Teenage pop star crushes…( a very shallow thread…)

RINGO STARR! 😱Yuk!I believe Paul Jones has worn well and so did Dave Jones of the Monkees( RIP)

Did nobody fancy Mick Jagger?

I think I may have gone for Mick.
He had that air of danger about him.

He was a bit before my time, really

Oooh no, I couldn't have coped with those lips MissA.

No comment.

DH and I saw Andy Fairweather Lowe years ago at The Sage, Gateshead. He was so changed that he took his hat off and leaned into the audience and said ‘yes, it really is him!’ However, he sounded exactly the same.

Michael Hutchence -gorgeous, but I think dangerous to know!

Oh wasn't he just delicious.
It was late at night, and I was going to make some toast, but the sight of Michael stopped me in my tracks, literally.

Another Cat Stevens fan here. I too had a gorgeous poster of him.
But my biggest crush was Jonny Walker, his was the only fan club I ever joined. I fell in love with his voice and would have my little radio glued to my ear every night for his ‘Goodnight spot’ on Radio Caroline & loved Frinton Flashing as well. Can anyone else remember those pirate radio days? He played some wonderful soul music. It was years before I would listen to Radio 1.

Was old yeller a dog?

He was. They then made a film called Savage Sam which wasn’t as popular but it’s the one I remember and loved ( sings ‘there’s a hound dog back in Texas tiddly pom’). The internet is such a Time Machine. I watched Tommy Kirk and Savage Sam tonight. I think I rather liked Kevin Corcoran who always played Tommy Kirk’s younger brother, too. I’m going to get the grandchildren so watch Swiss Family Robinson to see if they like it.

Thanks MayBee70

Agree with so many suggestions. Paul Jones, Davy Jones (thought he sang Daydream Believer for me 😍), George Harrison, Paul Rodgers, David Cassidy, David Essex (still gorgeous) and Louella12 mentioned Pete Duel - I was also devastated when he died.

Alan Williams' of The Rubettes also gets my ticker thumping!

Andy Fairweather-Lowe here too, not good looking as such, but pre-pubescent me was probably having a crush and not knowing why!

David Essex
Davy Jones (came into restaurant where I worked in London, unpretentious, charming, small.
Keith Richard (truly beautiful as a young man)
James Taylor
Cat Stevens, then and now, he has aged well
Peter Frampton

DAVID ESSEX i stood behind him in the bank i couldn't speak or move and then he left he is totally gorgeous a bit shorter than I thought

Oddly my music crushes were/are not my type in real life. Paul Weller, Eminem, Donny Munroe....eclectic range of music.

However, a year or so ago i saw (on TV) Morten Harket singing acoustically, i was never a fan back in the day, but he was so good and i will admit to a 'ooooh i say.....' moment! He is now on my list of people i want to see live.

At the age of 7, I was going to marry George Harrison but by age 11 I'd ditched him for Barry Gibb (pre disco)!

Peter Sarsdedt and Dave Dee and Cat Stevens

I just checked out Cat Stevens, as he seems quite a popular guy.
He was handsome.

Still is. Did an amazing set at Glastonbury last year.

Years ago we had a music club at work. Each month we bought an LP and everyone taped it ( but don’t tell anybody ). When it was my turn to choose I chose Ah a and was mocked for it. They were deemed to be too pop’y. But they really have stood the test of time and are widely acclaimed. Not sure if they’re still performing together…they seem to split up and reform on a regular basis. Like many bands they seem to hate each other and I can’t help but feel Mortens gorgeousness contributed to it!
