What?

How did Toyah not even get nominated?

It's a disgrace, I tell you!

BTW has anybody ever seen Rick Astley and Howdy Doody in the same room at the same time?

<br>Lots of quality stuff like that at the ZZZZone Minty. You should think about joining that site...they're starving for quality input. I've been forever banned, but you might find some fellow AFTC fans there.

Good news eight6 ! I was talking to Andy just the other day and your name came up. In the conversation I asked Andy if you're still welcomed at the Zone and he said yes .
He also asked me to invite Minty to the New Wave Zone.
Hope to see you gentlemen there real soon.

I must have missed something...you made mention of some good news.

I think Minty would get along along famously with Andy...like 2 peas in a pod.

For me, not likely...LOL!

Obama's lack of dancing ability can be attributed to being half white.[:)]

Do tell. Is the other one there?

We didn't sell a lot of records, but somehow we left an impression.

After googling "New Wave Zone"... erm, think I'll stay here thanks. [xx(]

Besides, minus the AFTC/Celine Dion/M+TM haters, this board is awesome! [:D][8D]

Uhh...this is some kind of sick joke, right? This guy's career died almost as soon as it started -- and that, over 20 years ago. Give me a bleepin' break.

Completely unlistenable... and the best thing he's done in decades.

Here's a live 2008 clip where he admits to being retired "for 20 years":

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ilX8u8Ey2Kc&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ilX8u8Ey2Kc&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Maybe next year they can nominate Paul McCartney as Best New Artist.

I'll pick Astley's 80's SAW pop over any crappy pop stars of today, like Justin Timberlake or Timbaland or whatever it is that young kids listen to today.

a few years ago he had a very good song called "Sleeping" but it got no promo here in US, too bad, it was a nice pop song... I'd say his voice was pretty good too...

that's what I think, without any hate or sarcasm
