     Bikini Girl - Rebel Girl

     Helen Reddy - Angie Baby

     All three are not my original picks; Slide because I usually go with Shitlist; Wargasm or Pretend, We're Dead and often forget how great that whole album was. Rebel Girl, because usually it's the famous Chinese Red Army Ballet vid; but I wanted the energy; that I will always regret I never got to experience, of the live performance and Angie Baby, because when I was looking for my favourite vid of one my favourite defining teenage songs I suddenly discovered this animated version.

    First ever song by this band I ever heard; taken far too young in a hit and run. 

    R.I.P. Kak Channthy ~ Never to be forgotten.

I couldn't remember who sang the song Slide that sprang to mind, but it was clearly not the same band ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mlqLRx2f14

I hadn't heard the second one either, but as it happens I listened to Angie Baby recently because I was doing music file conversions to get them to run properly on my phone. I always liked it because it was both very evocative of a lot of girls' tween years while at the same time having the supernatural element to it that suggested that Angie would be just fine.

I knew there had been another song called Slide; probably not the only one of course, but I think I have heard that one before somewhere; was it in a movie, or a TV show maybe? Totally different song of course; because L7's was written by two members of the band, but wherever I heard it it's nice to be reminded.
