I always loved the carefree, relaxed, attitude of The Bananas. They were three attractive girls who looked as if they'd just met in an Art College bar, and decided that they might do a bit of singing together as a lark.
They ruffled their hair, wore torn jeans, and used lots of very red lipstick. How could they fail!
Here they are with one of their 'hits' from 1983.

One of my all time favorite summer songs!! Love this!!
They were a great trio; all very relaxed and good fun.
Yes, I like them too, good fun and they kept their clothes on as well, unlike today's lot who look as though they're in (or out of) their underwear most of the time!
Good Old Days... doesn't seem all that long ago!!
The original members of Bananarama are now in their early sixties and enjoy lawn bowls and jumble sales.
Quite so! I may not be speaking for all men, but I really don't wish to see nearly naked women all the time. I prefer a little 'mistique'
No, it doesn't does it. The song seems very 'modern'.
And one of them makes prize winning Jam with her local WI
I much preferred Gooseberryrama from Cleckheaton near Bradford. They wore donkey jackets and steel toe-capped boots.
Singing and celebrating summer is a winning combination. Great lyrics.
The sound of Summer.
Cloth caps and Whippets too?
At least you've chosen a group I have heard of and can relate to. These days pop music is a complete mystery to me!
I couldn't agree more! All the 'stars' of stage and screen are completely unknown to me. However, I'm very happy for them that they are all Billionaires.
