My Time Capsule

Ep. 487 - Limahl


Listen Later

Limahl is best know as the lead singer of 80s band Kajagoogoo, who enjoyed the instant fame of hitting the top of the charts with their debut single "Too Shy”. This was followed by two more Top 20 hits "Ooh To Be Ah" and "Hang On Now" (all of which he co-wrote). Limahl then struck out on his own and hit the charts again with his first solo single ‘Only For Love,’ quickly followed with the Giorgio Moroder–produced worldwide smash ‘Neverending Story’, the theme song from the hit film of the same name. In addition, ‘Neverending Story’ and ‘Too Shy’ were featured on hit TV shows Black Mirror, American Horror Story and Stranger Things. Limahl has returned with his first single release in over 5 years, a reimagining of the 70’s classic ‘A Horse With No Name’ that’s out now. The track, originally recorded by America, reaching No 3 in the UK charts, is Limahl’s first ever cover.


Limahl is our guest in episode 487 of My Time Capsule and chats to Michael Fenton Stevens about the five things he'd like to put in a time capsule; four he’d like to preserve and one he’d like to bury and never have to think about again .
