I hope the Legs were watching this and sneering.

Perhaps whilst all sitting in a large hot tub.

ISTR they had some late-night specials.
ah that'll be it then. I'd kind of sussed what the song was about before the ban but then when I saw the video, it confirmed it all!

That AC/DC song "Let's Get It Up" - I'm assuming it's about trying to restart a crashed computer?

Classic example of a fat bloke thinking a beard gives him a jawline.

Ride Like The Wind is his best song. This is a nice bit of MOR though.

I saw a meme somewhere the other day showing how Christopher Cross had managed to look like both members of Tenacious D in the course of his career. Made me chuckle.

They changed the chart cut off point from Saturday to Friday for the first couple of months of 1982. So a TOTP's appearance would affect the next week's chart. Hence -20-18-3 Lot's of other songs had similar odd chart runs at the time. Madness 'Cardiac Arrest' did a -26-28-14 for instance.

Nope, your wrong Sgt - it was about an ill fated camping trip they made where they encountered some right old problems with the tent.
