Now That's What I Call 1983 - IVT1 now ..!

[jodee]

Takes me back to when I was 16 doing my O Levels, listening to Tony Hadley singing True ...

what a dirge, hated this song.

I'm off to dig up my Smash Hits annual from 1983...it's great...all stripy and full of little anecdotes from HJ, NK and PY. Can't stand red red wine, so glad of the diversion! Enjoy!

I love Sade too.

Red red wine however I did not and this song takes me straight back to the New Forest family camping holiday and I wanted to be anywhere but!

am gearing myself up for Tone ..

I don't consider fecking UB40 as proper '80s music

my mum was into it!

Nick Beggs has played with HJ a couple of times when I've seen him, also with ABC.

In fact, at Howard's 25th anniversary gig back last Sept, he had Nicks Beggs, Heyward, and Kershaw as guests, and Paul Young and Limahl at the party.

Funny that, no-one liked that song...

yeah, I love Sade too

OOOh I was 7 and remember everyone of these especially Red Red Wine, my mum used to play it on her tape player in the kitchen whilst cooking/cleaning and swaying her hips. I thought she was ace.

Red red wine is a good song, which UB40 made very popular despite utterly ruining it!

we should organise a Mumsnet outing to '80s gig (pref one with Howard in it)

would LOVE to see Duran Duran

Dinny...oh no, does that mean my dc won't be able to acknoweldge most of the music from this decade 'cos I like it? Ah well, happy to ruin her childhood for the sake of some good 'toons'!!!

Bonnie Tyler stop shouting woman

Keep it under your hat, but I bought 2 tickets for next year's Here And Now tour for dp for Christmas.

Remember my mum dancing to red, red wine. I think I told her she was disgusting. I was a real prude as a kid

TONE!!!
