With all the hype surrounding the new Live 8 concerts around the world. TV companies have been going on nostalgia trips. The BBC aired a programme about the Live Aid concerts of 1985 the other night and I was mesmerised by one particular part of that concert.
During the David Bowie set they showed a video on the big screen. It was of the poor starving souls in Ethiopia. It showed mothers and children crying. It was a really severe video. The music that accompanied it was "Drive" by The Cars. That song has taken on a whole new meaning to me. Its impact on me now 20 years later is as great as it ws then when so many people saw it for the first time.
When the song ends the cameras go back to Wembley stadium where everybody is in tears. I am not ashamed to admit that I was too. |

I can remember back to '89-'90 when Communism was breaking down all over Eastern Europe. I was watching a news program that was devoted to this and they were showing clips of the Wall coming down, people celebrating, the Soviets leaving countries... and the music that provided the backdrop to this was Bowie's "Changes". I thought at the time that this song was very appropriate and the images (as well as the song) have remained with me since. |

One time i was doing my wife, and "Some Girls" came on "RAGE", a Aussie all-night clip show.
Mind you, it was by "Racy", not the Stones.
My Yankee mates probably dont know what i am talking about, but i am certain my U.K./Euro buddies do!
I nearly lost my mammoth erection. |

I remember the first time I heard Dont Stop. I was shagging my bird at the time whilst listening to my newly aquired forty licks. Now I was never really a big stones fan untill that point. Me and my bird loved the song so much that we would shag to it all the time.
That is the real reason I stick up for the song on this board. Its mediocre listening to a song for the first time on the radio. You need to hear it whilst making love. Orgasmic! |

Great story, interesting to see that someone became fan after Don't Stop. |
