YouTube - Hoodoo Gurus - What's My Scene (1987)

I loved the Hoodoo Gurus, but hated this song...was the end for me, they had just gone too cheesy, and lost all their real grunt...bit like Skyhooks, another favourite band of mine, when they bought out Jukebox in Siberia...absolute garbage IMHO!

Now this i like a lot, from 1988, the kiwi mob, "The The"!
