Remember when George Michael was arrested by the LAPD for being in a men’s room with another individual? The next day THE SUN published a map showing all the public conveniences within a mile radius of his London home.

Me. And you added the ones not on the top of my head. Accept the Jazz Butchers; don’t know them.
Yeah…the Christians; what a voice their singer had!
Good one, Alley!

Anybody for the Housemartins?
That’s the last for me!

Happy Mondays

One of my fav’s. Crowded House

Sweetness…still crushing pretty heads!

Nah, I was just kidding - I actually hate Modern Talking. Those guys recently tried to make a comeback (after years of fighting) and guess what? It didn’t last long and they seperated again, their (continued) fighting dragged through the tabloids 'til today.
One half, Mr. Bohlen, is a very (in)famous writer/producer/entertainer in Germany, now being accused of stealing from other songs for some of his songs he wrote for others.
Did like the one’s mentioned in your list, too.
