All I Need Is Everything is more a hidden gem, wasn't even a big hit at the time. |

The 80s were a really shitty time in the country, yet Britain produce the best music. 80s British music is the best, way ahead of anything out of America.
Icicle Works - Love Is A Wonderful Colour Fiction Factory - Feels Like Heaven Howard Jones - Hide and Seek Wah - Come Back Wylie - Sinful New Musik - Living By Numbers Random Hold - Avalanche Squares - Airebeat (doubt anyone out of Yorkshire would know this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESOabuupG-A damn I just saw it's 1979, oh well, nearly) Coldcut - Doctorin The House was great in the late 80s. Loads of great Scottish bands as well like Big Dish and Love and Money. |

Two songs that weren't hits and aren't heard very often
Jesse Rae - "Over the sea" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOad0FU9zF8 (Are those the Twin towers of New York at 1:18 in the video?) Sal Solo "Music and You" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpB6_VncifY Both 1985 I think. |

She was such a great singer, I don't know why she did the beehive gimmick because it took focus away from what a great singer she was. Wonder whatever happened to her?

The word 'forgotten' is clearly confusing some posters.
