Mercedes Magic Body Control - Holy Moly!
Oh those annoying constant adverts on YouTube for Cadillac, "the Germans no longer have a corner on the corner". No they don't they've moved onto bumps...
"We Are Brothers" By Baddy Paris and Rufus Starlight.
Two brothers were asked by their middle brother to be the best men at his wedding, and they made this video instead... Amazing...

And I'm gonna suck ya!
Marc Bolan and T.Rex were one of the best bands of the 70s, if you have never heard them or seen them then enjoy them playing Jeepster on a 1970s German pop show "MusicLaden"...
Marc recorded two guitar tracks for this song (at least) and so to reproduce the sound MusicLaden did two recordings of the performance and overlayed them, thus towards the end of the song you can see one of the Marc's stop playing! ACE!

Am I wierd to find these fascinating?
You can totally get why they came up with things like The Ring (see the japanese version not the hollywood version) or the Survival Horror games (Resident Evil, Silent Hill etc) or the fabulous Studio Ghiblimovies like Spirited Away.
Of course America has its own Christian version thanks to James Bakker. Not as much fun but still a bit creepy!

Slade - Live Reading 1980
From AllMusic.COM
Slade's appearance at the Reading Festival in 1980 will go down in the annals of rock history as one of the great comeback stories.
At the time of the gig, Slade had packed it in. No bad vibes, creative differences, or any other of the usual breakup reasons. No, these guys were just tired of the abuse. At their absolute low of popularity and relevance (their records were worth so little they had been melted down for raw vinyl and the band was playing humiliating Spinal Tap-like Airforce base gigs), they had just decided to call it a day.Then the call came in. They were invited to fill in at the last minute at the Reading Festival. Even with the fear of 100,000 beer cans flying at them, everyone finally agreed to do it. The band was really nervous backstage before the show, but as it became time to play, Jim Lea said, "I've written more hits than everyone back here put together!" Slade then went out and kicked everyone's ass so hard they completely stole the show.
All the British press (who had been ignoring Slade for some years by this point) wrote about Reading that year was Slade, and how they were back, dynamic, one of the greatest live bands ever. Joe Elliott from Def Leppard was quoted as saying that following Slade that day was a no-win proposition.
The energy the band has is matched by the enthusiasm of the audience, many of whom were no doubt ready to give Slade the beer can welcome they feared.
The Reading Festival in 1980 gave Slade new life.
