vurumai-Land, he hosted an Eighties Video Fight, and the poor dears fighting didn't even scratch the surface to get to the true horror of the depths of Eighties awfulness.
Such youngsters!
Here was my entry:
Five Star "Let Me Be The One"
Complete with matching jumpsuits, ridiculous hair, and did I mention killer dance moves?
Confession: I was the purple-jumpsuited one in the LipSync show one year.
Truefact!
(I think I still know the moves, aw yeah!)
The 2:18 minute mark has a Syncopated Shoulderpads BREAKDOWN!
OH HELL YES!
CAN YOU BEAT IT?
