Culture Club, JMC, Haircut 100, Genesis, China Crisis, The Smiths w/ Sandie Shaw

Is it weird for me to admit that I actually like Culture Club? C'mon... sure their videos showed the world what Boy George was really like, but can you really deny that their music was really, really good?

"Victims" - Culture Club



One of my favorite bands of all time, let alone from the 80s.

"You Trip Me Up" - The Jesus And Mary Chain



You have to watch this video for the fact that it looks like these guys had never been in front of a camera before. Once again, their music way outshined their videos, but it's fun just the same.

"Love Plus One" - Haircut 100



Just to show everyone I am a man of my word, I have put this next video here to appease the "non-new-wave" crowd. It's one of the only songs from Genesis that I like that has a video. Where oh where did Peter Gabriel go?

"Abacab" - Genesis



This video was taken from a Live German Performance back in the 80's. I don't think CC did a video for this song. I have no freakin' idea why.

"Black Man Ray" - China Crisis



This is too weird to NOT put up. It's a children's show from 1984 called "Charlie's Bus". I take it, it's from England. Umm... today's episode stars... wait for it... The Smiths. Yes, The Smiths. Morrissey and the Smiths. Ok, got it yet? Alright, this also has Sandie Shaw ("Puppet On A String" fame) singing a Smiths rarity "Jeane". It's a rarity because it can only be found on Smiths bootlegs and such. Enjoy.
