80’s Sunday Rewind: cruel summer edition

There is only one summer theme song as far as I'm concerned and that's "Cruel Summer" by Bananarama, baby.  How awesome is this song?  Well, they wouldn't have put it in Karate Kid if it weren't awesome.  And I have no idea why it's playing automatically — I'm sorry about that and I'll try to figure it out.  Edit: ugh.  Couldn't make it stop!  Here's Bananarama singing it on Britian's Top of the Pops.

The song goes with the post I've been working on for a few days that should be posted later today or tomorrow.

Sometimes for fun listening there is nothing better than a good girl pop group and Bananarama did it well.  How well?  Does a little song called "Venus" ring a bell?  Here's a few more vids for your Sunday.  Oh, and Bananarama's back in September with a new album.
