This one really takes me back to my high school, days one of the sweetest videos of the New Wave era. Bluebells guitarist Robert Hodgens co-wrote "Young at Heart" with Siobhan Fahey of Bananarama -- it appeared on the girls' "Deep Sea Skiving" debut in 1983 -- but it wasn't until his band released it in 1984 did it hit the U.K. Top 10. Then nearly a decade later, the song was used in a VW advertisement and shot to the top of the charts, where it remained for four consecutive weeks. I never got to see the band live -- they were part of the Scottish invasion I adored so much that also included Aztec Camera and Orange Juice -- but I see that they have done some reunion gigs as recently as May 2011. High school was a long time ago, but there's still hope that I can see them live -- even if I'm barely young at heart these days.
