Boys Keep Swinging

Aside from an obvious love of music we here at Comeback Kid also harbor an unhealthly passion for video clips. Nothing beats a video clip for capturing fashion extremities through time. Below are five of our favourite fashion highlights (and some pretty catchy songs too), starting in Melbourne in the 1960s and heading through to today. Go guys! Enjoy:

1960sThe Easy Beats Friday on my Mind
Where else should it be? Melbourne's answer to The Beatles, those striped blazers are too hot to handle!

1970s
Michael Jackson Rock with You
I'd rock with anyone if they were wearing that. Why don't I have sequined boots?

1980s
David Bowie Boys Keep Swinging
What? You've never heard this song? Here are some of the lyrics so you can really get into it:

Heaven loves ya/ The clouds part for ya/ Nothing stands in your way/ When you're a boy

Clothes always fit ya/ Life is a pop of the cherry/ When you're a boy

1990s
Arrested Development People Everyday
Aside from being a Comeback Kid favourite this video clip took our love of plaid to crazy levels.

2000s
The Strokes Is This It
You boys better be writing The Strokes thank you letters. This is why your jeans are so freakin' tight.

Yours,
Comeback Kid
