I was born in 1980 and at the end of the decade was HEAVILY into all the SAW stuff...Kylie, Jason, Sonia...

Possibly my absolute favourite song though was “Leave A Light On” by Belinda Carlisle. I had the vinyl single and played it incessantly (which is harder to do with a record than a CD!) Happy days.

Pet Shop Boys - Introspective ( All of it }

Tom's Diner - Suzanne Vega
Fast Car - Tracy Chapman
Sally Cinnamon -Stone Roses

Think they're all late 80s anyway!

George.

It's always George. So missed.

Glen medeiros 🤣. Taylor Dane..... tell it to my heart, belting tune.

Anything by Heart (Alone etc) Ann Wilson is epic
Love Susana Hoff of The Bangles fame (Eternal Flame was 89)

Love Billy Joel and Bruce Springsteen too.

Eternal Flame - The Bangles
Perfect - Fairground Attraction

Takes me back to being about 7 in the school playground

Groovy kind of love - Phil Collins
China in your Hands - T’pau
With or without you- u2
Fast car - Tracy chapman
When will I be famous- bros

Star Trekkin the firm
W
Too many broken hearts - Jason Donovan
Especially for you - Kylie

Everything by Paul Young. I loved him so much I decided when I was 11 I was going to marry him one day. I never did.

I couldn't pick just one, the 80s were a great decade. If we're talking about chart hits then I'll say:
The Bangles - Hazy Shade of Winter
Sam Brown - Stop
Robert Howard & Kym Mazelle - Wait
Roachford - Cuddly Toy
I could name many more...
