Every so often Huzb gets nostalgic and starts playing songs he remembers from his youth, a lot of which were huge hits in the UK and never made it across the pond. Most of this, as you'd imagine, is utter sh*t. But some of it is actually pretty good. And hell, if Rory can post multiple Asia videos - of the SAME SONG - I sure as shootin' can get away with this.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you English Top Forty of the '70's.

If it's any consolation, The Gecko sings bullshit hit songs from her youth that never crossed the pond (thank god). Like Dollar, f'r example...

One of many reasons to love the 80s. Fantastical.

This song SHREDS! I particularly like the consta-Krottch shot.

Pamsterdam, you just made my day. That 5000 Volts video is the best thing ever. Especially when the guys start singing...

I wish I could find the footage of them doing that song where the mustache man looks totally hot. It's like he's making love to the camera. When he lip-synchs "mama, I'm doctor kiss kiss" I totally believe him.

Alright, in the interest of fair and impartial reporting...
...I used to put on my Wonder Woman underoos, tie a pair of my mother's pantyhose around my head (I had a Dorothy Hamill pixie hairdo) and pretend to be the lead Solid Gold dancer (the black woman with super-long hair and super-duper-long legs).
