Laura Branigan – Spanish Eddie
Who's for some Vick's and lemon gin?
Belinda Carlisle – Valentine (Remix Edit)
Oh my darling, look my way.
Claudia Brücken – Absolut[e]
Where do Brücken hearts go? The bargain bin, sadly.
Scarlet – Love Hangover
Not that Love Hangover. The other Love Hangover.
Boney M – No Woman No Cry
Conspicuous by their absence no longer, it's the one, the only (apart from the numerous versions appearing in a club near you) Boney M!
New Radicals – Mother We Just Can’t Get Enough
Pop: one of the few career choices where quitting early can actually do you a favour.
When in Rome – The Promise
In which we look at Pompous Pop and habitual doorway-leaners When in Rome.
Brandon Flowers – Lonely Town
My beautiful dark twisted fantasy of four top ten hits from a Brandon Flowers album.
Tasmin Archer – One More Good Night With the Boys
Never be the Next Big Thing.
Madonna – Keep it Together (Single Remix)
Do something else. Do my eyebrows.
ABBA – If it Wasn’t For the Nights
A fun discussion when ABBA fans get together is "what singles would YOU have chosen from 'Voulez Vous'?" Before you know it 37 years will have passed and no consensus will have been reached.
Buggles – Elstree
Or: How I Learned to Stop Fearing Martians and Love Synthesisers.
Kylie Minogue – Turn it Into Love
Fun fact! This was probably the song that started off the whole Into the Popvoid concept. I've been bitter about Turn it Into Love's non-single status for 28 years.
Debbie Gibson – Anything is Possible (Remix Edit)
In which bubbly pop princess Debbie Gibson attempts to grow up a bit and is roundly rejected because we are all TERRIBLE PEOPLE.
Red Box – Heart of the Sun
One of those bands that made you feel a bit clever for liking them, Red Box made a classic debut album which flopped terribly - and, as it turns out, quite unnecessarily. Thanks, record label types!
Kate Bush – Eat the Music
In which Kate Bush makes us all want to tuck into a bowl of Fruit 'n Fibre with our BARE HANDS.
Wang Chung – Everybody Have Fun Tonight
30 years may have passed, but I'm pretty certain I could say "everybody Wang Chung tonight" out loud and most people would know what I was talking about. Right?
Belle and Sebastian – I Didn’t See it Coming (Richard X Mix)
In which Belle and Sebastian turn into Dollar for four perfect minutes.
a-ha – Nothing is Keeping You Here
Not many bands really get better with age, but a-ha managed it.
Matt Bianco – Whose Side Are You On?
In which we ask the question: why did nobody admit to liking Matt Bianco at the time, when they were in fact dead good?
Deborah Harry – Sweet and Low
That peculiar time when Debbie Harry became Deborah for a bit, roped in PWL for a remix and very few people cared. Sigh.
