Dreamscape’s You Tube channel has a great selection of rare Toyah footage to view…
Our You Tube is pretty much what you’d expect from a fan based channel. We’ve compiled a selection of retro interviews, Toyah TV appearances and more from throughout Toyah’s career (which I believe is now in its 45/46th year if Glitter – filmed 1975, aired 1976 – is regarded as the very beginning!). Most of the footage is taken from my old VHS tapes, which I thought I’d do before they disintegrate!
We are rollercoasting towards 2K of subscribers, and our most popular video is Toyah: This Is Your Life, which as of writing has been viewed 360K times. Please click below to visit Dreamscape’s You Tube Toyah channel (which also includes some rare Madonna footage).
With the release of Summer Of Love, there have now been three single previews made available from Toyah’s forthcoming studio album, Posh Pop. These singles have also been accompanied by new video premieres – Watch all three at The Official Toyah You Tube Channel. (Images © Toyah Willcox)
