    This is the best "80's" track:

    I'm still annoyed that it was never used in a Miami Vice episode.

    Album length version:

    No it's not.

    (feel free to now tell me I have to prove that it isn't or that statement will remain as being definitive 😉 )

    @Crucial 80's was in quotation marks! That tune was developed in a National Laboratory by 4000 people to be the epitome of a Miami Vice rock track.

    @MajorRage Saw him in concert about 6 weeks ago. For an old guy it was pretty good.

    Been listening to Coast fm at work, not my choice. Its not as bad as expected, theres a bit of motown and a lot of the 60s british bands which I like, unfortunately ABBA appears at least once a day. Lots of these songs I haven't heard in quite some time, some observations

    Elton john singing about returning to his redneck ways is one of the most preposterous things I've heard in a song.

    Annie Lennox has been off the scene for so long I've almost forgotten how closely she resembles Skeletor and can just appreciate her voice.

    Some old songs are very rapey

    My Shorona

    Never gonna stop, give it up, such a dirty mind
    I always get it up for the touch of the younger kind
    My, my, my, aye-aye, woo!

    Grease

    Tell me more, tell me more
    Was it love at first sight?
    Tell me more, tell me more
    Did she put up a fight?

    Young girl is the reigning champ though, ffs

    Young girl, get out of my mind
    My love for you is way out of line
    Better run, girl
    You're much too young, girl
    With all the charms of a woman
    You've kept the secret of your youth
    You led me to believe
    You're old enough
    To give me Love
    And now it hurts to know the truth
    Whaoo-oh-oh
    Young girl, get out of my mind
    My love for you is way out of line
    Better run, girl
    You're much too young, girl
    Beneath your perfume and make-up
    You're just a baby in disguise
    And though you know
    That it's wrong to be
    Alone with me
    That come on look is in your eyes
    Whaoo-oh-oh
    Young girl, get out of my mind
    My love for you is way out of line
    Better run, girl
    You're much too young, girl
    So hurry home to your Mama
    I'm sure she wonders where you are
    Get out of here
    Before I have the time
    To change my mind
    'Cause I'm afraid we'll go too far
    Whaoo-oh-oh
    Young girl, get out of my mind
    My love for you is way out of line
    Better run, girl
    You're much too young, girl
    Young girl, get out of my mind
    My love for you is way out of line
    Better run, girl
    You're much too young, girl

    @Tim That's been one of my my favourites since forever. It also has Mark Knopfler on steel guitar and an Tony Levin on bass. Far and away the best solo track from Ferry IMO.

    As the Australian bands of the 90s tours continue, we went and saw Regurgitator last night. Despite the venue (a very dodgy suburban pub) and the crowd (everyone i knew there was because our kids go to school together, obviously people of a certain age) it was a fucking fun gig. The boys certainly haven't lost any energy over the past 20 years.

    Unit was a good little album.

    Next up: Wolfmother in June

    @mariner4life Clearly I've never heard Regurgitator before, because I accidentally clicked on that vid and thought it would be one of the stock standard rock bands the Fern seems to favour - but I was pleasantly surprised. It's quite funky, and as I'm hearing it for the first time it actually sounds really contemporary too.

    How long was the lesbian in the green cardigan in the band for?

    You can see why Bono had to get singing lessons.
