Just 20 minutes to go on Wednesday! Please accept this hurried offering of Miko Mission's "Two For Love" video, an Italopop Giallo Ashes To Ashes made for 20p and the cost of a fruit knife (or is it a cheese knife?)
I appreciate the fact that Mr. Mission was older than the main crop of bouffant Italo-boys. He was probably using the power of mime to open interdimensional portals to mysterious rain-washed cities when Den Harrow was in short pants.

Today's #VideoVednesday, "The Liberty Tree" by Frank Tovey and the Pyros, is dedicated to everyone striking in the UK today, or just anyone who's ever wondered what the Fad Gadget mastermind would look like on horseback (assuming that is him)

Just realized I missed this week's #VideoVednesday, so here it is:

"It Pays To Belong" sees Dr. Robert wielding more 80s technology than I've ever seen in one video, and has a social message that's more important than ever (OK, the brief Euroskeptic bit at the end hasn't aged well, but this was happening in the context of Thatcher pushing entry into Europe to promote international capitalism, so it's forgiveable). And despite how I've made it sound, this vid is FUN.

This week's #VideoVednesday is from 2011. Miracle are my favourite modern synthpop band, and "The Visitor" is not only a fantastic tune, but its sombre, dreamy video comes closer than any vid I've ever seen to capturing the vibe of those "Golden Age of the Ghost Story" writers like Sarban and EF Benson in pagan horror mode. A real class act.

This #VideoVednesday's offering, "Crucified" by Army of Lovers, is dedicated to whoever saw fit to play this track at nine a.m. on Dublin's Gem Radio last Monday.
I saw this when I was 12 and it changed my life. To save my many biographers a lot of time in years to come, I wish to state that this was the exact point at which I decided it might be worth taking an interest in men after all.
