| Hi, I’m Limahl and welcome to my Ten Of The Best on VH1. I’d
like to start with a song that was basically done by my first heroine.
I used to listen to her constantly, dream away in my hotel bedroom when
I was working in Plymouth- the fantastic Kate Bush and
the beautiful song "Army Dreamers". |
| (Video) |
| Hi, my next choice on my Ten Of The Best is a song that I played all
the time when I first moved to London when I was nineteen and dreaming
of kind of being somebody making it in the music business. I had a personal
stereo and I used to get lost in this song –"Bedsitter"
by Soft Cell. |
| (Video) |
| This next video is the kind of video that everybody remembers ‘cause
it’s the kind of video that when you first saw it, it was so…,
the images were so strong, I think it was the first time that they’d
used this kind of cartoon image. So enjoy "Take On Me"
–Aha. |
| (Video) |
| This next video on Ten Of The Best was also on the big pop program
in the UK "The Top of the Pops" when I , uh when Kajagoogoo first appeared
and uh I remember watching the program back and this was the song that
came on after us. I love this song –Joe Jackson "Steppin’
Out". |
| (Video) |
| Hi I’m Limahl and my next video selection is by an artist who
shared the same manager as me for a while. We met once in a hotel lobby
in Germany and I think he was annoyed ‘cause my hair was sticking
up more than his. It’s Rod Stewart and "Young
Turks". |
| (Video) |
| My next choice is a song uh, which features an unknown singer called
Limahl. Look really close I’m an extra in this video. Adam
and the Ants –"Stand and Deliver". |
| (Video) |
|
| You’re still watching Ten Of The Best with me Limahl and my next
choice is by an artist who has had an amazing career. This is , this
video was so powerful when I saw it. I tried to choose videos that really
kinda hit me. And this is Madonna and "Rain". |
| (Video) |
| This is Ten Of The Best. I’m Limahl and my next choice –I
wasn’t an extra in this video although I would have given anything
to look this gorgeous. Check out the girls and the fantastic "Fastlove"
by George Michael. |
| (Video) |
| Hi I’m Limahl. You’re watching Ten Of The Best My next choice
again is one of those videos that was the first of its kind. Everybody
remembers the strong images of these fantastic women and a great song
too. Robert Palmer -"Addicted to Love".

| Hi, I’m Limahl. Thanks for watching my ten of the best on VH1.
I’m going to leave you with a song that blew me away when the video
appeared on television. In those days, videos were sort of in their
early stages and uh, I think this was a very ground breaking video.
I love the song , escape and enjoy Visage and "Fade
To Grey". |
| Bye. |
