Sequel to Leelee's terrible 80's fascination.

Lets talk about the 80's, the time that fashion forgot Big hair and shoulder pads and Duran Duran singing on a yacht Cliff Richard was in his element with a number one every year George Michael was straight, but all the men knew he was queer The top 40 was played on the radio, every fucking week My sister used to record it, she'd pause it when they'd speak I forgot about Phil Collins, his music could raise the dead A tiny, tuneless little man, with a rather large bald head Groups would come on dressed like lemons, then mime badly to their song Or in Milly Vanilli's case, get someone else to sing called John I really hate the 80's, there's only one good song I could find It's by 'The Pixies' and it's called 'Where Is My Mind' Bands would drive in tour buses, up and down the country they'd travel Then appear on Top Of The Pops, hosted by the one and only Jimmy Savile You had terrible frontmen, like Simple Minds Jim Kerr I'll have the 90's any day, with the likes of Stone Roses, Kasabian, Oasis and Blur.....
