Porsche & Modern Talking

Songs can trigger memories. I was listening to Modern Talking's Cheri Cheri Lady this afternoon and it reminded me of the time when I was in primary school.

My uncle had just bought a red Porsche 944 back then and he decided to take me out for a spin one day in his new car. He put on his shades and told me to hop in. The tape that was playing in his car was Cheri Cheri Lady (Modern Talking's number one hit in 1985).

Wonderful car + Wonderful song: No wonder I never forgot about Porsche and Modern Talking whenever I think about the 80's. When I searched for "Porsche" on the internet, it came out "Porsche - the ultimate mid life crisis car"....LOL! I guess that's why my uncle bought the scarlet car.

If you are too young to remember the song Cheri Cheri Lady, here's a retro MTV of it. When I saw the cellist playing until his cello caught fire towards the end of the MTV, it almost made me burst into laughter. I also like their "so-80's" hairstyles and lead vocals Thomas Anders wearing his "Michael Jackson wannabe" jacket.
