Karen "crow's eyes face" Woodward is the only one who still looks good despite all the Andrew Ridgeley facials she must have endured.

Beavis: Is this Wilson Phillips?

Butt-head: Yeah. This is back when they were cool.

[Singing along with group]
Beavis: I'm your Beavis!

Butt-head: I'm your Venus…um, hey Beavis, what rhymes with "Venus"?

Beavis: Um…um…venus…Venus Flytrap.

Butt-head: These chicks should marry GWAR.

Beavis: Yeah, yeah! That would be cool!

Butt-head: They would have offspring that would be the coolest people ever lived.

Beavis: Yeah! And they would rule Antarctica.

Butt-head: They would rule the entire world.

[A singer is dressed in a leather devil costume]
Butt-head: Whoa! Satan's got back!

It might go better than the Spice Girls unholy reunion...

[FORD]

Well, Bananarama at least wrote their own songs, and could sing them without auto-tuning. Except Venus... they didn't write that one.... some Dutch hippies did.

Stock Aitken Waterman. Ugh.

[FORD]

Yeah, the production was standard mid-80s plastic cookie cutter crap, for sure. Responsible for a lot of even worse shit like Rick Astley as well.

[Terry]

Stock Aitken Waterman. Ugh.

I had forgotten about that 80s production trio...I think understandably forgotten considering the output.

I can't say as to what their impact in the US was in the late 1980s because I wasn't here. Living in the UK for those years, though, their output was ubiquitous to the point of overload in terms of the pop charts. Every other single was something by Bananarama, Rick Astley, Kylie Minogue...shit, even that talentless cunt Jason Donovan (also, like Kylie, from the Neighbours show) managed to have a hit tune...all of it Stock, Aitken and Waterman produced.

[Kristy]

Oh, bull-the-fucking-shit.

Their early production were done by the limey bubblegum producing duo of (Steve) Jolley & (Tony) Swain who also co-wrote most of songs - as well as being responsible for Kim Wilde's career.

They were the limey versh of Bacharach & David (who wrote all those great tunes for limey Dusty Springfield) only nowhere near as talented because, you now, they are filthy limeys.
