For those who are old enough to remember the decade, recommend me some 80's poptastic tunes... I'm thinking along the lines of tunes from such 80's classics as Dire Straits, Michael Jackson, Wham, Spandau Ballet, Tina Turner, etc :D

No Kylie Minogue though, thats just TOO cheesy

The 80's was a bit of a musical wasteland. Pop up to Bristol and spend a Sat night in Reflex, that should sort you out with plenty of 80's :thumb:
