Saturday Song Pick

Just like Ringtones (The Crazy Frog tracks) it seems like Video Games are influencing our music charts. This is a track from the recently released game "Mirrors Edge" title Still Alive by Lisa Miskovsky, which I think will be things when it's released.

Toy Thursday

This week for Toy Thursday we give you some retro advertisements from the 80's.



Before Tickle ME Elmo there was Talking ALF. This is a great representation of how bad and yet how great the 80's was.



This next one is a classic, as we are introduced to the Michael Jackson doll. I wonder, if they did an update for this ad now whether the doll would look more like a Barbie.
