Carol was a crush of mine when younger - and se was ginger when it wasnt a crime. she even said she had a matching set once on a programme - and that is why they were never heard of again.
@americanistaplus - Because some people seem to think America is the only place that matters for bands. There are thousands of multi platinum artists around the world who's songs you may never here on the radio here or be able to buy or even download (legally) in the US.
I am not ashamed of myself due to things could be alot worse and way more serious for her than that. It was a harmless remark that I found humor in. I am sure she still made good money from her short lived sucess. You need a sense a humor.With the eye thing or not, she still has a great voice.
It's not that they didn't notice. It's just that it's the nature of the beast. Everyone there just accepted the reality of it. I wish I could hear a real live version, but I understand the TOTP management wanting their acts to sound (exactly) like the hit singles.
No, it was and still is a show across the pond where they take the bands of the minute and show them 'performing' their current hit. Unfortunately, as I stated before, it is only about 30 percent live - rest is all backing tracks and prerecorded stuff :(
sadly, you're right. BBC cancelled it last year, it hadn't been doing all that well for a long time thanks to MTV, but I think the whole Ashlee Simpson lip-synching really sealed the coffin.
You guys ought to be ashamed of yourselves - people can't help what they're born with - did you ever stop to think what it must be like for her to deal with?
HATE top of the pops - every single band I've ever seen on it use either/both backing tracks or lipsynch the whole thing - so sad. Wish they would have actually let the artists perform.
How are they are one hit wonder ? "China in your hands" was #1 for about 100 weeks back in 1987. There were three proper albums all producing singles that charted well in the top40.
