That's one of my top ten. I know I have to include Simple minds - 'Alive and Kicking'.

 

[redbenjoe]

that dire straits song also has a hilarious video --
with the actual band -
and with the funny cartoon characters -- the mover dudes

That's one of my top ten. I know I have to include Simple minds - 'Alive and Kicking'.

When I went shopping around for a component system in 80's that Alive and Kicking song was what I loved to test them with

 

[stormsven]

Hard to tell top 10. Too many was outhere. But one of my ever favorites - Alphaville - Sounds like a melody

 

[bill]

Up the down escalator chameleons
Love song simple minds
Killing moon echo and the bunny men
I wanna be adored stone roses
Atmosphere Joy division
I will follow U2
Blue Monday new order
Fade to grey. Visage
Just like honey Jesus and the marychain
Siouxsie and the banshees happy house .


Back to the batcave.........
