jason innit? happy

That's why Madonna didn't make a record. She knew she couldn't compete with them. box

Incidentally they uploaded a version of Like A prayer from Eurovision where they've 'fixed' the vocals.

Still no power, excitement or personality in the vocals.

Even if the backing vocals are weedy.

And some of the lyrics are blatantly stolen from Squeeze's Heartbreaking World.

I do suspect this is them trying to do their own version of True.
