Amazing selection, 'you made my day' as they say. It seems we share not only love to the 60-es but to 80-es as well --nice, I !LUV that. Sadly there are a lot of artists that are well known to me (like Thom Waits, for example) but in the time I was into them we were deprived of opportunity to watch their recent videos, and when YT was invented... I never specially cared to watch all available for each artist. Besides that, the stuff continue to pop-up from the dusty vaults. Which is amazing thing. So, thank you very much for bringing these gems to my eyes. I can watch Annie performing non-stop on reverse all day long!

If the song doesn't spark an interest in reading the books from George Orwell, then I don't know what would.

Sorry, I hate to disappoint you... I may be the last idiot in the world, but I doubt watching a fancy clip even with such a beautiful women, will lead modern tik-tok generations to take a book and read it, especially such a serious reading as Orwell's '1984'. Let me share one video back; the visuals are influenced as you can guess by Orwell's 'Animal farm'. One of my forever fave tracks by Radiohead: 2+2=5 ... I wish everybody to read said book, but, uh... eh... the chances arent that big.

I think you are right sadly, the desire is not there with the bewilderment people are put through from a very young age. I would say Animal Farm would be the more important read of the 2 aswell. That is a great song by Radiohead and a super video. Thank you for sharing, I haven't seen it for some time.

I am glad you like the selection, Annie was pretty iconic from the 80s, it is amazing how she developed so well. Getting a reminder now and again on tuesdays is pretty good. 🙂
