I can't tell you what the current no. 1 is but I know every song on this programme and they can actually sing.
I think that I might have to squirt some Anais Anais on and dig out my Heather Shimmer lipstick.

Panache is the perfume you want! So stylish!

MrsMoastyToasty · 14/06/2025 21:14

I'm going to kick off my stilettos and dance to Prince.

God I loved Wham!

TooBigForMyBoots · 14/06/2025 21:28

Me too.❤️❤️❤️😁

CarpetKnees · 14/06/2025 21:29

Found this by accident.
Sooooooooooooo good.

As you say, I can sing through every one of these songs, but have no chance of remembering what it was I was going to write down, by the time I've dug out my pen from the bottom of my bag.

1985 must be the best year for music ever.

Same OP!

Yes watching and singing along to every word 😂 Remembering my shoulder pads, houndstooth skirt and my fishnets 🤩

Haha glad it’s not just me!

We’re loving this!
We just said that in 40 years, will our children be able to sing all the lyrics of today’s songs?
Such great music!

Aworldofmyown · 14/06/2025 21:38

I was only 6 but am also happily singing along. What a fab year!

Moveoverdarlin · 14/06/2025 21:41

Every song is an absolute classic. Many will be being played at weddings and parties up and down the UK tonight.

I couldn’t name one song of 2025.

MrsMoastyToasty · 14/06/2025 21:56

Just so the message is clear...Simon Le Bon is mine.

The female singers don't have to resort to prancing around in their knickers to get noticed. Alison Moyet, Annie Lennox and Whitney Houston all have much better voices than the women who took part in this year's Eurovision.

That’s fine… John Taylor is mine!

What a year for music! Also the year of the Live Aid concert.

1984 just beats it for me, but its close!

Me too but remember every song ! Actually don’t want to go to bed in case I miss a classic 😆

MrsMoastyToasty · 14/06/2025 22:28

I was 18 at the time so would have been spending most Friday and Saturday nights out dancing the night away in Bristol's nightclubs.

Nah, Poison for me. Launched in 1985 too. 😎 And outstanding year for music. I'll catch this on iPlayer.

No...Dior Poison is the one to wear. Along with your pencil skirt suit, power shoulders, pussy bow tie, patterned sheer tights and stiletto court shoes with metal heel tips that got caught in the gaps on the wooden escalators in tube stations. Oh and carrying a black attaché case. Those were the days!

You can have him if I can have the chap from Aha. Quite unfeasibly good looking he is.

Morten Harket? He was and still is lovely. Very sad about his recent Parkinson's diagnosis.
