ASFM: dmlawdifestivalen: Forgotten Hits - Semi Final 2 listening party 22/04/2021 8pm

[RS]

I guess it’s Suomi.

 

[Marilyn]

Now THIS is the kind of HOT SHIT I'm here for

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Oh these girls

 

[BoysForSeles]

Looks like Kim Wilde and Sam Fox duetting from a distance.

 

[HerSereneHighnessAnniFrid]

2x Samantha Janus

 

[dmlaw]

I'm not sure that either Lili or Susie has chosen a flattering shade of lipstick.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

The pink lipstick is a choice

 

[Kate]

What is this

 

[ButterTart]

This video goes to show that being hit in the face by a firework filled with Maybelline isn't all fun and games.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

He is actually RINGING A BELL

 

[Kate]

This may be the most 80s thing of all time

(all time being the 80s until now, obviously)

 

[dmlaw]

It's like the late 80s were sick on them.

 

[jivafox]

The song is too mediocre to match the iconography of the video.

 

[Alla]

Loving this Anita Ward's remake.

 

[Berly]

I’m an hour late but I’m starting now!

 

[Cerro de Casa]

The choreography is very Mel & Kim

 

[Tisch]

What is this

Melodifestivalen shit

 

[ButterTart]

I'm not sure that either Lili or Susie has chosen a flattering shade of lipstick.

They reckon women choose lipstick that makes their mouth look like their vagina. These two need to get themselves down to A&E if that's true.

I actually do like the song, though

 

[Kate]

I believe this will be a grower.

 

[Tisch]

According to Wikipedia they "dissolved" in 1993. Rip Huns

 

[jivafox]

Why is she sweating so much?!

 

[dmlaw]

SONG 41 - Raven

Sioussie & The Banshees - Face To Face



UK #21

 

[ButterTart]

Suzie-Anne de Banshees? Never heard of him!

 

[GNL]

I worry that this being the sole plank for the Eurovision gays to cling into in a very Moopy unfriendly semi will launch this dreck to the top.

 

[GNL]

OMG GO ON R SUE

 

[BoysForSeles]

Keep an eye on that cat with all these birds about.

 

[dmlaw]

I believe this will be a grower.

You really notice that it basically only has one line after a couple of listens.

 

[RS]

Good God what is this?

 

[Alla]

Isn't this from a Batman movie?

 

[Kate]

Why is she sweating so much?!

She's getting her bell thoroughly rung

 

[Alla]

This song was a massive flop, where did it hit top 10?

 

[GNL]

Isn't this from a Batman movie?

Yes!

 

[ButterTart]

Isn't this from a Batman movie?

She does have a look of Danny de Vito about her.

 

[jivafox]

The absolute minimum of GENERIC DANCE SHIT and more INTERESTING CHOICES in this ASFM has left me AGOG. I feel like it's a different forum

 

[ButterTart]

I've always liked the idea of Siouxie more than the actual execution.

 

[RS]

This is the best thing I’ve heard for years.

 

[ButterTart]

The absolute minimum of GENERIC DANCE SHIT and more INTERESTING CHOICES in this ASFM has left me AGOG. I feel like it's a different forum

This has been a very strong round.

 

[Alla]

Oh #21 in UK. Those were the days where ANYTHING would chart there.

 

[dmlaw]

This song was a massive flop, where did it hit top 10?

UK number 21. I don't think it reached the Top 10 anywhere.

 

[Kate]

SOOZ. One of those acts I REALLY SHOULD LIKE, but can't get on with. Apart from Peek-A-Boo, and U Got 2 Know by Cappella.
