Re: What's "The Best Ten"? From 1978

I'm pretty sure it's this show I see performances of her often: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7rSLEImIYE The hosts are kinda interchangeable, but I think the girl was on for a long time. They had that same set design for years, because I saw a show from the early 80s and it was still like that. @....

Re: Ami Suzuki - KISS KISS KISS

Ooh, I say yesss to this too. I'm such a big fan of Amigo's TK works, but once she got all eurobeat/vocoder I couldn't get into any of her songs. This actually uses her real voice. I could do without the "kissing you that's all good" or whatever part, but overall sooo good. And the covers ...
