Vintage Computer Games

I was just revisiting a fantastic mix by Silencefiction posted by our sisters at A.R.A.W.A. last year and was reminded of this great, vintage song from The Presets of 1979, Australian Aria winners Mi-Sex. Their Numan-esque synthpop/pubrock ditty “Computer Games” went to #1 in Australia in 1981.

I realize with that photo that everybody are computer game additives. There is no generation gape to play games.
I thought only youngsters enjoyed computer games, but I was wrong.
I love that song! Thanks for posting the vid! I’d never seen it:)
