Dennis Chambers playing fusion with some Japanese dudes.
You MUST SEE the sexy look he gives his bandmate, around 2:24. I live for the moments that you have one of these looks across stage.

The clips are too literal, and there are far too many of them.
But the song still moves me intensely. Even if we are no longer between the wars, but living in their times. BTW, Billy Bragg wouldn't win a Billy Bragg soundalike competition. He'd be accused of exaggeration.

It's from 1984, and BB is an ex-squaddie.
But (as is obvious) a socialist with a strong work ethic. Just because I can, but because I also do believe it is good music, one of his more commercial songs. With the late great Kirsty MacColl below. For the record Billy Bragg is straight, but at the time sexuality was a political issue in Britain because of Clause 28 . And for Brits - yes that is Phil Jupitus in the video. In his beat-poet stage.

... except that Billy Bragg has no illusions that he is cool or that he can dance, making the whole video a send-up from the start...?

Sorry - you got me on a 90s trip now.
Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine - just the distinctive opening beats are enough to make people of my age (and political bent) grin like a rabid dog. Again, it's probably aged to the outside world, but the part of me that's eternally 19 thrills to it.

I know this is a lip sync...but it doesn't matter when it comes to Karen Carpenter, the angel voice. Can you believe she died because of her perception of her body? Bless her.
