80's Night at Twisted Bavarian

Ahhh Public Image Limited!!! Thanks Katrina it was driving me nuts.

And I can't believe I forgot the Cult! Arrrrghhhh.

I love the Smith, very funny lyrics and very camp. I have no sexual orientation problems though, so I do not dislike someone if their sexual orientation differs from mine.

Little more difficult boys and girls...

..Boy meets girl..

These are just guesses really...those are tough!!! Challenging for a rainy afternoon

you got the same ones I got, looks like we had the same 7" collection
I don't think it's wham, though, but I could be wrong... Isn#t it that song that goes "give a little respect, to-oo-oo me"

...That you give me no reason, Why you're making me work so hard, That you give me no, That you give me no... Erasure

...Living on the ceiling...Blancmange

Another one of the great mysteries of the '80's. Why do I have their records ?

Ahhhh yes...there is a similar line in the Wham song 'Everything She Wants'.

But you are right...the one Tartan posted is Erasure.

..This is telecommunication, Telecommunication... is this Flock of Seagulls?
...I hear your footsteps in the street, It won't be long before we meet, It's obvious... Aztec Camera!!! "Oblivious" now that is a song and a half
...Living on the ceiling... Blancmange!!! I love this rekkid to pieces
...I want candy, I want candy... Bow Wow Wow?
...That you give me no reason, Why you're making me work so hard, That you give me no, That you give me no... Erasure

..tongue tied, does'nt seem a minute, since the tyrolean spar had a ch... eh?
...Pretty in pink, Isn't she... Psychadelic Furs
...Gonna use my arms, Gonna use my legs, Gonna use my style... The Pretenders
...What you gonna do when you get out of jail? I'm gonna have some fun, What do you consider fun?... Tom Tom Club "he is the genius of looooove! love love lorrrrrrrrrrrrrvee lalallalala"
...I've got your picture, I've got your picture, I'd like a million of you over myself... The Vapours

that sounds right to me
dunno the others, though

Those are two songs and a half! 100% class both of them.
And Topsy there is almost no song more Yorkshire than "Living on the Ceiling", "oop and down I turn around I'm oop the bloody tree"
The song with "tongue tied" - it isn't Kajagoogoo is it? "Too shy"? Just the "tongue tied" bit, can't remember owt Tyrolean in it though.

Never heard it, aren't blancmange kajagoogoo-esque?
I was far too cool to listen to that kind of stuff in the 80's, what with me spikey hair and me purple blusher

Here you go
I love their cover of ABBA's "Day before you came" (which is also probably my favourite ABBA song but that changes regularly).
"God's Kitchen" is also a cracking track.

A flock of seagulls is correct.
Is there a place for Murray Head?

"One night in Bangkok" of course! I should have had that one (or the King of the Musicals, i.e. 3 Lions, should have had it).

Just been listening to 'Oblivious' and 'Living on the Ceiling' and 'Pretty in Pink' on the way back from Manching!

Ach schplendid. 80's night. I'm there.

Casting my mind back to my mid to late Eighties wardrobe I have some horrific memories of ripped jeans, basketball boots, a denim jacket (with the sleeves ripped off) with a "Live to Ride" patch on the back worn proudly over a leather jacket. There's also a vague recollection of a waistcoat and thin leather tie which may or may not have had piano keys on it. Them were scary days. Thank Christ there are no photos in existance.

$$$ to anyone that shaves their hair into a mullet. you must prove you don't usually sport one though.

Only accept €€€, sorry BB.

Ah, "BB", reminds me of my childhood sweetheart, BiBi Baskin. What a fine woman!

Thanks to this 80's topic this Monday feels like a Friday.

80's were the shiznit.

ok. €€€ it is then. €40 maybe? your hair's too short though, and badger's would be a crime.

I, too, am a fine woman. A damn fine one at the that.

Hm. How many girls will show up with a ponytail on the side of their head? Better yet, my sister had the cut where it's short on one side and gradually gets longer around to the other side.

I call that the sideways hairdo. sideways hedge if the hair is thick. saw 2 women in Italy last fall who had them (they were together and, yes I am embarassed to say, were American).

I do not know anybody nor have I ever known anybody who ever had a hair cut like that.

I also do not know anybody who had short hair and a "forgotten" plait.

I'm so glad that I was spared these sights.

Thanks Keydeck, I'ld forgotten BiBi, Ireland's answer to Uschi Glas. For the nights when Dana was too scary.

Ah thank you. You reminded me. What is up with Sarah Connor? I keep seeing that 'Hero' video and thinking...what has she done???!!!

If that doesn't scream 80's I don't know what does.

Bet her mom is wondering where the tea-towel went.

If I was feeling brave (I would have in my old job) then I would have come as Mr. T with mohican, green boiler suit and spray gold chains!

Kat's post has reminded me that no outfit will be complete without huge shoulder pads. or huge hair. must get to schlecker before the hairspray runs out...

Yeti, then you'll probably remember this from the radio...

Oh really? So this isn't familiar at all then? So those photos were faked?

This was more like my 'do(n't) - tippex highlights, scrunch-dried with a knackered gone-wrong perm topped off with a scrunchie. Classy.

H&M have ra-ra skirts in girls - don't all rush at once...

Anyone remember this guy? Last I heard, he turned into some strange white colored monkey.

It's life Jim, but not as we know it.

And how can we forget some of these other 80s wonders?

Keydeck, I will gladly exchange the $$$ for €€€ if you sport a mullet.
But seeing as how your hair currently is too short for looking like B.Idol, never mind.

Searching...searching...searching for some good 80's hair that I might be able to pull off...

Could be worse. Most of the blokes who remember the 80s are searching for any kind of hair that can't be pulled off...

Ok, boys. A beer to the first guy to pull this off.

Pull off which one ? I don't remember the 80's being that experimental ?

Dont forget Tina turner. Best hairdo evva.
