We had a theme party at the w/end. The theme was eighties pop music. Many people think the 80's were a dreadful time for pop. But was it ? Our only rule was to try to stay away from the hugely popular, Dire straits and all that. Here is what we played; Ktafwerk/Electric Café Joni Mitchell/Chalk Mark In A Rainstorm Kate Bush/ The Dreaming The Waterboys/ Fishermans Blues The Art of Noise/Art of Noise World Party/ Goodbye Jumbo XTC/ Oranges and Lemons Bruce Cockburn/ Inner City Front The Smiths The Queen is Dead The Clash/ London Calling Johnny Clegg and Jaluka/ Scatterlings So, perhaps the eighties weren't that bad. Do you have some favourite pop music from that time.
