After all the rock n roll lately, i thought i should, well try to get some booty on the floor. So this week, three of the big dance anthems from the late 80s/early 90s, when my own distinctive dance style was just coming into its own. These tracks all share an added characteristic: the egregious use of day-glo backgrounds in their videos. Same director?
Technotronic: Pump Up the Jam
What’s in that pouch, I wonder?
Neneh Cherry: Buffalo Stance
Dee Lite: Groove Is In The Heart
What kind of filter do they run these through, that washes out all the cool sexiness? Where have the original, unaltered, videos gone, and why are they not on YouTube?
I bet even Spandau Ballet videos look awful, after being put through the filter. And it seems to effect lyrics too…
yeah i think they just degrade with age.
