Strictly speaking all those songs are originally 70s "hits" (or more accurately, Top of the Pops 2 fodder) but I suppose they were probably re-issued in teh 80s.

Stop being daft! And it's euthanasia, not euphanasia! :loopy:

Except for The passions which was 1981 :rolleyes:and the one I'd already commented was a 70's there wasn't much point to that post Rich.

Our lips are sealed Fun Boy Three... which i love anyway.

Just got back from a couple of days in Ibiza, and heard the following THREE times on Spanish radio out there;

"Enjoy the Silence" by Depeche Mode. (80's band, 1990 song!)

Its a classic. Its got a really deep dance beat in it, so perhaps its next for the remix for next year!
