Hi! I am in NYC, just cruised in from CT. Its snowing like MAD! Well more in CT than here. Here you are just like 'baby steps baby steps... dont fall baby steps'. I am off to Vegas on Sun. that is if the airport in Vegas is open (what the F do you know it is snowing there too. Wait who said Al Gore was full of shit?)
EXTREMELY RARE EARLY 80S NE WAVE GEM!!! This song was so amazing and a smash hit in the college radio and New Wave scene, but as quickly as they arrived...they disappeared. I have been actively searching for a recording of this; of any kind, since about 1986! That was only about a year or two after the track, actually titled "CHRISTIAN BOY", first dropped, outside of its hometown anyway. I was originally introduced to it on the ground-breaking, college radio show, The Rock Avenue which aired on KUNV, brodcasting from the UNLV campus. 22 years I have been looking! Totally fruitless. That is a long time to spend being sent to the Christian music section over and over and over and over, to not find even ONE random music geek who has even heard of it. That being the case, it goes without saying that I am beside myself at having stumbled upon this on youtube. If you have not heard it, which apparently nobody has, then you should without a doubt have a listen, it has got a great feelgood infectious quality. And I mean if you are any kind of fan of the New Wave/80s New Rock genre, its the whole ball of wax. It really is. I am curious to know what happened to them, which is what I am going to try to find out now while you listen to this.....

Malcom McCleren....evil, I know. I have been recently considering the idea that may be evil too. Maybe I should call him.
Anyway point is: Vivian Westwood? Are you kidding? And come on, he DID create the worlds most NOTORIOUS band. Job well done really. Well except for the end. I'm in love with John Lydon. I wanna have his baby. So I cant totally get behind anyone that has fucked HIM over.
Steve Jones had a crazy fresh punk rock radio show in LA. Dont know if he still does. Id liked to think so.
Back to Malcoms good points: Buffalo Gals/Deep in Vogue...? Come on.
Oh and lets not forget...Madame Butterfly. I feel like forgiving him a little bit. Maybe I should call him
