I was only ten when this was new and I disliked most of the music but, it's the fact that it takes me back to such good years of my life that makes me happy
I was 18 at the time. This makes me think about how real music was then, not dubbed or remixed. And you wouldn't have a single with 5 different mixes of the same song! Love this thanks for posting :)
Yep def around Oct/Nov 1985. The number 1 song of Chrissie Hynde with UB40 was filmed at Live Aid in July of 1985. Jennifer Rush's Power of love was either on the way out or up to number 1. This must have been very close to A-ha's Take on Me release.
somewhere between 20-sept and 25-oct 1985, the song i got you babe was #1 in NZ for those 5 weeks

I remember every single one of these songs, and I was just a little kid. Most songs in todays top 20 will be forgotten in a couple of months.

This was the best lineup in the history of um...everything! Compare these epic tunes to the garbage on the charts today!
