RE: Three-Tune Thursday: 44 Years Ago, Yikes!

Very nice tunes, the OMD tune sounds like Enola Gay too, but with different lyrics! I really liked Garbage back in the day, stupid girl was my fav tune. I wasn't really an album type of guy back then either, they were too expensive for a working class lad like me who spent all his wages on drink, drugs and saved money by not answering the door to the tv licensing man.

I loved OMD until after Maid of Orleans and they changed direction to one I wasn't into!

Garbage, the first album, that is great, well most of it. Again I lost interest after Version 2. They lost that hard gritty edge that made them stand out. James Bond does that to a Shirley.

This stinks of living in the UK?

you are right, it takes a lot to get into Maid of Orleans. I do wonder how they came up with that, after Enola Gay !

Yeah, they were gritty and edgy to start with, it was their main appeal.

I was in the UK back then, living in a council flat. We cant avoid the tv license so easily here in Germany. You have real freedom there! LOL

Don't tell me that bullshit is in Germany too? I don't pay it now, as I only watch Netflix.

Ridiculous idea.., run if you see one.., its got alien technology inside brought back from the future.

Good job! I remember they tried make you think they could detect if you had a TV in your house 😅 Love those stuck on plastic things to the van!

Touch those with your bare hands and you turn to vapour, its that advanced!
