# 329 Marie Marie - Do you do you brush your teeth ?


Side a: Do you do you brush your teeth ?
Side b: Grasshopper
BEL/FRA 1980
A cool "Plastic Bertrand" sound alike track on the a side by this belgian girl. The b side is more new wave but not bad. I think this was only a studio project and only released in France on the major label "Vogue". I like it this record !!

# 325 Bucks Danny - Be my girl


Side a: Be my girl
Side b: Time to fight
NL/BEL 1980
Second single by the belgian band Bucks Danny (named after a french comic hero) and only released in the Nederlands. The singer was a member of the mighty "Hubble Bubble". The record i own isn't in a good shape and the b side has a lot of crackles and backnoises. But it's the better record than the first one "Stick to you". And i love the a side !
