OMG, that song about exploiting the children's au pair. Would not fly today. #KimWilde

I was about to tell the 1980s "When there is enough dry ice you can't see the performer, that might be too much dry ice," but if it's supposed to be the mist under the Forth Bridge I suppose it's appropriate lol #KimWilde

The bombing of Cambodia is such a surprising choice of topic for a pop song. The Tolerate of the 80s? #KimWilde

Idk what the hell the Aye Aye Moosey song was, but was the singer really Keir Starmer or was he someone else? #TOTP

Oh, is this the one that was recently butchered and turned into a Dua Lipa track? #TOTP

I assume so. I admit I've tried to find out as little about him as possible...

Regular menace in the 70s episodes. Unfortunately he had more than one hit.

I hereby declare the 90s episodes better by virtue of not having this man in them. #TOTP

And later on I remember them being deeply offended by "Shoot the Dog". I mean who was fucking right in the end? #totp

I underestimated the prevalence of homophobia in the 90s so I didn't realise what a big deal all these queer statements were. Looking back, Outside is stunning on many levels. #TOTP

Oh lmao, the edited version of Outside seems like it might be rather short? Who cares, though! Gay rights! #TOTP

Sadly, I feel this could apply to most decades.

There's an astonishing number of songs called "Money" or some variation thereof, and it never seems to put people off that most of them are crap (Flying Lizards and Johnny Marr excepted). Let's not talk about the Suede one... #TOTP
