    Fair enough, but is it sex robots or actually robotic sex he means? Hmm..
    "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    Well, late 90s / early 00s, really.

    Always accompanied by a glamourous lady, as well. Flying suit and 6" heels.

    Phwoar!

    The song is from '79; definitively slap-bang in the middle of the 80's.

    Amazing when that song turned up on TOTP. Went out and bought it the next day.

    There was a B-side, 'Complex', that was on my local's juke box. I heard it when I was stoned on some old fashioned Red Leb and it went straight into the neural pathways and I listened to nothing else for about a week. I listened to it again recently and immediately felt that strange eeriness the song would trigger 40 years ago.

    Absolutely! And in other vintage pop news, Soft Cell are reforming for a one-off concert. Terrific.
