Originally posted by CerebusMy friend Joe went over to Vietnam to get married last month and he brought back all these really great DVD/VCD greatest hits comps, one was a best of Human League that has about 30 videos and live performances. I'd totally forgotten they did the theme song for Electric Dreams.
Actually, it was Philip Oakey & Giorgio Moroder. You can barely make out the names on this cover Google found me:
Well, I was pretty sure the lead singer of Human League was named Philip Oakey, so when I saw VH1 Classic print his name as Phil Oakley, I thought is was incorrect. VH1 should proofread better or I should get my eyes checked.

Oh, I didn't even SEE you mention "Oakley." What I was grousing about is that it was included on the Human League best-of despite technically not BEING a Human League single. The VH-1 Classic "Artist" page is a little sparse but IS there (vh1.com).
I'd say taking the cake is Bob Marley for a record 500 billion mothafuckin' greatest hits albums. Of course, this is none of his fault - he has nothing to do with what money-hungry record folk do with his legacy....I'm just saying though. Search for Bob Marley on Amazon and watch the endless stream.
