Ah yes,
Graham,
I remember that Paul Lekakis song as well. And
Male Stripper, by
Man To Man feat. Man Parrish. (Should I be worried that I remember that in
such detail? Oddly enough, I never did find out who exactly Man Parrish was,
or why he was being featured.) I remember The 80s in fragments;
I didn't hear Fade To Grey or Blue Monday first time around (though I still
might have the 7" of Blue Monday '88, purchased in 1988, somewhere),
though I do remember hearing
Bizarre Love Triangle and some
Italian disco number with lyrics like "let's go to the beach, and we can
have a good time" (or something to that effect) playing from
some teenaged girl's bedroom when dragged along somewhere with my parents.
I somehow get the feeling that she looked like Molly Ringwald, or at least
should have.
