Vienna by Ultravox

All the Smiths early stuff.
The original Mad World
Eurythmics. God I so loved Eurythmics. The album Nineteen Eighty Four was brilliant and on it the song Julia in particular was haunting.
Dont know if "The Only way is up" by yazz made it stateside.......Ooooh and how about Ninety nine red balloons ! Lets hear it for the German chick with the wistful voice
Strange thing about the eighties...At the time I would have said i didnt like much of the music in the charts, yet I now like much of what I hear from that time. Even the really crap stuff, ahh the lustre of nostalgia.
