I'd rather have seen Pluto than Julio.

I'm sure I bought this Julio single for my mum. It must have been for Mother's Day judging by the time of year.

I'm naming no names. You just never know who's reading.
To be honest I didn't have a name in mind, just a rather more general vibe on "things" in early 1982.
In the eighties, Julio's hide was highly sought after by high-end shoe designers due to its combination of suppleness & unusual colouring. He was nearly hunted to extinction before being designated a protected species.

Rich, Corinthian leather
Depeche Mode official policy at this time was that both pronunciations were correct, although they apparently preferred the French sounding version.

Amazingly, they were considered cool. I blame the 70's and Thatcher.

You got it!
Haircut 100 is a vast improvement on Julio who was the only downside of the show so far
They must have been awfully warm in all those layers tho

He had a duet with Willie Nelson with 'To All the Girls I've Loved Before' in '84.

He had a duet with Stevie Wonder which reached No5 in late summer 1988. Remember "My Love"? That was a decent track.
why did every band have to be styled so much back then, dunno who they got their clothes from, certainly not what kids were wearing back then

My thoughts exactly, although I didn't hear it for the first time until about 1998.
