Yesterday's journal was the chorus from the song 'old emotions' by the Spoons. I always thought that they were a big famous international band along the line of Bryan Adams or the Thomson Twins, but I guess they were just a local phenomenon (maybe not even that. the two people who answered could not place the song and were both from southern Ontario). I think it came out in, like 1982, before there was even a cable muchmusic (Canadian MTV).
.
On the other hand, my second day of undergrad, 1993 at the University of Toronto. My new next door neighbour and I walked into the Bloor & Yonge subway station (where the video for their biggest hit was filmed. I'm sure that it was ubiquitous at one time. I was like seven years old and I remember it). I started humming 'do do do do do do do do, do do do do do-do-do-do, rooooomantic traffic'. And my neighbour remembered it perfectly.

Other spoons 'hits' included arias & symphonies, nova heart, tell no lies, and (of course) Romantic Traffic.

Next week, we shall discuss Images in Vogue and Men Without Hats.

If the stats and hometown fields were reversed on the profile board, I would fill in STATS: White Man.... HOMETOWN:...in Hammersmith Palais.
