Let me change the thread title so it isn't so much a mystery... I'll give it a listen later, I'm intrigued tho not surprised. It's a great pairing when you think about it. BTW, who's that in your icon...Souxsie Soix or Vanessa Paradis? Looks like both, but I wanna see.  | |

Even though I had no idea who John Lydon was at the time when I first heard it back in '84. 
My avatar pic is indeed Siouxsie Sioux:  | |

My avatar pic is indeed Siouxsie Sioux: Glad to know I got it right. I've been wondering about it when I see your icon.
You didn't know he was the scary Sex Pistol guy? 84 was when the punkers and the rappers still hung out. I recall the whole overlap. Good times. [Edited 7/8/09 8:36am] | |

[Edited 7/8/09 8:36am] I hardly knew anything about anything back then. Among my small circle of friends, it was all about hip hop and Prince in 1984. I didn't start listening and learning about other types of music until college really. | |

In retrospect, it's so funny to look at how Afrika, the Furious Five, etc dressed up. That was quite punk!  | |

True, in the early videos it was all leather and spikes, but by the mid 80s rappers started dressing down to look more street. | |

Doesn't look like Vanessa Paradis at all IMO.With a very special thank you to Tina: Is hammer already absolute, how much some people verändern...ICH hope is never so I will be! And if, then I hope that I would then have wen in my environment who joins me in the A.... | |

John Lydon did a lot of interesting music back in the early 80s like this duet and the Metal Box and The Flowers Of Romance Public Image Ltd. albums. All great stuff. | |
