I started this thread up after chatting with my mate about weirdo's in the 1980s, and to be honest there were a few to choose from, mine were
Pete Burns
Grace Jones
Prince
Kate Bush (who I met in 1985)

how about "weird" al yankovic? (probably spelt wrongly)...
anyone remember some dude called Elvis 2000 (or something similar)...same sort of time as SS Sputnik insanity?

Poor old Jacko Started to go weird in the 80's

I don't think Kate Bush is weird. Hyper normal if anything ... ::)
Doctor of Dr & the Medics is professionally weird.

I don't know she's done some pretty weird stuff, her best song "Wuthering Heights" was a weird song about a weird book written by a Victorian weirdo, Emily Bronte.
Cloudbusting and The Dreaming were pretty weird as well.
-
Theres even a group called the Weirdos

Who was that 80s comedian whose catchphrases were " Slither" and "Its weird" , he used to wear a convicts outfit and was always on things like " Live from Her Majestys (w/ Jimmy Tarbuck)" ????
He was proper weird!

Doesn't ring any bells with me, besides I'd never watch anything with the phrase "Her Majesty" in.
