CONCRETE BLONDE - Still In Hollywood (Music Video) (Alternate Version)
WOAAH! I never heard this version before! Check it out:
Man, it's like taking a time machine back to 1984 and rooting through a record bin and finding something new!

Sent to me by a friend:
Well, I like it. Thanks for asking.

IGGY POP - "Repo Man"
This is the themesong of my mid-1980s:
Page out of a comic book.
A chicken hanging on a hook.
A river and a babbling brook.
A sermon
and a teenage hook.
Shaking my hand at your fake face.
A suicide a certain look.
A microphone a loose guitar.
People feeling near and far.
Stupidity a mental scar.
Put cruel into cruelty.
As life goes by you in a blurr.
An achoholic has gone far.
Everything just goes to far.

HUMAN LEAGUE - "Do or Die"
Yeah, whatever, I'm recently obsessed. But I think my pal Brian has it right when he sez that DARE is one of the Top Five pop albums of all time...
A nice live piece from the short-lived "Over The Top".

SIOUXSIE - "Peek-A-Boo"
I always forget how many young people have never seen these building blocks of music:
This one goes out to all the people on Earth who were born after this aired.

ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN - "The Killing Moon"
Every time I hear the opening bars of this song, my stomach falls just like the feeling you get while riding a roller coaster...
And it makes me feel sad.

SOFT CELL - "Sex Dwarf"
Quite possibly the greatest '80s dance song ever:
This was our favorite. If you can't dance to this, you can't dance to anything.

TIME ZONE (Afrika Bambaataa & Johnny Lydon) - "World Destruction"
Hard to believe this one isn't up here yet:
I think this fell between the Pistols and P.I.L., but all I know for sure is I've got the EP right here!

GARY GLITTER - "Rock and Roll"
This was the first cool 45 I ever got:
I bought it off of Steve Brewer with my lunch money.
I still have it. Know what's on the flip side? That's right, "Rock and Roll Pt. 2"
