Hot Sluts Of The Day!
The Escape Club, the British band from the 1980s who made the song that will live on for the rest of eternity on band.
In the past couple of weeks, "Wild Wild West" has played on the Sirius 80s station at least 300 times, it has randomly played on my iTunes around 3 times and when I was getting gas the other day, a car pulled up across from mine and the really hot driver was blasting it. That is a sign! "Wild Wild West" is the song of my life. I'll take it. I'd rather think of this song when I read the words "Wild Wild West" than think of that mess of a movie starring Will Smith and Kevin Kline. (But that mess of a movie does have Kevin Kline in drag in it so it gets a few points for that.)
The Escape Club had a few smaller hits after "Wild Wild West" and then they broke up in the 90s. Two of the members got back together in 2009 and put out a new album and played a few shows, but they stopped, because they got annoyed by every single one of their audiences screaming "We want Wild Wild West! Just play that for the next 2 hours!" on a loop. I made that last part up.
Here's the video for WWW, which was banned in the UK. No, it wasn't banned for being anti-torso and it wasn't banned because those arm snakes are extra creepy. It was banned for being sexist and offensive.
And The Escape Club's original band name was: TAINT. Case closed!

This song's been blowing up on SiriusXM 1st Wave (Classic Alternative), too, although I clearly remember hearing it on the local Top 40/Pop station as a kid.
This song came out when I was 7 years old and I thought it was the shit! I had the cassette single and everything!
My 10/11 year old self used to roller skate to this hot song in 1988/1989. Good times, good memories.
I loved this song. And it's funny but I just never in my teenage mind imagined that this was sexist. Just creepy. I actually don't see it now either. I suppose all the females are just disembodied body parts ... but come on.... it's just a creepy cool gimmick.
How funny. BF and I were just talking about them last night. Only we were thinking of "What's On Your Mind."
"duhn duhn duhn duhn duhn, duhn... Pure Energy!"
WWWest takes me straight back to college days and the pavilion dances. I hated the song, but if somebody asked me to dance to it with them, I obliged.
Yes, I was a fan!

I like The Pet Shop Boy's "Go West" much better. If you're at another gas station and a really hot driver pulls up and is blasting "Go West" you can just hop in his backseat and plan to make a night of it.

Ha!! That was a brilliant cover of the Village People classic. The vidoe was cool too with all that very deco, very gay Soviet-esque imagery.

Again, pipe down, Fatty.
Go and waddle to the pantry, stick some cake in your gaping maw and pick some crabs out of your mound and use 'em as sprinkles.

SHE'S SO MEAN
AH DON'T CAAAH
Ah, immortally perfect pop, a la "My Sharona." My all-dyke band used to cover WWW, was always a crowd fav. Heck, people even line-danced to the thing in queer country bars!
No shame in Escape Club having only one immortal hit - in fact I'd take that any day over a mountain of today's instantly forgettable schlock from Beyonce/Riri/etc ..

Never heard of them, checked out the video and now i know why.
I understand it's a redundant remark but: that is gay.

In Europe`s defence, "Taint" means "Tan" or "Hue" over there, although I like the American interpretation better....Sadly I know this song. Und would probably sing along...And while we are talking about old shit, I had a walk down memory lane listening to Erasure all evening yesterday. What happened to them?
OMG! Who knew Tom Hanks could sing?
I remember the song but not the vid.
I remember thinking that the drummer (dude with ponytail) was really hot.
Hmmm don't recall this one. I used to watch a lot of MTV, but I was also very, very busy then.
I remember this! I thought the video was awesome and creative at the time. Remember The Pet Shop Boys? (I loved them, too)
My vision of world peace: a chicken in every pot, and pot for all us chickens...and weasels.
