Gee Roy do you have a boom box in the sidecar? I can imagine a 74 yo riding a BSA with sidecar with that belting out. LOL.
Next in line on YouTube was this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8rtiRNwfvg  now you need to get her in your chair.

Memories... I saw that movie when it 1st came out in the cinema, that sequence is very special. Great suspense (& terror) movie btw.

That has been blocked in the UK.
I like the Mickey & Sylvia - Love Is Strange bit.
I just love stuff that gets me jumping around in my chair. That's about as much as I can manage these days.

I seemed to have missed 1980's music when it was happening, but I hear some of it now with admiration. This new version of New Order's Blue Monday is eccentric. I love it!
