Guest Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 Does anyone remember a song called 'Welcome to the Monkey-House' by Animal Magnet? A massive hit in the clubs in 1982. I have always had a theory it may only be known by people in the West Midlands or maybe Manchester? Can anybody prove me wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 Sorry Martin, it is for thirtysomethings only. You are not too far away from us, why don't you ask your parents, they may have heard of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 I was too old in 1986 to have known this Dan. I like it - but then, I like Crazy Frog as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 I'm a 40-something now - but remember it well - I lived in Manchester in the 80s - but it was always a hit at Warwick University discos too - Coventry is close to Brum, so maybe doesn't count! never liked it muself - but then I was never into synth-pop..

Chicken on a mission Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 I clicked on the link given by dtrc1969 and now know why it wasn't a hit. Sorry guys, not my cup of tea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken on a mission Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 You can't go wrong with Motown. I often think that I was born too late. I love The Stones, Mama's and Papa's, any glam rock, disco, new romantics... But my real era for musics was Stock, Aitkin & Waterman. It's no wonder I'm an emotional cripple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel (& Paul) Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I think the animal magnets song must have been a Northen song - dont remember it from my clubbing days (and NO before you say anything it wasnt THAT long ago ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
