July 11, 200916 yr youd knock tubeway army, the knack, pil and squeeze? :lol: I detested Tubeway Army! The Knack's My Sharona - 'orrible - I actually did buy at the time ... but looking back I feel so foolish. There are some one-hit wonders I love - like The Vapours' Turning Japanese - but The Knack just don't do it for me. Squeeze - I actually love most things they've done EXCEPT Up The Junction - I can't explain why - I just hate that song - probably because I hated the Dennis Waterman film as well - the whole bundle! YUK! PIL - I remember a bloke I was at Poly with and he did an animated film to the song 'Public Image' and I like that one song alone. Norma Edited July 11, 200916 yr by Norma_Snockers
