Today's flashback to 1983 gives us a video set in 1870 with a lead singer dressed up from the 80's and featuring a thief/cheater who gets his just due at the end of the video when he has to walk the plank on the Mississippi. It's a silly little video from a silly little group who fared very well in the early to mid 80's. Here is the eclectic Boy George and Culture Club with the group's biggest hit and only #1 hit in the States - "Karma Chameleon"...
