Which 'Anthem' has had close to 4 Million! plays on Youtube in less than a year! 17 Years, 6 Months ago  
The singer of the track in question (which only reached #42 on the Offcial UK chart when it was released over 20 years ago!) can often be seen dining in and around the King's Road Chelsea.

Re:OK Quizman; I'll play 17 Years, 6 Months ago  
I`m guessing here, and it`s a good question as it is not Googleable. I am going for a theme written by Elvis Costello, for a tv show of which I can`t recall the name(s), it was on C4 and the star was the guy who played Wolfie in Citizen Smith.

Bryan Adams 17 Years, 6 Months ago  
My all time favourite track!
I've met Bryan on a number of occasions, and agree with you that he's one of the nicest guys in 'the business'.
A genuine down to earth guy, who's doing what he loves to do.
Never happier than on a stage to thousands of long time fans.
Just announced a UK Arena tour for next May.

Re:Bryan Adams 17 Years, 6 Months ago  
I went to see him after the great storms of "87, we had had no electricity for over two weeks, and I was given a ticket at the eleventh hour by somebody who assumed the gig was off for that reason. It was amazing to see and hear a show with all that power, and then go back home, and light all the candles again.
I love that album, Reckless, but never got into anything else he did. T`Pau were the support, and were number one shortly after.

Re:Bryan Adams 17 Years, 6 Months ago  
and if I remember correct both T'pau and Bryan owed a lot to a certain TV series of the time, No Limits - with 5.9 million BBC2 viewers at peak yet never mentioned in discussions about such teen TV shows as The Tube (700,000) and The Word (400,000).

Summer Of '69 Remix 17 Years, 6 Months ago  
I can't help but think that this 'remix' of 'Summer of '69' would be huge in the clubs.
Apparently it's DJ Rankin V DJ Otzi.
Having not heard the DJ Otzi version, I'm not quite sure what DJ Rankin has done to the track

Let's call it a 'remixed remix'

DJ Rankin V DJ Otzi 'Summer Of '69'

Loved No Limits... 17 Years, 6 Months ago  
I was watching an episode once and was really into it, and that suddenly out of the blue, my mates current tune was played, when they were flying kites or something. I rang the studio the next morning, using the number on my "No Limits" credit card, and I was on the phone to a nice lady for absolutely ages, much to my surprise. Great days, it was a time when you felt a big buzz about.
Back to T`Pau, who were from the very exciting Siren stable, the buzz of new music in that office was incredible. They had incredible faith in their acts on the USA marketplace, and nobody hanging around there, including myself, expected the ermm , what we considered elderly(can you believe that?)Cutting Crew and T`Pau to be the big acts on the label, everybody thought that Breathe would be the big one.
