@hilljam @shannoncurtis Finally! Kinda. … Remember back when all this started, you two dressed up as detectives as a clue to a #80sKids track? Our first interaction was me wrongly guessing at the Thomson Twins.

I have great respect for Shannon and Jamie*’s 80s Kids project. These are all truly iconic songs, performed impeccably.
They’re not the 80s songs I grew up with though. Icehouse. INXS. Men at Work. Crowded House†. Divinyls. Daryl Braithwaite. Kate Ceberano. Hunters & Collectors. Cold Chisel.
We need, I dunno, let’s call it 80s Kids in the Kitchen.
This is going to have to be my project, isn’t it?
* I know they have accounts here, I know, I’m just avoiding dragging them into this thread.
† Yes they are an Australian band.

@hilljam Sounding ace as ever, Both!
This is the first #80sKids that totally passed me by at the time. Had to look it up, and it seemingly bombed over here unlike other places.
I think the intro arrangement has quite a Madness feel about, which makes sense, given the era.

I bet you forgot how much you loved this song:
A few years ago, @hilljam and I sat in our living room for about 5 hours one evening, taking turns playing for each other favorite #80s songs that we were thinking about adding to our "one day wouldn't it be fun to record" list.
(That's the list, by the way, that began this entire #80skids project, way before we knew what it could or would become. 💭)

flashback to a couple weeks ago when our new 80s kids single debuted ON THE RADIO 🙀
yes, we are big huge dorks. 🤓
no, we will not be doing anything to change that fact.
thank you for the radio love, 94.9 The Bridge! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
-
Eeeee!!! Here we go!!!! 🚀
It's new album / new show / new single / new fundraiser launch day! Which also means it's excitement / gratitude / joy / nervousness / vulnerability / the whole range of feelings day! 😅
Here's what's happening: This first year of 80s kids has been INCREDIBLE. When @hilljam and I set out on this project, we were aiming at MAXIMUM JOY; but sharing this music with all of you in 2025 surpassed every one of our hopes for this mission.

When it came to quoting movie lines there were two movies that were incredibly popular in Germany when I was young: Spaceballs and Life of Brian.
"Please just one cross each" (or whatever the original English line was) still cracks me up today.

Last night in rehearsal for our upcoming #80skids shows, I chipped a tooth on my microphone ... while delivering a line about being "committed to the bit" ... in case you're wondering how committed I am. 🤣

We kicked off #RFFF25 with the awesome @shannoncurtis and @hilljam performing their #80sKids live show.
If you were there, you felt the emotion and the power even through the interwebs. If not, do check out the project.
It has a new suitably pretty in pink site. If you check out the tour trailer video, maybe you could comment out on that to help this joyous project keep growing as they add more physical shows! and more tracks?!

Any chance for a future tour of Europe @shannoncurtis and @hilljam?
I want my 80s Kids live! Love ya 😘
