I've been listening to 80s music tonight. So far I've listened to the following:

Nena - 99 Red Balloons

Survivor - Eye of the Tiger

Men at Work - Down Under

The Blow Monkeys - It Doesn't Have to be This Way

The Lotus Eaters - The First Picture of You

Haircut 100 - Fantastic Day

What should I play next? Only good songs please

Oh, crikey... once I get started on New Order I'll be listening to them all night.

Better save them until a bit later on.

Currently trying to remember who sang the song which was about going to different cities, and had a line that went "we can call on people I know in Newcastle. Or even Glasgow".

Think I may have to ask Google who it was.

"Sweet Child of Mine- G n R"

I saw a Guns n Roses tribute band the other week. Their version of this was amazing.

They're called Guns 2 Roses. If you get the chance to see them, it's well worth it.

The 80's where a strange era for me. Its when i progressed in life the most, going from an off my head teenager at 15 to a respectable mother of a baby at 25. The music also changed lots as well
