Holly Johnson is AWOL but boy do I still love this song. What a blast it would've been to have seen this.

Awesome. How exciting it would have been to be there! Where did the quarter century go? Those dancers hadn't even been born when we were dancing to Frankie...

Uh-oh! Your taking me back to days perhaps best forgotten.

I always had a love/hate thing with Trevor Horn. This was one of the loves:

While we are hanging around the late 70's and the 80's:

And the incomparable Mr.Dolby.

Sorry for thread jacking, but I'm an old Electroboy.

Thanks, Tom. That just ate an hour and a half of the night for me. Smile Smile I really need to learn to not click on the YouTube links.

BTW, here's my vote for favorite Trevor Horn project:

Er....the one on the right. The other bloke is another Mike, and he also lives in Tokyo and we're still good friends. He still makes music under the name of Blip Pilot.

Ah, those heady, creative days of my youth. The keyboard ties were bad enough, but the hair! THE HAIR! Thankfully, I don't have much left now.

Maiku.

I too played bass keyboard in an electronic band in Somerset called Asimovs Eclectic.

This is one of our songs written by me and Justin who played electronic drums. Justin went on to be the marketing director for a Hospital in Ruislip.

Quadrant

The cyborgs are all barking at the trees for all to see,
Quadrant mania, quadrant, quadrant, quadrant.


REPEAT

In stellar dysphasia we entreat our neighbours set the robots free.
Quadrant mania, quadrant, quadrant, quadrant.

REPEAT

We are not lunar and we would sooner see the captives running like machines.
Quadrant mania, quadrant, quadrant, quadrant.

REPEAT

Take my hand and we'll explore the galaxy there's room in my podule as you will plainly see.
Quadrant mania, quadrant, quadrant, quadrant.

REPEAT

Through the quiet zone, hear venutians moan. On to Ryglos using Antorian lip gloss.
Quadrant mania, quadrant, quadrant, quadrant.

REPEAT

This tale begins no end starts again to end again. No beginning no end all again to end no start no end - All infinity sing as through space we wend.
Quadrant mania, quadrant, quadrant, quadrant.


I know DB has a "no political" postings rule but I felt the song was worth sharing.

Yeah, the line "On to Ryglos using Antorian lip gloss. " really pushes the limit.
