Just chillin out on a night off listening to some tunes on my Walkman, have Level 42 - lessons in love, on the headphones at the moment, those upstarts Simple Minds coming next on my compilation ‘album’.
Now don’t you forget about me or take on me (or take me on), or does everyone want to rule the world??
What’s yours?
may i suggest you move with the times and buy an ipod!..
An I-what? 
I was just about to market the entirely new, I-forgotten…, then again maybe I did already, not sure.

I would get with the times and buy a digital radio.
Absolute 80s is the station you require 
Spend extra and get an external aerial, the ones that stick to windscreens are worse than hopeless
Gotta admit absolute 80’s is ok, but no no more fleetwood mac please… been thinkin 'bout tomorrrow since last week !! Phew… Need some Roy-O !! 
My friend who is of a certain age (60) has just started doing mobile discos again after 20 years, him and his former MC have got together and will only play vinyl. They have never been so busy 
He has really relit my fire as he has an eclectic view and I am hearing stuff for the first time. Bear in mind I spent most of the 80’s and early 90’s out of the country, there was a lot of stuff I missed out on 
They also do specialist nights and his Northern Soul is very popular as are his specialist Reggae nights.
Recent 80’s performers I am listening to now are almost dead or have gone off the face of the earth.
This is a great reminder of the bands, songs and grainy videos.

I love Simple Minds seen them at M K bowl the same day Maradonna scored the hand of god goal against England and they were great and played for well over 2 1/2 hrs. At the moment got The Cure in the cd player and will probably be followed by Del Amitri or The Smiths.
I want to break free, Queen!! Kings of the 80’s or U2 at their best “The Joshua Tree” 1987!!
Don’t forget Howard Jones! Ah Yes!! Simple Minds! What a band! 
Joshua Tree was excellent album, not to mention Talking Heads ‘Long Player’ Stop making sense - was ‘Road to Nowhere’’ on this one? How apt… Then again could be utter Madness. My name is Michael Caine 
ABC, Japan, Spandau Ballet, The Jam and Soul To Soul.

They laughed at me when I suggested that as a favourite. It was about 1990, but it makes an old man happy still
