[Shirley]

I'm not watching RIGHT NOW but I'd forgotten all about MICHAEL BALLS

LOVE
LOVE CHANGES
EVERYTHING

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Eww Mick Hucknall dressed as a raggy doll.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I like to think Gene and Marc had at least a mutual wank.

 

[Shirley]

Here's SAM!

"The height of sophistication" - Mr S

 

[AGinAg (37)]

What a charming wig.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

It was the first version of I Only Wanna Be With You I ever knew and I loved it

 

[Shirley]

Oh not a BALLARD Rick

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Oh shit off Rick and come in 25 years.

And so he did.

 

[Shirley]

Variety Club's RECORDING ARTIST OF THE YEAR

 

[Shirley]

Everything they say is going to be number one NEVER IS

 

[Shirley]

Well that last one wasn't too FURIOUS

Oh God here's DEF LEPPARD

 

[Shirley]

Ugh awful rock and TEXAS. Reminds me of sitting in awful pubs with my TONE DEAF FRIENDS

Here's the BALL! WHAT A DISH EH LADIES

 

[Shirley]

SEEMS LIKE A NICE YOUNG MAN ENID

 

[Shirley]

Call me a RACIALIST but I never liked the NEW JACK SWING SOUND

 

[Shirley]

The style originated from Janet Jackson's third studio album, Control from 1986.

DID IT FUCK AS. Although HEY why not blame DREARY OLD WHISPERIN' JANFT for the MORIBUND state of "R&B" for the last 30 YEARS

 

[Shirley]

Oh HERE'S the old CUNT HIMSELF

"I am not NATURALLY EVIL"

O RLY

 

[Zu]

Call me a RACIALIST but I never liked the NEW JACK SWING SOUND

Oh MOI NON PLUS

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Mike Reid saying Morrissey was FINE BY HIM.

We KNOW.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Why was Yazz ALWAYS candooling with the presenters?

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I notice Gene Pitney has had a GH on the charts for the last few weeks. Did this rechart based on the TOTP replays?!

 

[lolly]

It's just a very recently released one of those Gold compilations, isn't it? I imagine it's just happy coincidence.

 

[FetchFugly]

Why was Yazz ALWAYS candooling with the presenters?

What a rotten suck up.

I had convinced myself that Fine Time was a cover but it appears not.

 

[FetchFugly]

WARNING - DANGER, includes footage of Eamonn Holmes jiggling about:



Going by this I am not sure that popular music's loss was God's gain. There's one bit in particular where she sounds like an alarm going off.

 

[Zu]

The HAIR!

 

[Zu]

The VOX!

 

[FetchFugly]

I know it is unlikely but it sounds like she shouts 'BASTARD!' at Holmes as he sidles up behind her.

 

[Shirley]

Who the FUCK is SUSIE MATHIS?

Is that BILLIE RAY MARTIN in the S-EXPRESS REVUE?

 

[Shirley]

Edie Brickell LOL

WHAT I AM IS WHAT I AM ARE YOU WHAT YOU ARE OR WHAT

 

[Shirley]

Oh Rick this one is a DUD and a BORE

 

[Shirley]

Tyree! Tone Loc! Dusty! Oh my life is flashing before my eyes!

I never liked LOOKING FOR LINDA

 

[Zu]

Is that BILLIE RAY MARTIN in the S-EXPRESS REVUE?

YES! Actually I must have a look at what old sourpuss is up to. Getting the begging bowl out for the KATZEN, being a miserable old cow and scraping together Pfennigs for the next album on the Crowdfunder no doubt. Plus ça change

 

[Shirley]

Michael Balls again! You are SPOILING US!

 

[Zu]

Shall we?



Actually I like the BRM TIGHTS

 

[Shirley]

Oh not BELFAST CHILD. What a DREARY DIRGE

 

[octophone]

Oh not BELFAST CHILD. What a DREARY DIRGE

I fucking hate Jim Kerr. My dear brother and I always referred to him as "Juan" for obvious reasons...

 

[Shirley]

YAY!

We're singing the MEDLEY

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I have never ever understood how Belfast Child became a #1.

 

[FetchFugly]

All these live performances popping up now. The presenters do seem to be at pains to draw attention to a LIVE VOCAL too.

 

[FetchFugly]

I have never ever understood how Belfast Child became a #1.

It has to be one of my hated number ones as a child. I thought it was longer than a couple of weeks.
