All You Zombies

This post, unfortunately, has nothing to do with zombies.  I wish it did.

No, for some reason Gia and I were remembering The Hooters the other day.  Not her hooters, which are magnificent I must say.  I'm talkin' about the band.  You know...from the 80's.  And she brought up the song "All You Zombies", and we both agreed that it was a pretty good tune.

Then I found the video on Youtube, and...well...just watch.


Did we really dress like that in the mid-80's? What the hell were we thinking? A bunch of...ZOMBIES, if you ask me.

But the video did make me laugh. It reminded me of that .gif file that someone put together of Paul Rudd dancing in an outfit similar to those.  This one:

"Yeah, they were the ISRAELITES!!!"

The Hooters had a great poppy tune called "And We Danced".
Whenever I see stuff from the '80's, it makes me really glad that I was just too damn clueless to follow fashion.

Paticus - Yeah, if you didn't notice my tag for this post, it's "And we danced". And we did.

I saw them live when they opened for Howard Jones.

Does that make me cooler, or less cool?

Slyde - What do you think, Fabio?

Hahaha - I'm with Heff!
The monochromatic look -very slimming and lengthening! That's pretty much all I can say about those clothes.

Heff - Pure torture...

Sybil - All you can say positive about those clothes.
