are more into the great R&B groups of the 70s, but as much as I love those groups the 80s was my teenage years and some of the songs from that era bring back great memories.

Who wanna laff can laff. I loved the song "Crushed" .... its the first I know who sang it.

[Islandman]

Me never know who sing it either! Until youtube came around i thought I had lost track of that song forever. Is nuff long lost songs and videos that youtube bring back to me.

[Jangle]
