How to  choose the best Bananarama song?  And no, I'm not being sarcastic - it's going to be a glorious singalong!

It is difficult they have done loads of great pop songs. 

[incident]

Love In The First Degree reminds me, perhaps more than any song ever, of just about every school disco I ever went to as a kid. So yeah, that.

No votes so far for Robert De Niros Waiting, count it as one from me.

Are we talking Italian.?

Yes one of my discoveries from the poster. Never heard of her before. Any idea where she's likely to be and how big a crowd she's likely to have. 

[StupidDream]

I'm a bit too young for Bananarama (although at first I thought: yes of course I know them), and I tried a couple of songs... But no, not for me, at least not whilst sat at a desk. 

Of course, Venus is a banger, but it should be the Shocking Blue version for me

She's already confirmed for the Park stage.

Quite a bit of a buzz around her so should have a decent crowd but not huge.

I never have any idea how popular acts I've taken a liking to are and am frequently surprised at how big or how small a crowd they have. Hard to tell until the line up is announced but would definitely like to catch her set.

Is it not the 3 of them still then?

Fun fact, when I was in school I always heard the lyric "I'm guilty as a girl can be" as "I'm guilty as a drunken bee". Onwards :
Frank Turner

Haven't mentioned the band name as I believe he's got a new band and will probably perform songs from various eras. I have no clue though.

Recovery

[gigpusher]

Long Live The Queen and if I go and see him and he plays it I will have an emotional moment. I always think of those that I have to dance for anyway. 

[Livvy13]

Really fallen in love with The Way I Tend To Be recently although my all time favourite is definitely Get Better

[Yokel Again]

I knew prufrock before he was famous. 

Lots to choose from. 

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

The Next Storm.

It's a bit of an obvious one from an extensive back catalogue but it's such a feel good song, perfect for Glastonbury

That's a great shout & would probably be my 2nd choice.

I'm going to go for Photosynthesis. Discovered Frank Turner just before I turned 30 and it was perfect song for how I was feeling at the time.

Coming up on 40, still love the song and still determined to not grow up

Think it's quite telling of the depth of FT's back catalogue that everyone has picked different songs so far.

Photosynthesis is soooo goooood! But there are a few others I love as well. Ahh gotta go with the old plant feeding chemical reaction

[priest17]

I'm gonna go Photosynthesis as well. He can be a bit cringe for me at points but this song still puts a massive grin on my face. Could easily be 5 other dongs though.

 

[GMF]

Not his but his version of Thunder Road is brilliant.
