Ya hardcore fans only truly appreciate their early work.

I recall an ITV documentary that had an interview with the group after they reformed. Don't know if it it's an age thing but it was then I realised they actually are quite likeable and have some great tunes.

im quite liking 'Dont rock the boat' on itv, craig charles and kimberley wyatt throwing up on board a small boat with the dark destroyer from the chase and a smattering of ex olympians all rowing the length of the UK.

Also, Hotel California and Life is a Minestrone. From a time I avoided double denim and MOWO like the plague.

How Will I Know by Whitney Houston. I heard it on the radio yesterday, good pop tune.

And following the Barry Manilow theme - Daybreak.

My wife’s a big Whitney fan. Had far too many car journeys ruined listening to her greatest hits!

Non-music related.

I can now admit to Baccarat's scintillating version of "Yes sir, I can boogie" which has been on my playlist for years.

Definitely ruined. Can’t stand the big diva prick.

Always forget Jane was a member of the Go-Go's and immediately remember her for riding around on that bloody Dolphin in the Rush Hour vid.

Defo. But only up to about the point where you had two of the originals and the Scouse one. Didn’t they get to a point where they had no original members left. Essentially the MK Dons of the pop scene.

Music - Miley Cyrus and Nelly Furtado

TV series - Sex and the City

First 4 seasons are really funny, like a dirtier, female version of Seinfeld

Was in Liverpool the night the last ever episode of that aired in the UK. One of the lads I was with stayed in the night it was on, claimed he wasn't well and not up for getting smashed. Was only as me and the other lad were heading out an ad came on the TV for it and we realised what his plan was all along.
Wolves game I think, Sami Hyypia injury time header. Great weekend.

Just Googled her,. Heidi Range. Had no idea she was scouse, always thought she was Swedish or something. I loved Amelle Berrabah though, still do.

Not sure if it's that much of a guilty pleasure but I confess to liking Metallica, Drowning Pool, Limp Bizkit and a few others as they always made themes songs for WWF back in the day.

Fuck it, might as well say here and now, they've got some great songs.

You and the other lad called him "Mr. Big" for weeks at a time after...

Nooo!

Where do you go to my lovely is an all time classic;

'You talk like Marlene Dietrich
And you dance like Zizi Jeanmaire
Your clothes are all made by Balmain
And there's diamonds and pearls in your hair, yes, there are'

And so on.

And going back to Charlene Terry Wogan said about the line;

"And I've seen some things
That a woman ain't s'posed to see"

Something on the lines of 'A manin the nip with just his black socks on'

I've got a Zizi Jeanmaire album!. I think my guilty pleasure is the Yacht rock stuff.

Haven't seen that, Seinfeld was the closest that came to mind with NY etc. Miranda is my favorite, even though Samantha has some crackers from time to time. "I'm dating a guy with the funkiest tasting spunk..."

I'll be honest, I just wanted to slag it off; I once saw an episode of Sex and the City and it was dreadful.

Also Seinfeld is one of my favourite shows so to compare the two is heresy

It's true. It was the one where Sarah Jessica Parker was obsessing over shoes and Kim Cattrall was being vulgar. I don't know if that narrows it down.

Who was on the cover of the DVD? That should narrow it down.
