Brilliant Funky! My sis made me a compilation tape to take to school and they were the first two tracks on it. Followed by... Rock me Amadeus - anyone?

Defo going to use some of those - thanks Loopz '80s massive

What's a good Boomtown Ratsson besides Mondays...?

Dont think they did anything else worthwhile did they ?

Rock me Amadeus is the b*ll*x!!

The only other Bootown Rats song I know is Ratrap which i used to love, but surely Monday's would be the most popular?

Oohh what about Pet Shop Boys - It's a sin

Here's my 3:

That Hoax isn't Funny Anymore
Hoax Soon is Now?
Heaven Hoax I'm Miserable Now

I'll get me coat...

Coincidentally..
Did you know that the drummer out of The Smiths, Mike joyce, used to play in a band called The Hoax before joining The Smiths.
Check it out, its true.

Men without hats - Safety Dance (its a naff tune i know, but good to boogie to)

Rediscorvered Neneh Cherry's 'Manchild' the other day... what an awesome tune...

Thinking about it, Ratrap or Rat Trap probably was late 70's (god- how OLD am I?!)

Ooh Neneh was good. I loved the video to Manchild with that fit bloke in it.

Why hasn't anyone said Rick Astley yet

Paul Hardcastle - 19
Yazz and the Plastic Population - The only way is up
Morris Minor and the majors - Stutter Rap

So many to choose from, dunno why I've chosen these 3, probably because i used to tape the top 40 when I lived abroad and these songs remind me of those tapes.

Oh yeh and Swingout Sister.... Breakout.
