June 15, 20223 yr 2 more great songs, though I didn't quite vote for George. I had Sometimes down as a Top 10 contender!
June 15, 20223 yr That is not how I remember the George Harrison video. I’m not sure what I do remember it being like but it wasn’t that! Idk if that was a different version, but I remember this one better, mainly for the talking moose head :lol: _71w4UA2Oxo Such a bop *.
June 15, 20223 yr Glad I managed to sneak George into my votes! I discovered it via being a Billboard Hot 100 #1 and was shocked that he'd had a chart topper in the U.S. as late as 1987 :o tune. 'Sometimes' is great <3 I need to delve deeper into Erasure really as I like everything I know.
June 15, 20223 yr Absolutly love George Harrison and like Erasure but like some of their other tracks more!
June 16, 20223 yr George is fab and always will be. As was his follow-up When We Was Fab, which had a great 60's-trbute video. I think there were 2 videos one for UK one for US. MTV maybe didnt like the first one, who knows....! A classic Erasure there too. Chains Of Love, A Little Respect, Blue Savannah just some of their other classics....and Don't Go, Only You if we count Vince's Yazoo classics too...

June 16, 20223 yr 'Need You Tonight' is a tune, first came across that on Coyote Ugly. 'Live To Tell' is brilliant as well. One of Madonna's best ballads imo!
June 16, 20223 yr Congrats to Delta and Björk having the taste. Edited June 16, 20223 yr by JackJones
June 16, 20223 yr Need You Tonight is brill. Not mad about Live To Tell - think Madonna’s best song in the rate is still to come.
June 16, 20223 yr I actually didn't know 'Got My Mind Set On You' was a George Harrison song...! (well, it isn't really as it's a cover but it's the only version that's charted in the UK so I assume that is the version of it that I know)
June 16, 20223 yr Shame Live To Tell didn’t make the top 20, Madonna’s best ballad for me I think, until The Power of Good-Bye at least. Really stunning track.
June 17, 20223 yr INXS were brilliant and Need U Tonight is them at their best, one of the most exciting contests outside a stadium gig I've seen was INXS, Michael Hutchence was an amazing frontman. Madonna's Live To Tell is just lovely, one of her best ballads, and Madge also an amazing live performer back in the day. I still recall the concert I was at when the BBC made the very unwise mistake to advise her that as the concert was being broadcast live on Radio 1 that she needed to watch her language. Red flag to a bull. Cue the F word deliberately used dozens of times in between songs. Anyone telling Madonna she can't do something is just going to make her do it on principle....
June 17, 20223 yr Oh Live to Tell gone :/ really think it was gonna be the ultimate winner :/ so sad, Live to Tell is not only Madonna's best song ever, it's easily the best song of the 80s for me so very sad to see it go so early, and ultimately very very very very very disappointed at Buzzjack :D shame on you :D think I'm giving up on this rate/rates in general :D
