After the Fire: Der Kommisar

REB

That song was actually a cover song, of a German artist- Falco, & it was originally a rap song.
After The Fire were a religious band I believe- all I remember about the clip was the massive tarantula!

Yeah I know Punky, I remember the Falco version.

Is it just me or does that song get "scaringly" close to Rick James' "Superfreak" in places?

No I can see that. Or should I say...hear it.

Throw in your "Star Trekkin and C+C Music Factory" and the scales of taste fall in my favour.And I haven't even mentioned "Transvision Vamp". I dont recall requesting any Kenny G in my list.Digging up old bones there.( Embarassing bones,but old one's.)

My list wins.

Agreed. Bucks Fizz? You are lucky to be too young to remember their brief glory day Booney but let me say this, they made Abba look hard core!

Wow that was actually very difficult.
Here's the 20 I submitted. I picked them as much with a view to winning as I did because I like them. So I sold out basically
I could have picked at least 4 Pulp songs for instance. I nearly didn't put 'Hurt' in because it's such a cliche, but bugger it, it is genius.

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Breathless
Pulp - This is Hardcore
Deus - Instant Street
Kate Bush - Cloudbusting
Sarah Blasko - Explain
Bjork - All is Full of Love
Guns n Roses - November Rain
New Order - Touched by the Hand of God
Jack Frost - Every Hour God Sends
Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazlewood - Jackson
Jesus & Mary Chain - Sometimes Always
Weird Al Jankovich - Bob
Frankie Goes to Hollywood - The Power of Love
Bronski Beat - Smalltown Boy
Suede - The Wild Ones
Joy Division - Atmosphere
Grant Lee Buffalo - Fuzzy
Gnarls Barkley - Crazy
Chemical Brothers - Star Guitar
Johnny Cash - Hurt

Thanks WGT, it's nice to receive some complimentary feedback ... Usually the only female correspondence is from that Abba-Loving-Wharfy, Falcon Chick!!
