Gino Vanelli

All I thought about was SCTV, seeing your post. Oh the days of SCTV.

I looked for the video everywhere but no luck. Eugene Levy played Gino and every time he turned around he would have more body hair.

Thanks for this thread. My Spotify is happy. I can't believe I didn't have Squeeze on any playlist.

Went over my songs and the only artists that didn't have crazy success were Dream Warriors (Wash Your Face In My Sink), Maestro Fresh Wes (too early for his time potentially) Yaz/Alison Moyet, Bryan Ferry, The Smiths.

Oh and this thread helped me find an obscure band I used to play in university, Crash Vegas. God how I love music.

Criminal that Elvis Costello was never massive. What a gem. I remember living in Japan and seeing that he was coming to a very small venue in my city. I couldn't get off work and regret never seeing him live. YET!

Whoever mentioned Sixpence None The Richer. I play Kiss Me on repeat sometimes when I am on my bike. Such a happy song. On a bike it's even happier.

I saw Elvis Costello play at a high school theater. A few rows were available the day before.
