Smash Hits
« on: August 06, 2018, 04:59:41 PM »
I bloody loved it. I used to cut out the lyrics for songs that I liked and stuck them in a big leather notebook that someone had brought me back from a holiday in Spain. And I think it must have shaped my sense of humour, because it is pretty much still the same. Only the other night I was telling someone that my first snog was with Ian with the magnificent flicky hair.

I'm was too old to appreciate Star Wars and too old to get Smash Hits. God, I look back and I was so old when I was young

They used to call Big Country's Mark Brzezicki 'Mark Unpronouncablename'. I've just looked and it features on his Wiki page.  :D

My older son got SH when he was in his teens. I used to read it as well - it was very funny.

Tony "Foghorn" Hadley.  :D

Sad, really, though, to think of how all the personality has gone from popular music. I'm glad to see the insinuation made between "Madchester" and "boring". Wasn't it just.
