The Cheese Interlude...

Linda Ronstadt & Aaron Neville - "Don't Know Much"...

This scared me when I saw it on VH1 Classic last night (don't worry, Julie... I'm not running out of videos yet) - I would have been 16 when this was in the charts, and looking at it now, they look so OLD... I don't remember thinking how old Aaron looked in 1989! I mean, this was around the same time as fresh-faced Kylie & Jason did "Especially For You"... which was as sickeningly sweet and twee a song, but at least it didn't look like your middle-aged auntie and uncle singing it! Imagine if Aaron & Linda decided to re-release that now... it would be dangerously close to OAP-sex... Ewww...

I'm never going to be able to listen to this song again without needing mind-bleach...
