old music

[jabbawokkie]

which album did you love as a kid ,but wont dare mention it today

 

[weasel]

Ok, I'll go first and destroy any credibility I have (probably not much).

As a kid I owned a proclaimers album, and quite liked it. :?

Unfortunately that isn't even the end of it, I also had about 4 Erasure albums and used to really really like them


I would just like to say that it's been god knows how many years since I listened to any of them, and I distinctly remember throwing them on a bonfire one Halloween.

Anyone else?

I think I have Erasures greatest hits album somewhere !!

I used to like the Pet Shop Boys but their music has dated very badly over the years.

i was a die hard new kids on the block fan.

i still like the pet shops boys, you could never accuse them of following the pack, completely unique sound.

Saw an old Erasure video on one of the MTV channels a few weeks ago (might have been "sometimes") and how the hell I never figured out they were gay, even aged 8 or 9 is beyond me. :?

my music taste has always been pretty good 8)
first album at the age of 6 was zenyatta mondatta by the police, and single was brick in the wall by pink floyd
was into queen and then u2 and simple minds and inxs. after that echo and the bunnymen , depeche mode . 90's dance lead to nirvana, radiohead so no embarrasing albums... although i did buy the firm star trekin at a boot sale recently only for the memory value ... :lol:

I started to like Queen towards the end of their time but some of my favourite albums were Michael Jacksons Bad and Thriller and I really liked Duran Duran.

"Girls on film" remains one of the best ever music videos !! 8)

 

[weasel]

Was a huge queen fan about the time Freddie Mercury died, also a big Police fan, and like most people around the time of his death I was a Kurt Cobain/Nirvana fan.

Had "Bad" as a kid as well, loved it. To be fair even when I hear some of the songs now I still like them.

ok one album i liked when i was about 12 and starting to drink and blind to how gay they were was the london boys

 

[weasel]

"London boys"?

Don't remember them, I'm guessing that's a good thing!

 

[craignwo4life]

Didn't the London boys only release one song - "London Nights"? :?

 

[boba frett]

London Boys :lol: Werent they the British Milli Vanilli! :lol:

Yep they were as bad as I remember. Check out the vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbszjo99JAc

"Girls on film" remains one of the best ever music videos !! 8)

Especially the 12 Inch Night Version uncut!

I was a Duranie too, back in the day

 

[weasel]

That video is terrible, and the song aint much better!

Still don't remember it though, thankfully. Reading the comments people have posted below it on Youtube, it looks they were both killed in car accident ten years ago.

[roundster]

Not an album but, The final countdown by europe
I loved that track, but have you seen the video :roll:

[weasel]

That's a classic bit of cheese!

Right up there with Van Halen "Jump"

 

[boba frett]

Yeah but "Jump" is still a great song, Eddie Van Halen is a legend 8)
