Going to have to start writing the song names down above the video.
There's two videos in the Christmas thread that are gone.

One set the video to private: All I wrote was "Another 90's Classic". I don't remember what it was and being classic could be anything heh

Pet Shop Boys - What Have I Done To Deserve This?

[Buzz]

There was one DJ at KROQ that discovered a lot of 80s bands and played their stuff on the air for the first time. Rodney Bingenheimer, "Rodney on the ROQ".

"He has been described as the first DJ to play many up-and-coming bands, including the Runaways, Blondie, the Ramones, the Pandoras, the Hollywood Squares, Social Distortion, Van Halen, Duran Duran, Oasis, the Donnas, No Doubt, Dramarama, the Offspring, the Go-Go's, Germs, the B-52's, X, Sex Pistols, Teenage Fanclub, the Smiths, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and others."

good to know...there was also a Rodney Bingenheimer in Europe (England) who promoted small, unknown bands...John Peel had a weekly radio show on BFBS during the 1960s and 1990s, which he dedicated exclusively to punk and alternative bands...additionally, he organized the so-called "Peel Sessions" for these bands, enabling them to record and release their own tracks on vinyl despite their lack of resources. Here is an example (its a *cough* Gary Glitter cover *cough*)

Why the coughs? I don't get it. It's a popular song.

Another one gets in trouble for the forbidden fruit. Makes you wonder how many men would do it if they knew they would never get in trouble for it.

It does seem weird to me that they have these prosecutions 35 years later. Statutes of limitations typically are far far shorter than that because of evidence problems. Murder was the only one I knew of that had no statute of limitations.

Where I am the statute of limitation for homicide, rape, assault, kidnapping etc is four years. If you stabbed somebody and raped them you could brag about it five years later with no problems. But there is none (now) for sex with a child, since 2020. It's in the same category as first degree premeditated murder. Society seems to be going bananas about this. Stab a child with a knife or shoot them with a gun and you are safe from prosecution after four years. Doing anything sexual with them - you can be prosecuted 50 years later.

Yup. Garry Glitter a few of his songs were covered by other bands later on down the road.
Joan Jett covered a few of his songs.

I understand how they created this video for the most part, after watching it a few times - back and forth and back - zoom in zoom out. Now my brain hurts 😊

Officer Obtuse and Laddi sing a song about being best friends!

I got this from a DVD collection of the Icelandic comedian Laddi.
