Effete pretty-boy UK synth-wimps usually don't lift my skirt, but this was one of my favourite singles back then, and I think it still holds up quite nicely. | |

That's one of the Big 3 of '80s Pop IMO. It's flawless.  "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

Icicle, I love this song. But I love most of Tears For Fears big singles anyway. | |

 Is the song "Me and my big ideas" from that album, that`s a beautiful song, especially Oleta Adams` vocals. | |

I liked this song in the mid 80s, but I would rather not here it now actually.
AHah did you guys here when Nas sampled this song? | |

My favorite of theirs, too. I never liked them for years but got into them recently. I'm not saying I'm hoping for a revival, but I like their hits. | |

They already started the revival, and it's been great! Everybody Loves a Happy Ending, their comeback album, was one of the best of 2004 IMO. I love "Head Over Heels" as well, but "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" is my favorite (with "Sowing the Seeds of Love" after that). HOH would be #3.

So I take it you don't strut your stuff to Erasure? Oh, wait, you said "pretty". Guess that rules them out. Don't you think Andy Bell looks like a pissed off hairdresser?There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying.

Oh yeah!...best thing they ever did, IMO. This was the song that made me want to learn piano. [Edited 10/30/06 14:36pm] | |

But I had the 7" double pack too! And that had the way cool Urban Mix on it. . |
