WOS-in-perpetuity Ted, who should be dead. One of the stupidest hits of the decade (which is saying something)

pre-emptive WOS for "I Wanna Be a Cowboy", which we're apparently gonna be, er, saddled with. Yo, yo, yo.

I concur.

VHM to another great video, "Harlem Shuffle," which I adored when it came out.  Took me several weeks to learn it was a cover.

good thing it is -- if Mick had written a song about Harlem with the phrase "monkey shine" in it in 1986... he'd've been, er, lynched.

Is that phrase in there?  I thought it was "do the monkey time," as in the Major Lance song.

I think it's "time" in the original; I've always thought Mick m'greened it.

Gaz, do you remember long ago giving me a b-day gift of an 80's comp CD called Squeeze The Cheese?  This was naturally featured, and I guess it qualifies as a Guilty Pleasure.  I think it would be a stretch to call it a Turkey.

even the person who requested it conceded that "some people hate it".

Actually, I think Falco should put a saddle on Ted and they should both get out of Dodge.

I lurve me some Max Headroom, and I pretty much liked Art of Noise, too, but these aren't really two great tastes that taste great together.
