Now you see it......now you don't...



Spandau Ballet.......



Let those two words sink in for a moment.......

Ok, you've either gone to get a Q-tip to clean the thought out of your brain or you're thinking..."hey, they were a good band". Well, if you're in the second group and love the band, (or in the first group and want something to laugh at) hang on to your double breasted suits, 'cause I've got some fun for you.

But first, a bit of history:

Spandau Ballet were formed in England in the late 70's and is considered to be the biggest band of the New Romantic era.....well, except for that other band called Duran Duran. But we're here to talk about Spandau Ballet.........hmmmmm......well......there's this song and it made them really popular....or really reviled depending on how you feel about the song (I love the song). But while watching the video I couldn't help but notice something that was missing....and then showed up....and then went missing again. Now its all I can see when I watch the video.

And now I'll share the magic with you.......

When you watch the video....and you will....keep your eye on the microphone cord....or occasional lack there of. It will be all you can focus on. And while I realize that not only is there no cord in the guitar or in the electronic drums...all I can focus on is the microphone cord. And now you will too!

Please enjoy True by Spandau Ballet

  1. Before True there was Chant No. 1 and this Top of the Tops performance. Can't get much more New Romantic than this. https://youtu.be/nqL6kyDofZI
