Listening to the songs you liked when young (er)

[Ono]

Been going through my CD collection - in particular some of my Now That's What I Call Music ones and downloading things I like on them off Kazaa for PC listening.

Some of them bring the memories flooding back .

Songs that I haven't heard for years which are actually very good:

• 
  Tanita Tikaram - Twist in my Sobriety, Good Tradition and World Outside Your Window.
  
  Wee Papa Girl Rappers - We Rule
  
  MC Hammer - Hammer Rap, Addams Family
  
  Womack & Womack - Teardrops
  
  Technotronic - Pump Up the Jam
  
  INXS - Mystify, Need You Tonight
  
  Suzanne Vega - Luca, Tom's Diner
  
  Irene Cara - Flashdance !!!!!11111
  
  Phillip Oakey & Georgio Moroder - Electric Dreams
  
  Canberries - Dreams
  
  Pogues & K M - Fairytale in NY
  
  Every Fleetwood Mac song ever made
  
  Heart - These Dreams
  
  Mister Mister - Broken Wings
  
  Mike Oldfield - Moonlight Shadow
  

... and lots more. Takes me back to my childhood.

As am I. I will, however, point out that fans of It's a Sin should check out Gamma Ray's cover which is utterly excellent.

Anything by Madness

 

[~YuckFou~]

Point 1.

Was driving home the other day from London, falling asleep, which is never a good thing. So decided to play something lively that I could sing along to. My choice? "The Best Punk Album In The World Ever", glorious, reminded me of fumblings in school discos, mates parties etc. Started wondering where all my old school mates are, what they are doing ...... Finished the journey with Frank Sinatra

Point 2.

Recently went to the "Here and Now" concerts. Saw lots of old bands from the 80's, playing only the handfull of hits that they had, brilliant. Toyah is still very fuckable btw. (Wilcox that is not Battersby)

Yeauuuuuchh! Man I mean come on shes a complete bograt, and one with an annoying lisp at that have you thought what she might sound like at peak orgasm?? ( Assuming you would be man enough )


Its a mithdery yeth a mithdery

/edit touchee Ono

 

[~YuckFou~]

For her performance she wore thigh high black leather boots and a very very short leather skirt, very sexy, and full of energy.
Carol Decker looked good too, Kim Wilde even scrubbed up pretty well, she left her trowel at home.
