Seems in Cyprus they only like commercial music.

So you like black music eh? Here's something very funky that hit the discos in Cyprus early eighties and everyone went stupid over it... I won first prize dancing to this (couples) in a Paphos hotel competition with my sister! :oops: :lol:

Brass Construction - Can You See the Light? (1982)

As far as posting embedded youtube vids goes, it's pretty easy. Just do [youtube][/youtube] and post the URL from Youtube between the tags.

hahaha Get Real - Can You Feel The Force and Your The One For Me are chooooooooons!

Technically Rock is black music because it stems from Rock and Roll which was the racist white term for Rhythm and Blues which is black music! :D
