Retro Saturday: Kon Kan

Going back to the 80s again for this week's Retro Saturday, and this week I've got some tracks you might either never heard of, or maybe just totally forgotten about.

First one tonight is "I Beg Your Pardon" by Kon Kan, from 1989, which could definitely be called a "one-hit-wonder" at least here in the UK. A very catchy electropop song, mixing New Order-ish vocals with a memorable chorus which sampled "Rose Garden" by Lynn Anderson. I hadn't heard this one for years, but it popped into my mind the other day and I thought this would be just perfect for Retro Saturday. Find it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAw-YYKkqWE
