Oh and does anyone remember I little know song of the 90s called “It must be love” by Mero. It only got to 33 in the charts but I loved it and the band never heard of again. I don’t know how it didn’t do better it was completely the style of the 90s

Great thread OP and so many fab suggestions.

Missing - Everything but the Girl
Dreaming - The Lilac Time
I Love You Goodbye - Thomas Dolby
Fred Astaire - James
Somewhere In My Heart - Aztec Camera

Pretty sure a fair few posters on here would love absolute 80's radio and especially the "forgotten 80's" show on a Sunday night - thank me later

Some of the songs mentioned are played regularly on absolute 80's

There's also absolute 90's etc

Good thread for building a playlist though

Mintsmints I had the Lene Marlin album, loved it! Around the same time I remember listening to All Saints a lot too so I’m also going to add Pure Shores to my list.

I grew up in the north west and we used to get Atlantic 252 on longwave radio. I swear they only had three songs on rotation in the early 90s - Richard Marx, Right Here Waiting; Joshua Kadison, Jessie; and Shanice, I Love Your Smile. I can’t even think of the Shanice track without being zoomed right back there

I know I am like with the Shanice song as well. Straight back to the 90s in the summer

Some awesome songs on this thread!

Garbage- Only Happy When It Rains
Chris Cornell- You Know My Name
Belly- Now They'll Sleep
The Jam- Beat Surrender

Lloyd Cole - My bag

The Veronicas - Untouched

@Graphista I love Forgotten 80s too - I also like the Top 40 show earlier in the day.

Sunrise Avenue - Fairytale gone bad

might be more rock than pop tbf

Mark Owen - 4 minute warning

Here’s a random one to show my age - Could have told you so by Halo James

My Alexa is going to be busy tomorrow with playing some of these I had forgotten about. Mine are:

Wide Open Space - Mansun
Hedonism - Skunk Anansie

@MooseBeTimeForSummer

Here’s a random one to show my age - Could have told you so by Halo James

Brilliant track

You and Me Song by the Wannadies

Marlene on the Wall

This is how we party by Soap.

@35andThriving love Tanita Tikaram. Twist in my Sobriety.

Alison Moyet - Ordinary Girl

Anyone by Kirsty MacColl RIP 🥲

@QuidcoQueen

Crazy for you - let loose

That’s just been added to my Spotify playlist! Great song.

All radios in our house, phone, car are tuned to Absolute 80s

The Noisettes - Don’t Upset theRhythm & Never Forget You. Brilliant songs, they were everywhere a few years ago and nothing now.

Crazy for you by Let Loose
