    The campest record of all time

    I'd love to hear your opinions, personally I think it's got to be kelly Marie with " feels like I'm in love".

    Now THAT sounds as camp as Christmas, I've sadly never had the pleasure though.

    It's pretty awesome/hilarious. I have the 12" for it somewhere but it was also on her disco album which is on sale on ebay I see if you're curious:

    He's a popular actor, probably his biggest role was the lead in Oliver Stone's "Alexander" last year. Starring in the upcoming "Miami Vice" movie as well for what it's worth.

    There's a list of his roles and a photo in his Internet Movie Database listing if you are curious to know more about him: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0268199

    Yes, there are so many camp classics. If I had to pick one (spontaneously and without thinking about which track this could be), I'd choose Male Stripper or I Need A Man by Man2Man or So Many Men... by Miquel Brown.

    EARLENE BENTLEY gave us some superb camp classics along with EARTHA KITT. Another top class camp track is DON`T TALK TO STRANGERS by SILK & STEELE

    These are good tracks, too. As for the Weather Girls and "It's raining men," I must say that this song was very popular after it was released in the eighties and the floors were packed when this song was played -- but I never bought a copy of that track. Carol Jiani's version of "It's raining men" is better IMO and I like it very much -- there's more juice in it than in the original track. As always it's a matter of personal taste.

    Paul Jabaras' Ocho Rios certainly has to come close.
