Bottom > The Young Ones (feat Madness and other 80s music videos)

[Plugger35]

Mondo Rock were one of my favourite bands from the 80s.

It was a party night, it was the end of school.

There's a reason I'd forgotten that one.

Anyway - isn't 2002 well past the nominal '80s???

That was a modern reboot from an 80s Spanish girl group La Tomato Sauce.

Towards the end of the 80s, but I had a personal interest in this song, I was involved in a project to upgrade Barcelona's infrastructure before the Olympics. They replaced it as the official Olympic song due to Freddie's death in 1991, but it was played anyway.

Was thinking about all the Dire Straits / Floyd / Zeppelin etc that was a constant background at the time, but they probably can be taken as included in this stream without being individually listed

Scottish 80s pop/rock was the best.

Watching Rage and they played this song.





Just reminded me of how good Madonna was, she ruled the 80s with a fingerless gloved iron fist.

Madonna came back with this banga in the noughties that put the likes of Beyonce and Pink in the shade, respect.

I used to do radio shows on 3RPP when I was around 16/17.. I used to bing in my own records and had the 12 inch mix of this. Was my outro song, at 1am Monday mornings. I did 11pm sunday night and had to get a taxi home from the Mooroduc studios after 1AM. Amazing to think they let a 16/17 year old do a midnight shift alone, with noone else in the studio and I locked the joint up and got in a cab with my crate of records.

I also had a saturday afternoon slot.. I think 3-5PM I ended up getting kicked off air for 2 reasons. I had a mate who drove tanks in the Army and he said we can give out a prize to ride in a tank to callers who answered correctly some bloody question I don't remember. Turns out he didn't have the authority to make that happen, Station relics didn't like that and I also swore a bit too much on my sunday night show, 'Naughty Bits'.

My mate from the Army hung himself a few years later. His name was Nick, or Lights if he was a mate.

His suicide was nothing to do with the radio show.. He didnt give a s**t and was trolling me and everyone.

Spain came to the party with this song.

One of those songs greatly improved by the video clip. A lot of those in the noughties. Here's a couple I remember. I liked the videos so much, I ended up not minding the tune after some time!

Mmmm Faye Tozer


And Irish chicks!

Feeble attempt at rerailing:

[The hands of stone]

Love those 80s clips were you get the randon dance off out of nowhere in the middle of the clip

 

[Plugger35]

After another depressing Saints loss I need to listen to some Yazoo.'




Even depressing 80s music was great.

 

[Plugger35]

An Aussie Crawl depressing 80s classic.
