Culture Club

They really were pretty damn good. I saw some live stuff they did, and they were a wonderful band. Too bad that bandmember died of aids. sad. Boy George really was a wonderful soul singer.
All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

Nope, nobody has passed away. Their sometime keyboardist, Michael Rudetski, died in a scandalous drug binge with George, but that's it.

Culture Club gets much love here and for good reason - they're one of the best pop bands ever. Sweet vocals, great music and a whole mess of memorable R&B-tinged pop tunes. I've said it before, but it's always worth repeating - Time (Clock of the Heart) is one of the best songs of the 80s. Beautiful!

No I didn't actually. All I said was that I like Culture Club and that about two days ago I was saying that I felt like listening to them again, and thanks for the reminder. nod

For the past couple of days, I've been copying everything to the clipboard before I hit PREVIEW POST or POST RESPONSE so that I don't lose it to the Org gremlins.

Culture Club probably crafted some of the best Pop tunes of the 80's. I place Boy George right under the top 3...MJ, Madonna and Prince.

My favorit album would have to be the first one. It still holds up in sound, nod and hasn't dated itself too much.

I agree with U!

They did the soundtrack of the 80's 2gether with Madge, Prince and Duran Duran (Bowie also had his input until 1985
lol ? )
