It's not a track I've listened to a lot, but having been through tons of tracks (I try loads with the editing before the final cut), this one worked nicely.

05.08.2025 06:18 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Well that blew up!
I forgot to addโฆโ I hope you enjoy what I madeโ - itโs just a fun retro video, not meant to go down a political rabbit hole etc, but thatโs social media for you! ๐
The best scene!
โCause Iโm a karate man!โ
Tragic, and for many families, very true!

You don't? Oh come on!

Welcome to love, attraction and all that pulse-racing right stuff from the world of 80s adverts.
And yes, it's hetrosexual, I haven't deliberately picked these adverts before someone has a pop, they're just adverts from then, I didn't art direct them!
ok.....it's just a bit of fun.....christ alive.

One minute I'm 24, it's 1999 & I'm jumping around a bar in Nassau to House of Pain at 3am, skinful of booze, tee shirts off, going nuts, sweating out my body weight.
FW: 2025, mug of cocoa, writing my book,& loving Bill Evans....

Lovely! We went to the island of Hydra - absolutely beautiful, no cars, a small town, stunning restaurants, great hikes, worth youtubing, check it out. No airport, just 90 minutes by fast ferry from Athens. We stayed here:

To anyone taking this too seriously...please...it's just a bit of fun.
Honestly, these videos I make are meant to bring light relief, not agro!
Congratulations! Wonderful news! We were in Greece in May, beautiful isn't it? What a place for a proposal!

04.08.2025 19:21 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Thank you very much, I'm really pleased you enjoyed it.

"This generation X, they are doomed, I tell you, all they do is sit behind their silly handheld devices, glued to their screens. I'm telling you, they'll amount to nothing!"
Well, more jazz I suppose, hard to define it.
04.08.2025 18:09 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I'm fascinated, I could pick your brain forever! Absolutely brilliant - I could make a list of questions! I am tempted to make an United video. There might just be a piece of classical music I can use....hmm....I think you know the one!
