VARIOUS (LIBERATION)
If the title One Hit Wonders doesn’t get your gay gene stirring, then perhaps the suggestion that this collection is a spin-off from His Royal Campness Molly Meldrum’s Countdown will.
Spread across the two CDs is a hilarious selection of historical pop
nasties from fashion disasters like MC Hammer, Kajagoogoo, Marilyn
(sadly not ‘Calling Your Name’),
Plastic Bertrand, Aussie style-meister James Freud, and Madonna’s
ex-shag, Vanilla Ice. Plus there’s your school formal favourites ‘Tainted Love’, ‘Footloose’, ‘Funkytown’, ‘Axel F’, ‘Never-ending Story’, and of course, ’99 Luftballoons’.
Visual desperados will drool over the bonus DVD also included in this
essential set of light-hearted stupidity. If only we were allowed to
breed, it would a great family heirloom.
