Right then !!! I know for a fact there's a few members in here of a certain age . So i wan't to know .....who was a New Romantic ? . Who wore those god awful 7 pleat trousers ? . Who had floppy hair ? Who thought Tony Hadley was a god . Own up .....lets be having you .

I only ask because i have been tuned into BBC4 all night and Flock of Seagulls has featured in two programmes in a row . What a load of pretentious pish . As was most of the music of that Ilk at the time .

I'm too young myself. Black dog was probably into it, but won't admit it.

I'm old enough to know what's being referred to, but young enough to have not had anything to do with it.

Watch the Wedding Singer if you don't know it. It's more American based but it's the same kind of thing and the same kind of era

The wedding singer was funny for all the references, I even got the 'well spit my grit' reference from the sitcom Alice, as regards new rimance I liked the music at times but was too young to be of an age where I dressed up that way.............should I have wished to of course
