Subject: This may seem a stupid question...

Written By: Kheldara on 1/10/2000 at 11:15 a.m.

...in fact, I'm sure it IS a stupid question, but - am I the only person in the world who takes Kajagoogoo at all seriously? I mean, obviously a band with a name like that, songs like *that* and hair like THAT can't be taken that seriously, but I actually love them. And am I the only person in the world who finds any of them attractive? I'm sure the answer's yes, but it's good to have these things confirmed...

Love, Khel. xxxxx

Hey Khel. I've gotta say I always thought Limahl was a cutie. I LOVED his video for "The Neverending Story". Honestly I didn't keep up with them aside from that and "Too Shy" too much, but I don't think it's a stupid question. But they did have a "silly" name, which is likely where the jokes came from. And I agree with Chucky--look at some of the other groups out there. How about the Thompson Twins--not really twins, and three of them to boot. And their hair? Well, take a look at A Flock of Seagulls in some of their videos. I think a lot of the 80's groups become jokes before people even give thought to the music that they created. Just my opinion!! :o)

I agree with Marci on this one. Kajagoogoo was a great band and I was sad when they broke up so that their lead singer Limahl could start his solo career. I thought Limahl was very talented and loved his song "The Neverending Story". But I never really went for the guys with big hair or unusual 'dos. Just liked their sound...
