I've got this old box at home filled with cassette tapes from back when I was just a teenager living in the city. I keep them tucked away in the closet, but every now and then I'll pull one out and listen with a bit of nostalgia. Listening to some of those singers and bands that were huge back then—but feel totally forgotten now—makes me wonder what ever happened to them.
For instance, some of my favorites from that era were Cyndi and her Material Girl vibe, Alphaville had such catchy songs (even if their frontman had a pretty wild accent), Talk Talk had great tracks, and Kim Wilde was just so sexy with such good music. And those two, the blond and the brunette duo, Modern Talking... I wonder where they ended up?
Rick Astley was so cute back then—I guess he's probably a grandpa by now...
I also can't quite remember the name of that young British singer whose song was everywhere, even though she sounded way older than her 14 years. If anyone knows who she is, let me know!
Anyway, what about you guys? Who were you listening to? If you stumble upon a site showing what our old idols look like today, please share it! It would be awesome.
