    yup but that wasnt really a bad song IMO, plus most videos from the 80s by todays look-at-me " culture are a novelty now thats seen as cool, so I dont think that counts as they were being deliberately corny ( and could sing ) unlike Lisa who I think is trying to come off as being Fa'real.

    Any one else agree ?

    I do. I don't think it is a bad song either IMHO.

    The group found their greatest success in America, with five Top 40 hits in the US, all charting between 1983 and 1987, including "Dance Hall Days" (#16 In the summer of 1984), "Everybody Have Fun Tonight" (#2 in 1986) and "Let's Go!" (#9 in 1987).
    wikipedia

    No mention about the UK.

    Ever hears this ?



    Some groups for some reason are big at home like Status Quo but dont translate abroad,Tom Waits was the opposite, he wasnt popular at all in the US , but had good fanbase abroad.

    Look at Dave Matthews Band , never heard of him at all till I saw him everywhere in midwest College towns.

    Another good example is Robbie Williams ( adored over here - u can exclude me but did O in the US other than rehab.

    I think part of it , is because musical tastes used to have a clearly defined image and group of listeners who identified with it, we dont get some of those identities you take for granted the same you dont get ours , though these days its a lot more broken down through media and pop culture than it was.

    Some of the stuff im listening to now for example, are things i would of never heard of in a million years before , esp since music neworks like Blip.

    Their Canadians disguised as Swedes !!

    Heres another song

    Now I personally dont think its that bad - in fact I liked it back in the day, but I have hard time taking it seriously , when the lead singer looks like he walked right out of Modor

    And another band that had some songs i liked that are clearly now looking for a miracle.

    A bad song that is so bad that it's good? This for me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZUn-KtTNmA&ob=av2e
    I always seem to listen to it when it comes on shuffle, I don't know why I really don't

    its sucks alright - and not in a good way

    but it just looks and feels likee any other song I see posing as pop these days to me , so it doesnt come over as obviously bad or quirky - just run of the mill IMO.

    just my 2 cents.
