Does a mullet make a man?

[Wouter D]

It hurts when you discover you're on ignore poster doesn't it Wouter D ?

Sometimes the healthy thing to do is to disengage from a thread completely, to defuse the tension. This did not seem like that kind of thread.

[Patrick Thistle]

Hahaha

Disappointing lack of beehive songs, but there's Wig by the B52s.

[MsD]

Quite a few "long blonde hair" songs, though, including Sorrow and Wonderful Tonight.

[Jah Womble]

Guess who’s coming to dinner?

Natty dreadlock.

[MsD]

M’shell Ndegeocello: “let me run my fingers through your dreadlocks” (Dred Loc).

On Damian Marley’s Beautiful he sings about how his gf shampoos his locks every day, which is some feat as they’re nearly six feet long.

[Nefertiti2]

Lots of reggae, obviously

Max Romeo and the Upsetters

One day you are dreadlocks (well dread)
Next day you are baldhead (clean shave)
Onward, forward, don't step backward
Step out of Babylon

i think it was U Roy who advises “ let your locks grown long in a Babylon”

[tee rex]

Stevie Wonder was a nappy-headed boy (I Wish). But it was a couple of decades between me hearing the song and knowing what he sang about.

[Nefertiti2]

Is "Man-free" a hairstyle?

[Kevin S]

Radiohead have this one:

Karma police
Arrest this girl, her Hitler hairdo
Is making me feel ill
And we have crashed her party

[Jah Womble]

Back in 1994, The Charlatans sang of a Jesus Hairdo.

I'm guessing that’s mid-length with a beard.

[MsD]

Adam Ant sang about Hitler’s hair in Tabletalk.

“with your trainangular hair, and your arm in the air”, or something.

I had a haircut that made me look a bit like Hitler as a teen. It was by Keith at Smile (who did Roxy Music and a load of others) but my bf looked at me and said “Hitler”.

[Jah Womble]

Other more general follicular references:

Cut Your Hair - Pavement
Hair - 60 Ft Dolls
Long Hair - The Drowners
Sister Golden Hair - America

Clan Of Xymox had an album called Medusa - who surely had the ultimate in hairdos.

[MsD]

If you like that overdone look.

Terrorvision, Unhappy Millionaire

Making money’s my religion,
I always do what the profits say,
And getting richer’s my intention,
Till I don’t get out of bed for less than a day,
I should be happy, I’m a millionaire,
I got the golden teeth and the perfect hair,
Don’t have no problem,
Don’t seem to care,
I should be happy cos’ I’m a millionaire,

[Jah Womble]

If you like that overdone look.

Well, yeah, it was certainly a statement.

Hmm.

Two of my female friends have mullets at the moment and look gorgeous, but I don't think it does anything for a man.

The rockabilly haircut, on the other hand, is almost universally flattering, although not that many men can carry off an enormous quiff.

This might be a bit sexist of me, sorry. I'm a great believer in people looking the way they want to.

[Simon G]

The captain of my darts team is a rockabilly lad. His quiff 30-40 years ago really was something judging by the photos I've seen.

[laverte]

(Vokuhila is the German slang for mulliet--VOrne KUrz HInten LAng.)

i was taught Dorfschnitt, which is pleasantly evocative ("village haircut").

i don't know of a word for it in French but it's much associated with Chris Waddle (esp in Marseille).

[Jah Womble]

Vokuhila sounds like the front man of a satanist metal band.

[Stumpy Pepys]

I maintain the best Vokuhila was the one sported by Mike Werner of Hansa Rostock.

[Patrick Thistle]

That's epic.

[treibeis]

I maintain the best Vokuhila was the one sported by Mike Werner of Hansa Rostock.

I saw that mullet live, at least twice.
