OK...Thought I would start a thread to pay tribute to DIVINE...
This HINRG superstar had a massive cult following over here in the UK and had numerous chart hits (both in the club/HINRG and mainstream pop charts)
My favourite DIVINE tracks are...
1) WALK LIKE A MAN
2) JUNGLE JEZEBEL
3) YOU THINK YOUR A MAN
4) NATIVE LOVE
5) TWISTIN THE NIGHT AWAY

The popular UK television program, Top of the Pops, featured Divine in performance on July 19, 1984, [right] resulting in a barrage of complaints.
