If Martika is watching these specials, I can hear her saying, "I know my career wasn't all that VH-1, but I did have 4 hits!"Malcolmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02065814455731328574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13754190.post-90209339349591975302010-02-08T19:17:23.521-05:002010-02-08T19:17:23.521-05:00I don't like this song any better than "T...I don't like this song any better than "Toy Soldiers", but Martika is so hot that she made me forget about Debbie Gibson for a couple of months.words...words...words...https://www.blogger.com/profile/02441563723665841808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13754190.post-32807374619847919062010-02-08T11:43:41.062-05:002010-02-08T11:43:41.062-05:00Guilty confession time: I'm actually a fan of ...Guilty confession time: I'm actually a fan of Martika. Like, still. I have her greatest hits on my iPod. Toy Soldiers was her best song, but there were many more (in England, anyway) and her unique brand of 80s pop is definitely a guilty pleasure for me.<br /><br />Check out the Prince-penned 'Love, thy Will be Done' and the utterly ridiculous 'Martika's Kitchen'. They're absolute classics.The Imaginary Reviewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00525958928789383304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13754190.post-20575336173347532782010-02-07T20:10:44.806-05:002010-02-07T20:10:44.806-05:00Nice...
