There and to the left a bit |
Blimey could be here all night listing my favourite 80s songs but anything by any of the following would get a look in:
Madness
The Beat
The Specials
Dexys
The Jam
Prefab Sprout
The Housemartins
Beautiful South
Secret Affair
ABC
The Clash
The Redskins
With the possible exception of Come On Eileen (overplayed) and Driving In My Car (just crap) anything by any of the above would fall into my personal best of the 80s playlist. |

Don't take this personal, it's just one of the few opportunities to share one of my all time 80's favourite B'sides- Gotta love Hunts lyrical prowess

Yes. Owner of a lonely heart
Chris deburgh Lady in Red
That was classic last song in a club to ask a bird to dance with a view to hopefully play hide the sausage afterwards  |
