A little late for Valentines Day, but love endures forever, as you are well aware. Like a child without a watch, this video is timeless. 2nd Challenge was to create a music video in a day. This is David and my tribute to the 80s - music videos’ finest decade. Bonus points if you can guess which CLASSIC MUSIC VIDEO I drew direct inspiration from! I take full responsibility for all bad event pun lyrics and cheesy harp lines.

After the 1988 Games, Edwards enjoyed a varied career in television and music, and in 2008 he returned to Calgary to help celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Games.
