Musical Saturday Morning

I know this is a repeat from long ago.
I was remembering a person whom made me laugh back in 1980's.
It was only incidental, as I was learning about singing.
And there is this guy, Morten Harket.
A singer from Norway and he is gifted with a voice that can hit ALL notes!
Fascinating to listen to ...
Eh, maybe more freakish.

Now Morten rose to fame as part of Aha with their huge video hit, "Take On Me".
A story video of a girl whom is attracted to a comic character and then becomes a part of the story.
It ends happy.

Now his girlfriend at the time was "Bunty Bailey" aka Therese Bailey.
She was a hoot and we remained internet friends with me for many years.
And because I had known her, I would spot her in random other videos in the 1980's.

So, I was actually remembering her!
Probably will not tomorrow, sigh .....
And her appearance in this video - briefly, left a bad taste in my mouth.
Oh well, I liked the song, not the video.
I knew she was better than this.
I understood what Billy Idol was saying,
Having been there myself many decades ago .....

I still pray ever so often that "Billy Idol" will get his head together.
(off drugs, meet God, etc.)
