Dancing In The Dark [Blaster Mix]
Bruce Springsteen
#1980s #America #USA #rock

Here's Bruce Springsteen with the rarely-heard 12" version of his classic Dancing in the Dark. Blue jeans and black leather jackets ahoy!
When I argue I see shapes
Idlewild
#1990s #rock #Scotland

I don't know Idlewild at all, but I do love this song of theirs, especially the bit where half of the instruments disappear and it builds back up again!
Seconds of Fame
Frisby
#rock #1990s #indie

A literally-unknown band called Frisby had this song on a magazine (possibly VOX Magazine) compilation CD at some time in the 1990s. I cannot find a single mention of this band on the Internet. How about that?!
Shut Up and Kiss Me
Mary Chapin Carpenter
#1990s #femme #rock #country

Just one from my childhood. Mary Chapin Carpenter with Shut Up and Kiss Me, from 1994.
Dizzy
Vic Reeves & the Wonderstuff
#1990s #rock #England #Britain

Vic Reeves & the Wonder Stuff with their bizarre 1991 hit Dizzy. The video for this, which I had recorded off TV on a VHS and therefore saw many times, was something else.
It's Only Natural
Crowded House
#1990s #rock

There was a moment in the early '90s when you couldn't escape this song. It seemed to be everywhere. Australian songsters Crowded House with It's Only Natural, which back then I heard as "it's so unnatural".
#rock #bowie

Bowie with his usual incredible style and charisma, performing his early 80s classic, Ashes to Ashes:

Stop Your Sobbing
The Pretenders
#1970s #rock

The Pretenders with their hit Stop Your Sobbing. I'd do anything for Chrissie Hynde, when she was young. Gorgeous.
Every Breath You Take [Purrfection Version]
The Police
#1980s #rock

"Every breath you take,
Every creamy cake,
Every juicy steak,
Every bun you bake,
Every meal you make,
I'll be watching you."

The Police with their 1983 classic, Every Breath You Take, here in a remixed version that includes the alternative lyrics that Sting recorded for Spitting Image.
