A scene from a film circa 1982.
We drove down george street, en route to wendy's.
Glenn campbell was on the radio singing about cleaning his gun
And dreaming of galveston.
"what's this? " she said.
"it's hall & oates or nothing for me."
Of course, this was pre-house nation
And I asked her "what is anyone going to remember this decade for? "
She paused for a second, then said:
"waffle cardigans, wentworth jail,
Rah-rah skirts straight out of hell,
Andrew ? ? ? and bmx bikes,
Chernenko and miners' strikes,
Nikky kershaw and red ken,
Peter tatchell and dirty den,
Mark king slapped his bass,
And early issues of the face,
Sigue sigue sputnik, margaret thatcher,
Toto coelo, and spycatcher,
E.t., arthur, elmo's fire,
Not a patch on billy liar,
Phil redmond and transformers,
Tin-tin duffy in leg-warmers,
Stu damer, evil tel,
Roger hebert, what a pal,
Steven waldorf, jerry gross,
Do the hucklebuck by coast to coast,
Steve blacknell on the telly,
The classic beard of altobelli,
Leon klinghofer, baby duck(? ),
Blonde highlights, flourescent sock,
Steve lynex and gordon smith,
Martin fry grew a quiff,
Haysi fantayzee, videotech,
Shakey drove us crazy, what the heck,
Hazel o'connor in breaking glass,
Gripper stebson's in the class."
And I said, "i don't remember any of that. if you can remember the '80s you weren't there. uh, you know, I remember scott crolla in his furry freak brothers t-shirt, if that's anything."
Saint Etienne is an English alternative dance act, active since 1990. The trio consists of Sarah Cracknell (vocals), Bob Stanley (keyboards, guitar) and Pete Wiggs (bass, keyboards). The band's name derives from the French football club AS Saint-Etienne, runner-up in the European Cup in the 1970s. Saint Etienne's music is characterized by a nostalgic and sophisticated sound, blending elements of synthpop, indie pop, house and lounge music. Their albums are often inspired by themes such as British popular culture of the 1960s and 1970s, cinema and fashion. Among their most well-known songs are "Only Love Can Break Your Heart", "Nothing Can Stop Us" and "Avenue". Saint Etienne has collaborated with numerous artists, including Jarvis Cocker of Pulp and The Divine Comedy.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
