PAMELA - UNE AUTRE AUTOROUTEi thought it was time to go back to blowupdolls roots and have a week of slightly more obscure yé-yé marvyness. to begin the week, here's pamela ! if you have never heard this - prepare to be blown away- this version (originally by antoine) is just amazing.

the amazing worldofkane finally sourced this clip from the rarely seen (deep breath...) 'can hieronymus merkin ever forget mercy humppe and find true happiness?' see joan collins sing! i think it's a real shame she didn't record a full album- instead, you'll just have to enjoy this-posted by mordi at
