    Yeah guys come on, let's share some more pop music memories ehh.
    Remember this one from '90, with the Tom Cruise film, Days of thunder.
    Apparently this is where he first met and got naughty with Nicole Kidman!. :rolleyes:
    And look at the video, none of the audience seemed to give a shi*t lol.

    Never realised that when Toni Basil hit the charts in 1982 with Mickey she was 39 years old and is now the ripe old age of 81

    To be honest, Maria was a sort of one hit wonder, which is a shame to be honest.
    But I liked her back in '89-90, along with Any Grant as well. :rolleyes:

    The song 'Real Gone Kid' by Deacon Blue was written about Maria McKee. Little fact for you there

    This was a cover of an old song from 70s band Racey called Kitty, she just changed the name.

    I bought it aswell. Only found out recently that it is a rip off of Bowie's jean genie! Apparently a coincidence.

    Loved Sweet, Wizzard and Slade probably the era where I first listened and took a liking to music. Early 70s.,
    Carpenters as well. Karen one of the greatest drummers and imho greatest voice ever.
