I received the following from one of Occulomency's readers:
"Tech question. In "Hungry like a wolf" why does Mr Le Bon have bright yellow hair under his hat for some of the video and not for the rest? I'm glad he did keep it under a hat because it looked pretty tragic ... just wondering, you obviously have the answer."
I think I covered it well enough in my post Straddle the Line, because basically, I don't know. However, I guess this begs the question: "can Simon's hair ever look truly tragic?"
Well, lets find out.
Exhibit A:
Not so bad. I tried this look back in 1973.
Obviously I had a much cooler nylon jumper, though. Result: Neither of us look 'Tragic'
Exhibit B:
Hmm, not a bad haircut, but I'm not sure about the sunglasses. I'm really not. Mind you, I'm not one to talk. I have sported unsual accessories myself on occasion.
I'm saying not tragic, more unfortunate and that's down to poor accessorizing.
Exhibit C:
Erm.... It was 1984. We all looked a bit odd in 1984. I looked like this:
Result: Not tragic, more a product of the times.
Exhibit D:
Ah. That's not good, is it? He has my sympathy.
Holy crap on a cracker.....
Result: Tragic, happy now?
Simon, if you read this, here's a quick fix for those very bad hair days:
It's 'The Reflex' next time. I bet you all can't hardly wait.
