[kj] So 80s

I'll stick my neck right out here and confess to loving loads of 80s
pop. 9 of my top 10 favourite songs are 80s songs (I discovered that
when my dad in NZ asked me to write him a list). But I'm hardly stuck
in the past, though.



The majority of 80s pop is awful - most pop from any decade is shite
(look at the 70s!). But I love loads of it - Depeche Mode, Tears For
Fears, Human League (pre-84). I saw Yazoo live on Saturday night and
was just expecting some nostalgic tinkly synthpop. But I was floored by
it. Best sounding gig I've been to. It was seriously funky disco - and
there's nowt wrong with that.



Should I get my coat?

Yes, some of the dance stuff was very, very cool (especially the Orb)!
