Ride on Time?
Two Tribes was a good track though. One of the Top 10 best sellers of the 80s I believe. I think Relax was second behind Band Aid's effort.

The 80's were just utter utter shite for music (charts i mean), but under the terms of this prop bet, you're lucky, as it's easy to pick out some gems, we can start with this.......... Simple Minds - waterfront was '83

Also from your current list I'd say "this charming man" was 1983 rather than 84 and "kind of magic" was 86 rather than 85 .
I'd also say "never too much" would be much later than 1981 but that may have been remix or something too
Think Abracadabra was 1982
Great thread btw.....must think of some of my own choices now
Yeah,This Charming Man definataly 1983. |
