I nearly put that on - as probably one of the songs I hated most.
DEFINITELY tried to forget that one

Just had to deep dive into google to see if that was Agnetha on the train (it was).

Tragically killed just as they were getting traction. Requiem is such a brilliant 80s song. I'll link it below 'cos why not.

Ok here's an interesting one....this is now one of my favorite 80s tracks, but I swear I never, ever heard it until it was on Stranger Things (and I instantly Shazamed it to see what it was). No idea how it passed me by?? Anyone else?

Radio 6, Spotify and Goalscrounger mixes are all great sources for songs you never knew you didn't know.

Another brilliant track from London Boys. Requiem.

I might learn this to add to my odd covers collection. Possibly without the back-flips.

Always produced top quality music but never quite broke into the realms of success they deserved.

The first Heaven 17 album didn't get the recognition it deserved:

Can't decide between The The, Johnny Marr and Sinead O'Connor, so here's them all bringing me to shivers.
