came across this Freestyle video for Nattens Dockor from 1980 on youtube, love this tune, English version was called Something Special. This must be a rare video! I wish vocals were better though

What a nice discovery! I took a fancy to both of them instantly. Especially the first one sounds like Sandra to me. She was and is very popular in Japan, and the Euro Dance, what we call ''Eurobeat,'' with catchy synth riffs, including Swedish ones, were so often played at disco here back in the mid to late 80s, as I clearly remember. Thanks for the posting.

I think the CDs and records including the two tunes are worth looking for, but seem rare and hard-to-find.

Candy love - Lilli and Sussie...

all these years later and it still gives me goosebumps.. plus lots of great memories of the POWERHOUSE in Brum.. Funky Duncan on the decks.. (usually at least 3 + a cd version of the SL1200) The Sadistic Sisters on the lights...

oh.. and Andy Farley in stripey socks and Cullottes.

Do you remember Lasse Holm's Cannelloni Macaroni from 1986 ? Jesus, what a fine and melodious track that was !

"Pescatore Vesuvio
La Busola Bombay
A-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a
Vad ni frestar mig
Siciliana al tonne
Vegetariano
A-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a
Jag far aldrig nog"
