Great songs by 'uncool' acts

[BimboBob]

Jona Lewie - Stop the cavalry
Jon and Vangelis - I'll find my way home
Squeeze - Up the junction
Buggles - Video killed the radio star
Lloyd Cole & the Commotions - Brand new friend
Visage - Fade to grey
Dexys Midnight Runners - Geno
A-Ha - Take me on
The Vapours - Turning Japanese
Kraftwerk - The Model

Kraftwerk, Dexys, Squeeze...all uncool? Visage? Epitome of early 80's cool.

Fair enough BB, I may have mixed up uncool with "not receiving the recognition they deserved at the time'
Pretty much all the songs I have posted on this thread get a good airing in the car..

Time to get up and watch the rugby..

Recognition for what? Kraftwerk have always been recognised as pioneers, trail blazers etc etc in what they do.

Are you an old man like the rest of us? If you are you should know this. Or are you a young buck, listening to 80's music in the car? If you are, well done.
