in the clip from Hammer to Fall, Roger Taylor is wearing a tshirt with the
text Choose Life.
the group Wham also uses that Tshirt in the clip of Wake me up before you Go
Go

what does this tshirt represent or is it just a meaningless text ?

I believe it was some sort of anti-nuke statement, the like of
which was popular at that time.

I had always assumed it was about abortion. Of course I was 3 when Hammer to
Fall came out so I don't remember the time period.

Since I noticed another one tshirt from that time (with the text Worldwide
nuclear ban NOW), I think that it says all.

I used to think so too, until finding out that it's a regional difference.
Choose Life *is* the type of thing used in the anti-abortion movement *in the
US*. But in the UK and Europe it was used in regards to anti-nuke protests.
