Too many cool bands are ending up in an uncool thread.

Dr Hook was class

Weird ... 'uncool' bands Squeeze, Lloyd Cole and Dexys? If you were naming the 'coolest' chart bands of the 80s then these three would feature in most lists. I'm much more extreme in my musical tastes, but even so, I doff my cap to an awful lot of that trio's output.

Morning Mr T, I might have exaggerated a little there, I don't mean uncool, I mean bands who didn't get their full recognition back in the day!!
Brilliant songs all of them.

How about these then for you to analyse..
