Thank you Loup

It has been a very long time since I heard of Wet, Wet, Wet or Runrig release any singles or albums. I think both bands might have split up by now.

kat

Hi loup

I`ll take your word for it about Bow Wow Wow!

You probably did do something on The Monkees. As usual, I missed it.

Kat

Wet Wet Wet had a song out quite recently didn`t they. Having said that, it was either the group OR Marti Pellow going solo.

Another band I particularly remember are The Sweet.

Jane

hi kat... hi jane...


re: the monkees... i think the link had to do with the favourite TV series entry [which i haven't had a chance to update for ages...]... but an index page will certainly help checking things like that easily... it's i'm just trying to make myself start that index..

are the pet shop boys still around?!...

oh and i do remember the cure...



loup

another group before i go offline [or/and forget...]:

shakespeare sisters



loup

I think they've split up loup.

Jackie: At one time or another I've had most of their back catalogue on vinyl or tape. I'm upgrading to CD at the mo and I've got The Wall, and Echoes. It's hard to pick a favourite, but I would recommend, "Wish You Were Here".


...and the Pet Shop Boys are still recording.

hi kow... pity about shakespeare sisters...

anyway... just popped in to post this link:

Hi Jackie

Loup yes, I liked Shakespeares sisters too, yes it is a pity that they split up.

I wonder what happened to Anyor?

kat

Jackie: It was Marcella Detroit and the ex-Bananarama singer Siobhan Fahey.

Jedi: Is that Enya?

Yes Kow it was the artist Enya.

kat

and yes i remember now bananarama,try spellin that fast ..was she the tall leggy blonde one,siobhan?

hi jedi
i took my daughter to see wet wet wet,when she was 13

Jackie I nearly saw Runrig as I was at Loch Lohmond at one of their concerts. I have a video tape of the group. I sadly have not seen Wet, Wet, Wet. I do like Engima as well. When I was a teenager I used to go to heavy metal gigs in pubs.

kat

loup

Loup I remember Right Said Fred

I only remember 2 of their songs.

1 You are too sexy for my shirt
2 Season Fashion (Pet Porte)


I am not sure about the title of the second song I just remember some of the lines.

kat

"i'm too sexy for my shirt" yep certainly the most remembered song of "Right Said Fred"... also used in a TV ad if i'm not mistaken...

loup

Loup it's one of the songs that I keep on hearing in my head.

kat

'deeply dipply'was that the title of another one?
