*sigh* next you'll be telling me that this isn't the best Eurovision song ever ...
...
And I can't find it.
I just spent nearly an hour trying to find a silly Eurovision song from the mid-to-late 80s (maybe it was very early 90s?)
I thought it was an eastern european song. Two guys singing. It was a complete potshot joke of a song. Think the refrain was something like "hurly gurly burly" or some sequence of silly sounding "words". It may have actually had a very deep meaning in their language.
Anyways, the moment passed. I can't make a joking remark due to bad memory leaks.
I got caught by a record shop with 3 Cabaret Voltaire singles, he bought them out from under the counter and said he hadn't processed them yet, I said yes and he then asked for nearly £60 for them !
What I did learn is that they ALWAYS have a handful of singles under the counter and will ALWAYS try it on with you, I always accept a look through, but do it in a very disinterested way and say that there is nothing I need in there.

yeah Warp records used to do the same, theyd play the really expensive new 12"s and imports etc so youd ask whos this, and theyd pull it out and itd be like £10/£12 or something.

Huh? Thats not the words to Strawberry Fields. 'It is very easy' is as close as my schoolboy French gets me.

Here is a different song by the same singer. Maybe this one is more well known:
I bet you like Modern Talking don't you Clowder :p
...and also they were the masters of pretending they were in their 20's whilst pushing hard against 40 :))

Granted it's shite, but It's not the worst...
