mixed-gender pop groups - abba, s club, steps - usually come with this blue peter sheen to them which really distracts from any emotional import their lyrics would have in the hands of others; also the men, especially if they sing, tend to be completely superfluous to proceedings. i like songs here and there by all the above groups, but as entities i'm not particularly enthused.

Jackson 5 (as opposed to solo Michael Jackson) is probably one of the closest calls, although I'm not sure what Shakey Mo or Alex in NYC have to say about them.

lex, if you give a fuck about TH just try and watch the "Stop Making Sense" film-umentary cos really to appreciate them you have to see the effort David Byrne put into their live act.

imagine about 20 people jumping around choreographically and playing energetic slap-bass driven post-punk with world beat stuff and backing singers, with the guy out of funkadelic on guitar and fronted by a skinny prep-nerd in a giant suit with a look about him like he's just worked out how to crash the stockmarket with the press of a button.

If there IS an answer to this, its almost certainly someone who's remembered for one big record that a lot of people have fond memories of and nobody hates. Soft Cell maybe.
