Musical Youth, one of the few people to sign a worse recording contract than Bros! One of them got banged up for nicking cars soon after their demise.
"Pass the Dutchie" is actually a cover version of "Pass the Koochie". A koochie is a bowl for smoking di 'erb. I think the original is by Culture, but can't be bothered to check.
Since commercial shite like Kylie gets right on my tits, here are some fine 80s sounds from down under.
Cult band among fans of Pebbles/Nuggets 60s garage
This one is incredible live. RIP JC.
A nice bit of strummy harmonies + singalong chorus
And of course these. The golden age was the 70s with the scotsman, but this is a fine tribute. One more verse and it would be perfect.

I think he shagged everyone he could get his hands on, male or female! Soft Cell were supposedly the first British band to heavily use ecstacy. It was years before the Happy Mondays etc.
The 12" of that one ends with him shouting "I don't care!" again and again. Its great!
This is about as 80s as it gets.
