England's Kajagoogoo's "Too Shy" rocked my world in 1983. |
Though this one-hit-wonder only reached #5 on the 1983 Top 100 Billboard chart, Kajagoogoo nailed it with this totally tubular new wave jam. Sing it with me, "Hey girl, move a little closer ... You're too shy, shy, hush, hush eye to eye..."

Kajagoogoo actually found a way to keep their hair frizzy without using cans upon cans of aquanet.
It saved them thousands of dollars each year when they found the same look could be reached by sticking your peepee in an electrical socket...
Maybe that's why they were a one-hit wonder? It was too painful to be a long-lasting band like Queen?
Goodness, there is no end to the excellent content you provide us with here.....
I may not comment much, but you can believe I check out your every post!
oh god the memories
I do remember.
Everything was going so well for Limahl until the press found out he shared a flat with disc jockey Paul Gambaccini during his heyday, leading to rumours in the tabloid press that the two were lovers, a claim which both denied.
Nowadays that wouldn't matter, but then it did.
Lovely blog and post! keep up the great work!
I am in idiot. I deleted my first comment because I wrote it wrong! I love Kajagoogoo "Voices Carry".
Lost - you're way too funny.

Moo-Welcome to my blog and thanks!
LL Cool- wow, for reals? I never knew that. Times were so diff back then.
Jason - thanks, kid!
Random - dude, that's 'Til Tuesday, I'm confused...
I wish curly hair was still in style. All you need was a perm and you were off and running.
They sure had the hair going, didn't they? Love the song - and I remember it.
OMG, the HAIR! I love that song though.
The hair and the song both stir something deep inside me. Something like a fit of the giggles.
AACK! It's one of those horrible songs that, once inside your head, doesn't leave for a long time!!! Trying to sing something else to myself right now so this ding dong song doesn't have a chance!
