Okay, Time For Just One More...

Rage are having an early 80s night apparently, old Countdown episodes from 1980 to 1983 or so. Mmm, a young INXS, in fourteen years time you will be dead Mr Hutchence. And love the asymetric haircuts on the guys LOL. Pat Benatar young and Tina Turner trying to look sexy in a small gold dress hmm. And Split Enz, Straight Old Line in this 1983 one.

Just thinking, 1983 would be about the same time that I started showing the slightest interest in RTR back home - RTR was short for Ready To Roll. And about the first memorable music clip that I can remember from those dim, distant, ancient times was Split Enz with Six Months In A Leaky Boat.

Just something about the Finn brothers that brings instant nostalgia and warm fuzzy feelings in my chest or stomach. Although one thing we didn't have to deal with back in EnZed was Molly Meldrum .

Paul Young Love Of The Common People, Billy Joel Uptown Girl, Say Say Say by Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney. And Mick Jagger not looking like a geriatric LOL. Hnm, apparently the Rolling Stones did a music video with some El Salvador deathsquad footage.

Back when the CIA was supporting the civil wars in several different countries, including err Afghanistan. Almost every topic can come full circle, if you find the appropriate six degrees...
