That wasn't a bad song all things considered.... pity Dexy's midnight Runners never really saw any further success...

I think she only made one album and this is the only song of hers I know but I have liked this since I was a young un.


More cheesy faves that get an airing after a few beers:




and this is probably my all time fave within the genre. I still think it's a great track:

I don't think it's cheesy because I like it, but I can see where it might be for some people.

What part? I thought the song was pretty solid musically, I'm a Steve Howe fan and it's one of his finer moments for me.

I like The Cars, but this is just cheesy:



I know this is late 1979 but I can't believe no one's posted it yet. I guess it still counts because it's so cheesy:
