Yes i know this could be the most difficult question that you could ever answer but which David era is your favourite (the japan looks only)?

examples....

(1978)

(1979)

(1981)

(1982)

Hmm. I love love LOVE them all- But I would have to say 1981! 1982 is a close second!

-Kera-

I think i'd have to go for 1979. Those pictures are the ones i first saw of the whole band and what really drew me into them. I love his hair around that era and his clothes are fantastic...but then, i always love his hair and his clothes are always fantastic

Yes! Definitly! What was the first picture that you ever saw of David Sylvian? (I mean the one that really got you... Hehe) For me it was this one:

PS: When posting pictures in a thread, please try not to make them too big! No more then 700 pixels wide please!

mmm..the GTP cover has always been one of my favourite photos of him...all that make up
the one i remember seeing when i was first introduced to them was the one i posted above, the 1978 one and then i saw the early videos and that was it

Very very close between 1979 and 1981, for me! I chose '81, though. It's hard to pick- I go by the motto, "Any David Sylvian is a good David Sylvian".

I know I definitely had a minor heart attack first time I saw the GTP cover. So did my mom, but for a completely different reason.

Well, the very first picture I ever saw of David has to be that one he posed for in Playgirl (or Playboy... *hides*) back in 1980...

Ha! Kidding! No, I think the first I saw was the cover of Quiet Life. I stared at it for the longest time.

Sylvian Girl, the easiest question for that who thinks beautiful aggression is the best way to fight
And Barbie-esque graceful punk is always rarest and thousand times cooler than all those polished synthesizers!

is it this one? im not sure but it might be

Blimey, if ever anyone looked less relaxed on a photo shoot..hehehe..

I thought you were joking when you said he's been in Playgirl....

My favourite look is 79/80, after he'd cut his hair and gone more 'New Romantic' (for want of a better phrase)...which would be summed up by the following...(hey, an excuse for another pic)

well, he might not have been in playgirl, i dont really know if that's true but that photo could have been

Hehehehe, well if he WAS in Playgirl my perfect image of him as an aloof thinking woman's crumpet has been permanently shattered.

Just kidding... David could have appeared in the buff in every girly mag on the planet for all I care and I'd still love him...

I'm with Sylvian girl , I love all the looks but that 1979 look is what hooked me when I first saw them at the video for 'I second that emotion'... I love the 'Quiet Life' look , though I should say that I just love him with that long blonde hair from the very beggining too and in his great make up in GTP's cover [Even , sometimes I wear a very similar dark blue eye shadow for going out cause it's so cool!!! ]
