I would never have known it was him.

A bit of Big Audio Dynamite to cheer me up -anyone else remember this quirky song from the mid-80's? It's also a very interesting video -lots going on!

Have you seen Alison Moyet lately Di, she was on Later with Jools Holland earlier this year, I actually tuned in while she was singing and I didn't recognise her, she's lost so much weight,, looks a different person altogether

If I remember rightly she had sleek long hair, another thing which made her hard to place at first

They were a one hit wonder, if you'd have blinked you'd have missed them unless you read the music press. Have you heard of this Russian girl group "Pussy Riot" in trouble with the law at the moment...for this performance in a church.
