Old TOTP (BBC4) (6 Viewers)

Fuck knows how Yewtree never came for Steve Wright. Turns out he was every bit the sexless oaf he portrayed.
 
What's the thing where you stick knitting needles up your urethra? Holly looks the type.
 
Simply Red - fuck off. I thought Hucknell had got shot of the band sooner than this but there's 3 of the original members still there. Unmitigated shite.
 
I hate Marc Almond these days.

I remember where I was when I heard that Gene Pitney was dead. This is solely because I was on the phone to a branch of the bank I worked for at the time; it was v. close to the hotel where GP died and she was all excited because there were police and press all over the place. Whatever gives you a thrill, love.
 
Oh Christ, Hue and Fucking Cry. You have no idea how ubiquitous these smug cunts are in Glasgow. I was at Glasgow Uni while Pat Kane was rector as well. Just a joyless chasm of smug.

He's an uppity prick with casual transphobia, youth envy and a belief that he somehow peronally cured homophobia by being on TOTP with an earring in.

Plus he won't reissue/remaster those Marc and the Mambas records that are actually bonkers.
 
Morrissey. I'm sorry but "The Last Of The International Playboys" still sounds brilliant. It was exciting to see him on TOTP (and on record) with all of The Smiths bar Johnny Marr, gave us a wee bit of hope. Although he was a dick not to ask Stephen Street who played guitar and synth on the record.

Makes it all the more sad how utterly repellent he is now. Prick.
 
Oh fuck off Sybil and FUCK OFF ROD. If you're riding on SIMON MAYO's COATTAILS then I'VE GOT NEWS FOR YOU
 
Def Leppard - shite. Simple Minds - shite.

Oh, synchonicity - I seem to be watching the first time that Glo perf was broadcast. QUITE DULL.
 
TOTP was really metalphobic sometimes...starting songs halfway through and showing about 90 seconds.

Pop Will Eat Itself in the breakers: Clint Mansell (their lead singer) becoming a highly successful film composer was every bit as unlikely in 1989 as Morrissey becoming and insufferable racist cockdribble.
 
omg

And people think they listen to BANGERS these days :vomit:
 
Texas - same drift as with Hue & Cry - absolute shite, totally inescapable in this city.
 
Imma bail out - I'm at the Style Council's "house record" and it's horrible. need to cleans myself with some horrible noise.

Also, I love Fuzzbox but I need to endure a couple of ep's to get there and I don't have it in me.
 
I suspect Jason Donovan is the first person I ever FANCIED.

I know I was 8, but still...
