@Burnley123 That is freakin' hysterical.

@SW-User I remember it at the time. Even by Eurovision standards it was ridiculous but its so fucking funny. I posted a question on this cos its gold. 🤣

Dan193 · 31-35, M

@Burnley123 Yeah, me too. I actually liked the song. I remember watching that.

I can only come up with ABBA. 😥

@SW-User lol. I'd love to be cultured enough to actually like that shit but I just enjoy so called indie which is actually just semi ironic pop. 😎

@Burnley123 The UK at least had the good sense to borrow from American blues/rock music.

Burnley123 · 41-45, M

@SW-User Yep because our kids would buy records by black guys and your kids wouldn't. From the 60s on you borrowed it back. 😉

Ok this isn't a band but rather a solo artist, he is from Italy and singing in Spanish. He is very popular in Italy.

Edit: the link didn't post. The last time that happened it was because it wasn't available in the country that this site originates from.

Here's the info..........Tiziano Ferro - El Amor es una Cosa Simple

Hope I'm not too late, anything that inspired Planet Rock is awesom.

Kraftwerk, so ahead of anyone

Does this count?

@GeniUs yep

Quizzical · 46-50, M

Hmmmm, finding a non-English speaking country might be a challenge in itself... English seems to be at least the second language everywhere, lol

Dan193 · 31-35, M

@Quizzical He probably means English to not be one of the official state languages.

Quizzical · 46-50, M

@Dan193 That would make more sense, lol

Burnley123 · 41-45, M

@Quizzical it's what I mean.
