The girls from Girlschool.

Can't remember their names but they were linked to Motorhead. Think they used support them on tours etc.

Song that sticks out in my mind is Race With The Devil.

Mel, you'll remember that, wont'cha ?

Some of these are one hit wonders I think:

Edie Brikell...( What I am ).

Nena ( who can forget her....could have done with a wax ).

Jennifer Rush.

Bonnie Tyler.

Laura Brannigan ( RIP )...Great voice.

Patti Smith ( was she 70´s aswell ).. Because the night belongs to lovers.........

Alison Moyet ( great voice but was always confused about her).

Ah Mins, Nena and her 99 Red Balloons.

What a terrible song, but I have special memories of it !

Yeah, sure do Rolo!  They did a few duets with Motorhead as well.

On the babes from the 80s, what about Sabrina "Boys, boys, boys!"  (assuming they dont have to be Grove song type babes)

Nice video...

Edit: Oops, just saw the thread title, oh well..maybe she doesnt count then...
