Who thought the Waterboys ' whole of the moon ' was a great song in 1986?

ok, but not great.

 

[ShinbonerBaz]

I also thought 'under the milky way' and 'the unguarded moment ' were classics.

Agree

 

[ferball]

"Unguarded moment" and "Almost with you". Under the milky way is definitely meh. No lu8 it at all.

 

[ferball]

Whole of the moon was ok.

Who listened to husker du?

 

[ShinbonerBaz]

Well still think they are ^^^^

me too, I like Metropolis and Almost With You as well.

I remember the predictions of when Halley's Comet was going to be most visible to be late April-May.

It was better in March.

Nek time I will be better prepared....

Who saw Halleys Comet in 1986 with their own eyeballs?

Wat did you think of it?

I've saw it in the Northern Territory and thought it was pretty cool.

They are classics - definitely the jewels in the Church's catalogue.

Me ! "Don't want to know if you are lonely" from Candy Apple Grey is one of my all time favourite songs.

I remember discovering Lost in Space actually had colour episodes when we got our first TV.

Warning ******* campaigner Will Smith!

For years as a young kid I thought that England was grey & black...even the grass, as that was all I saw on the Black & white TV. Got a real surprise when I got up in the middle of the night to watch a rugby test with Dad & the grass was green on the new colour telly !

Classic album - it saw Husker Du move from their hardcore roots to sowing the seeds for much of what would come in the alternative rock genre.

Rumours of a husker Du reunion have been floating around recently. I'd go see them if they toured.

I would too and you're right candy Apple Grey was definitely more commercial than the previous albums but its just a classic in my eyes. Many a road trip I've done with that album going full noise !

ps whats Tapatalk ?...I feel like the kid at school not being let in on the class secret !

blackshadow , have you been taking photos lately? Don't give up, will you ? I have seen some as you have posted them And all interesting

Titanic is a crap film... Saw a bit of it yesterday and the first thing that came to mind was how cringey the scripting was

 

[see see]

Love the acoustic solo in Almost With You, one of the all-time greats. Bag pipe solo in Under The Milky Way sits a rung below the one in It's A Long Way To The Top.

It's one of two films on my list of never ever to watch - the other one is Grease.

I've seen grease so many times due to the female contingent of my family. Fortunately we don't have titanic but my sister's friend came over and brought it with her. It's just so so bad.

If the female contingent wants to watch shite I go to the study where I have a comfortable couch, another TV and PS4...
