I used to see this video on Friday Night Videos. No MTV needed. lol

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Never heard this song or saw the video before. Pretty cool.

One day back in childhood, me and a friend saw a cassette tape lieing on the ground at the playground. We couldn't see what artist it was but a free tape by anybody seemed cool. So we dove on it and started wrestling to try to grab it and take it from each other. We wrestled and struggled for a couple of minutes before I finally emerged victorious! And what did I have? A Wham tape -- ugh, what garbage, I thought. It was embarassing to have fought over it. Well, I brought it home, put it in the stereo, and I was blown away. It was really good. I still have the tape to this today. Too bad I don't have anything to play it on right now.

That's my Wham story.

Fantastic was a "fantastic" album, pun intended...

Still wished they had released "Nothing Looks the Same in the Light"... and included "Blue" in the original track listing, I'm still bothered by that.

I used to think Fantastic was so cheesy.

And that Wham! rap was just so bad, but... one day i actually listened to the words. And it's a somewhat social stance song lol and it's kind of a funky joint to.

Club Tropicana i still can't get behind though lol

Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener
