I had totally forgotten that she recorded that track, too. At least here - that's my impression - the original version by Umberto Tozzi was far more popular. My memory might betray me, but I don't think so. "Self control" was a huge hit and is still the song that most people think of when she gets mentioned.

I know the original Tozzi version was huge. I don't know where "here" is, but in Australia Laura Branigan's version was massive.

"Self Control" was also popular and a far superior track, but I reckon most Aussies of my vintage would recognize her more from "Gloria".

Talking about "Self Control", I'll take any opportunity to post this Killer cover. 

Johnny Hates Jazz - Shattered Dreams. 

Not quite AOR, but close.

Fuck I love this song. A true time machine track for me.

Isn't it from that "fuck Joe Biden" chant and the Leftist reporter tried to cover it up by saying the crowd were chanting "Let's Go Brandon"?  So now everyone chants "Let's go Brandon" to point out bias in the media and to tell Biden what they think. It's pretty funny. 🤣

I didn't know. Hilarious.

Okay, so I'll address the "elephant" in the room.

I don't know how many profile pictures Dan has had over the years, but for as long as I've been a member, it's always been "Stewie".

I always felt respect and fear whenever I saw that image in the forum.

i guess the question is, who is Brandon? and why so passionate mate?

Divinyls - Back to the Wall.

A legendary Aussie band with many hits.

This track would come close to my favourite. Maybe tied with "All the Boys in Town".

I heard this cover by Paul Dempsey from another solid Aussie Pop/Rock band called "Something For Kate" on the radio last week.

I've mentioned it before, but imagine being able to stand up with an acoustic guitar and pull this out.

Hmmm.

One of my earlier posts and a recent Joe Rogan clip.

And yes, I know China has had many lives lost as a result of this virus, but maybe the CCP took that into account and decided that they have the numbers population wise, to still come out on top. An acceptable loss considering the hugely successful softening up of the West.

Do not underestimate the ruthlessness of the CCP and they're quite happy to play the long game.

The recruitment clips shown in the PJW video are insane and frightening. 

 

I meant to post this in the "Corona" thread, but this one works too.

There's no doubt that Left Wing commentators and Right Wing commentators are hugely biased.

I just, sincerely, seem to agree with the Right Wing ones more often.

Here's another clip from Crowder and one from another Right Wing commentator.

I say "Right Wing", but to me it's common sense.

The part in the PJW video that shows the difference between the Chinese and US military recruitment videos, says it all.

Whether we like it or not, if the US falls, we all fall.

Meanwhile, the "West" has been severely weakened in all aspects of society by a virus that originated in a Chinese lab.

We all better start learning Mandarin.

Great ain't it?

I loved the original. It was on TV down here.

Winnie Cooper has matured quite nicely over the years.

So who is right? Darkstone, or every government in the world?

Darkstone, of course.

Great question. 

It's something unimaginable, but I can picture people in the 1920's pondering if there would be a WWII and who would be involved. 

There's a quote that's attributed to Albert Einstein,

"I do not know with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."

That sums it up.

As for who vs who, I'd like to think it would be, a coalition of the rest of the World vs the evil Axis of Canada and New Zealand.

Fuck 'em.

Doesn't the whole world know now it came from the lab? Intentional or not. I'm surprised there's still any alternate belief? Surely not, still? 

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's been recognized as fact. The only question up for debate is whether it was accidentally leaked from the lab or intentionally unleashed.

But hey, we're talking about China here, so I don't think anything dodgy is going on. 

I'll be very interested to see who's on vocal duties.

DGE?

He may recruit James Christian and make it a "House of Lords" pseudo reunion album.

pretty disrespectful comment to the 5 million people that have died and the millions of families affected.

Let's just move on (yet again) and agree to disagree 

I don't think it was disrespectful at all. You asked the question. Perhaps that question itself was disrespectful to the ones who have succumbed to covid?

I will however, gladly agree to disagree with you.

still don't understand what the issue is with just getting the vaccine. 

took about 30 mins put of my time (2 × 15). its done now.

Went to my first gig at the weekend. 

Simply, for me, the issue is that I was TOLD to do it.

 How do you prove you've had COVID ? 

Surely, that question alone says it all.

If this virus was such a plague on humanity that it's been touted to be, causing major World wide social, financial and mental turmoil, then nobody would have to prove they've had it because they would be dead.

People throughout history haven't had to prove that they've had Bubonic Plague, Ebola, Malaria, Polio, Gonnorhea, Syphilis, etc.

That's some profound, philosophical shit right there.

so this show comes on in Canada and Australia? and probably everywhere else?

We get it here, but I mainly watch the compilations on youtube. 

I've never been to Canada, but I think our cultures would be quite similar, with regards to the UK/US influence. Also, we seem to have same shit stirring sense of humor.*

*We don't however, say "aboot" when we mean "about" and we don't end every statement with "eh".

Well... not the hottest in the history of the world. But maybe the hottest in the history of game/panel shows. 

You just reminded me of Vanna White.

Rachel Rileys' predecessor on "Countdown", Carol Vorderman wasn't too shabby either.

In addition to these, I also liked “Sowing the Seeds of Love”. I’m kind of looking forward to some new music from them.

I probably also should have added "Mad World" to my post.

But now that we're here, rest in peace Sean Lock. The show will never be the same without him. I miss him so much already. 

Yeah, it was quite a shock to lose him and Norm Macdonald recently.

As someone who was forced into this cunt of a vaccine as a job requirement, I'm not laughing out loud at all mate.

I've never seen an episode of Married with Children, the only thing I know is that in one episode Kelly tries to be in the music video for a band called The Guttercats.  The band was an actual unsigned act gigging the sunset strip back in the day, they have a pretty good 4-song demo tape floating on the net!

 

Absolutely spot on mate. That was one of the best episodes.

"Anthrax" also appeared in an episode.

Rachel Riley is one of the hottest chicks ever in the history of the world!

Yes, that is interesting. 

Vandenberg is a win and Mats Leven is a double win!

We'll see.

I'm optimistic. 

I'll take any excuse to post these Mats Leven/Gus G tracks again.

I can't find "Down 2 Bizniz" by "Swedish Erotica" on youtube, but that is one of the alltime great Sleaze tracks.
