Erm, that was 1977! But you can do anything you wanna do so putting it in the 80s is ok.

Big Sky - Kate Bush

Most of that decade passed me by. Music became about the technology rather than the song.

Classic track mate, but I think it was late 70's. Saw them in Newcastle and a brilliant gig it was.

My best 80's track has to be Going Underground from The Jam.

Good call. Just makes the 80s. I remember them doing it live on TotP and going straight to #1.
