Midnight Star: "Operator"

Don't you just love that track? I've downloaded the extended version a while ago and it rocks the house! I just love that early 80's electronic funky sound!

"Stay Here By My Side", "The Midas Touch" (-this song was actually slammin' for pure '80's funk/pop/r&b), "Extra! Extra!"...ahh...it warms the heart to bring back such memories.

...actually, I'm a bit scared now that I mentioned it. sad

"The operator was busy at the time
She told me,"hold please on the telephone line"
I told her "Hurry up cause I ain't got much time"

Yes,"Operator" by Midnight Star (1984) was da jam!! It had a cool video too. Do you remember the album 'Planetary Invasion'? It was their big follow-up to 1983's 'No Parking On The Dancefloor'.I dig the song "Scientific Love" too.

They always played this song at the roller rinks! I also really like 'Electricity'! Another rollerskating hit!
