      No - Not at all - I was trying to mix 1980's Pop music with Defcon 2 and the
      Four minute warning - as always. Bring back the ROC !!!
      For instance here's a much more evocative version of Blue Moon
      by New Order.

          How could you not love a song about John Wayne having anal sex with an Indian squaw that got played on children's TV and Top of the Pops?
          Well as amusing as that might be for those with severely restricted intelligence
          I would imagine the answer would be "Because it is Tulipe!"

            Back in 1984 ...

            I know this might surprise some of you - it certainly surprised myself as I never liked Frankie Goes to Hollywood - then they released a hauntingly beautiful song "The Power of Love" an awesome song in its self and a video which I think is the best ever concerning the Nativity.

            Strange I know - but the Ways of the Lord often use the most unlikely .... even Frankie Goes to Hollywood ...

            I'm so in love with you
            Purge the soul
            Make love your goal

            [1]-The power of love
            A force from above
            Cleaning my soul
            Flame on burn desire
            Love with tongues of fire
            Purge the soul
            Make love your goal

            I'll protect you from the hooded claw
            Keep the vampires from your door
            When the chips are down I'll be around
            With my undying, death-defying
            Love for you

                You all know what the best ******* song of the 1980's is. You're all too scared too say it.

                It's not too late to say you're sorry.

                You know what they say about assumptions!

                      I think it got to number 1 or 2 in the charts!
