'Party Fears Two'. One of the stand out songs of the year for me. RIP Billy.

Still another 30 minutes of this!
Not enough time. They should play every song from 82 IMO.

Have to admit my eyes are drawn less to Billy and more to the lady with the bow tie playing the keyboard one-handed.

Party Fears Two is superb.


Club Country is more betterer though.

Sulk by The Associates was one of the best albums of 1982 and possibly the most original.

One of the few records of the time where Trevor Horn must've thought, "Wish I'd made that".

Somehow missed it ToTP at the time but caught it as The "Week Ending" theme from Radio 4

Associates. 100% one of the highlights of 1982. Junior, not!

Mama Used To Say is a wonderful track but the sound on this performance is awful for some reason.

I have to confess I used to get a bit mixed up between Junior and David Grant from Linx at the time.

How can a 1987 duet be a follow-up to a 1982 hit?!?!

Well, they're interchangeable. And both cr*p! IMO of course!

Oh yeah! My fave DD song. Love it.

SLB's hair is excellent here. Possibly more important even than the song!

I'm assuming Simon Le Bon didn't get that suit tailored.

And there's Craig Fairbrass behind on the right wearing the T-shirt with green shoulders.

Even Bowie with his cut-up lyrics must've looked at Duran and thought, "What the **** are you singing about?!"
