Wow!!!! This takes me back! I actually remember Kajagoogoo and Limahl. They were a Brit band that had a funky-sexy-jazzy-pop sound.
Rumchocolates, I give you 5 stars for even knowing who this chick IS! She was joined to Limahl's hip, but few people knew her by name. I just called her "His Girl."
Really cool video. Thanks for sharing.

Well, Limahl hasn't been able to duplicate that aura with anyone else I've seen him perform with. He's become a bit of a stiff shirt now and the soul he used to evoke from his voice he needs to get back to doing. He needs to use his voice as an instrument of his soul. He sings very well, but he doesn't emote at all. There's no feeling him.
The eyes are windows of the soul.
The body is a vessel of the soul.
The voice is an instrument of the soul.

Mandy Newton is currently acting with the Gutted Film and Theatre Company and can be seen in the play '12 Angry Women' in the summer of 2010 in London

Not sure...but I went to school with her. Lovely girl. If you remember a song called It's over, by the Funkmasters. She wrote it. Huge hit at the time.

What is Mandy doing these days??

Limahl doesn't like to talk about his personal life (girlfriends or boyfriends). I doubt you'll find blurbs about is romantic life on his site.

Hmmmm, that would explain the chemistry between them that I notice in these videos after all these years. BUT, I've been on Limahl's website and he doesn't mention Mandy Newton anywhere on his site that I came across. He does have old photos up, but photos of him working with Mandy aren't there. And from what I've gathered, they performed together a lot during the release of his first solo album. She would be by his side at performances even if the band wasn't.

yeah, according to him, they were an "item."

Were these two actually a couple? Thanks great video!

Yes Yes, Limahl did sound like a black woman when Kajagoogoo first came out. I second that.
About Mandy, MTV VJ's announced her on several occassions as Limahl's lady friend, companion, and they've even announced her as his girlfriend. If my memory serves me correctly, at a BBC performance, a host flat out asked Limahl if they were an item and he replied "yes," while he was holding her hand on stage. ♥

When I first heard the song Too Shy on the radio, I thought Limahl was a Black woman.
Mandy was supposed to be in a British sitcom named Reprezent. I've seen the trailor for it, but I don't know the update on the show.
