Oh fvck! I swear I started singing it as soon as I read the words! "Shot through the heart, and your to blame, darlin you give loooove a bad name...."
Maybe this is just for us weirdo Canadian 80's kids but what about:
- Having a pear of Treetorns with EVERY colour "swoosh" (especially the plaid ones)
- The Mini Pops - "Eye of the Tiger" was the best, especially for the roller rinks!
- Pinning you Pants
If your from TO, you know whad I'm talking about.
