He played "Jareth the Goblin King", in the 1986 Jim Henson film "Labyrinth".

He suggested that his fans should vote via phone which tracks he should play for his 1990 world tour, "The Laughing Gnome" (regarded by many as his worst song) was the most requested. He didn't play it.

I have a few hundred in Saddam Hussein Iraqi money, not worth the paper they were printed on.


I also have some coins and notes from every country I have visited. US money is the only one I can't hold on to.  :lol:

I'll hold it for you.  :goodboy:

I have a wife for that, she is real good at spending it for me too. :)

Our prince consort retired January 1st so the Queen had to hold all the New Year's receptions alone. The prince was spotted entering a sex/swinger club last night.
