Famous Sylvian look alikes

[GentlemenTakePolaroids]

Anyone seen the video on you tube where it compares Sylvian with Bowie ? Some of the pictures were so alike I couldn't tell between them.

I wouldn't be surprised if Michael Monroe nabbed his look from David, circa Adolescent Sex/Obscure Alternatives era.

Yeah...I used to think so too...

Michael used to look sooo sexy. I love that photo of him...and his voice...I could never figure out where that deep, powerful voice was coming from, I mean to look at him, I just thought he would have a higher voice. It's really sad how Hanoi ended prematurely...I always wondered what it would be like if Razzle was still around.

I've never thought that Michael was influenced by David in the way of looking - he had another idols that time and in '79 he appeared looking more like Debbie Harry, 60's style eyeliner and striped suit... and, hell, they're STILL GREAT - look and sound

as well as NY Dolls!

I agree with S3pB. Mike Monroe was such a dish. It's a shame he hasn't aged as well as the guys in Japan

Wow, I saw your sig! Nice to see alot of Hanoi fans here, they are still one of my favorite bands of all time. There is a rumor that GNR ripped that line off from Hanoi for "Welcome to the Jungle."

Oh, Sweet Shining! I think not only "Welcome to the Jungle" has some references and bows.. Axl looked funny with teased hair in the video for "Welcome..." Oh, Yeah, early Japan and Hanoi Rocks are lifelong favs for that vague common air around them they still had...

Well, take some speed. As you can see it's worked wonders for Mr. Monroe. BTW, Michael Monroe is a fantastic frontman, and Hanoi Rocks were a brilliant band.
