ROBBIE NEVIL NEEDED THE NAUGHTY GIRLS ON THIS MUSIC CLIP NEARLY AS MUCH AS TIM BADRICK STILL DOES




If I were getting any amount of comments, I would bother to improvise a longer article on this guy's entire recording output, fillers and all. 

Robbie Nevil came and mysteriously went from the pop rock scene after recording three albums best described as patchy and hit and miss. 

He went on to become a well respected writer and music producer over the past two decades with seemingly no plans ever to go back on stage himself or into a recording studio as an artist instead of a knob tweaker. 

Perhaps Nevil could be best summed up as too much of a pop metal try-hard, when he was only capable of popping instead of rocking. 

His 1991 album was his most ambitious and
provocative, albeit not as successful as his previous two. 

The album is called DAY 1, apart from the quite successful single JUST LIKE YOU, which is featuring on the You Tube video clip above, the album was a complete commercial disappointment. 

Maybe this was the reason Nevil decided to give it away as a musician and concentrate on being a music producer. 

This song, JUST LIKE YOU, is a real raunchy
affair, I had a request to write something about GIRLS ON FILM or HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLF by Duran Duran, but they were highly successful singles which continue to get airplay to this day, so I decided to run with this song which has many similarities to the lewd themes of naughty girls which Duran Duran attempted to articulate on their video clips. 

Nevil was never the world's best guitarist, but he is pretty convincing with this song. But lets be honest Tim, you only like this song because the video is just overflowing with chicks who need it bad 'just like you'.
