    I loved that music video and I remember a boy I had a crush on gave me a tape of their first album.

    Did anyone else used to tape songs off the radio when the top 20 was on?:rotfl:

    Yep, of course :D

    I remember leaving the tape on to go and have my tea, and hearing some good new tunes.

    I'm still listening to some of them.

    :rotfl: I used to also play my records and tape them with my tape recorder and used to shout at my Mam if she made a sound as it would be heard on the song:o

    My kids think its so funny when I tell them I used to have a personal stereo that took tapes......I thought I was cool as FCUK:cool:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
