The Big Shit Jukebox

Put up a Youtube of a pop record. Only rules is it has to brighten someone's day. That someone can be yourself. But don't cheat, test it on yourself first

With apologies to timbo who got me going with this one today :

the entire office is staring at me... they don't know why I am happy and nodding. The very concept of me having a small early doors boogie is beyond them. They probably think a war has been declared somewhere.

hahaha! is that usually the only thing that gets the office going? a nice War?


I like today. It's like AL has started his own breakfast show.


That is easily one of the best pop records of the 80's. But we could get trapped down that alley, with no mace and no brick in our handbag. If you get me? I don't.

You mean cornered in "1980's Alley" by Kajagoogoo, Curiosity Killed the Cat and Nick Kershaw... slowly advancing with them synthesizers that were like guitars, but holding them like baseball bats?

A bit like that?

Just like that... but the gang leader is that weird baldy bloke who was basically a mime artist (urg!) for Howard Jones. He's swinging those really obviously plastic chains that he used to ponce about in.

We have a connection today Al. You are in good form

This one always gets me singing along.

"embedding denied" I'm going to have that made into a t shirt

I know "the promise" though wookie. good call. get it working for Al FM

apparently he's a very hard boss

nah I'm ace

you were right... we are already wandering around 80's town with maps out and bum bags just asking to be mugged. Timbo will be furious he hates the 80s.

Quick! do some more

"special request going out to Old Rog and his midget navy..."

fantastic

I love these barmy cakes.

Oh Christ.

Sleepy DJ Alistaire wakes you up slowly into a coma on Snooze FM.

I'm ok about it if you take a taxi out of 80'sville back to Hotel 80's and tomorrow get on a plane to Betterecordston.

Oh no, it's turning into a serious music forum

embedding denied

I was trying to work out how a young shaver like Wookie would remember The Promise... then I remembered I heard it used as the end titles for a film recently.

But which fillum?

(it's not a quiz, I can't remember)

its at the end of napoleon dynamite

There you go!

Thanks mate, that was doing my head in a wee bit.

I'm determined to keep this patient alive. Stand back... charge defribulator... CLEAR!

With tracks like that Al, this thread will never die

Shit pop you say? Here you go (and yes, i do actually like it )

ooh nice chorus!

ah! jingly jangly memories

I wish I'd heard this morning.

One of my favourite tunes!

so is that nazi song in Cabaret 'tomorrow belongs to me'. You weirdo


More top pop :

I get a bit weepy but the best Bowie song IMO

here you go. it's a real toe tapper...

I thought I'd include a spanish translation so you can embarrass me in Ibiza again

cant find the original on youtube, so its on daily motion
