Been a bit of a crap week (not just for me but for several buddies) so I am spamming myself (and them, lol!) with youtube vids of Eighties songs that never fail to cheer me up. Feel free to click. *g*
Best Years of our Lives - Modern Romance. My oldest BFF and I hated these boys with a passion, and naturally we still always play this song when we get together for a few drinks. God, they were so incredibly naff, but I'm dancing in my chair, so go figure.

The Lion Sleeps Tonight - Tight Fit. I still have no words. *g*

Spirit in the Sky - Doctor and the Medics. Hair in the Eightes rarely got bigger than this boy's hair.

Club Tropicana - Wham. And to think we were actually shocked when George Michael came out. *g*

Walk like a Man - Divine. Want to see the reason why the new version of Hairspray will never compare to the original for me? This is the real Edna Turnblad, thanks very much. *g*

Only for Love - Limahl. Every retro eighties CD has Limahl's "Never Ending Story" on it. Boo to that, I say.

Preacher Man - Bananarama. Siobhan may have left, but they still rocked. Look at that, my feet are tapping and I want to fluff up my hair and call one of my gay boys and go out dancing.

And finally - more Bananarama, this time with French and Saunders (and Kathy Burke!) doing "Help" for Comic Relief. *fangirls*

In other news, that Mariah Carey video with Wentworth stealing her away from her wedding is on VH1 on the television in the next room right now and I didn't realise and I just looked up and saw his face and I admit it. I made an embarassingly squeaky 'eeeeh' noise out loud.
