Thanks all.... My attempts came out rather similar to that compilation, with a little off shoot into Style Council teritory.

Can I be cheeky and ask what you put on it?

I'm having a nostalgic hour on You Tube now!

Never finalised a track list, but kept thinking along the lines of Smiths, Cure, Mission, Cult, JAMC, Sisters, Zodiac Mindwarp, various incarnations of Julian Cope, the entire Sarah Records back catalogue, Suzanne Vega .... With a wee bit of Billy Bragg, Redskins & Mr. Weller.

That was my '80's sort of.... But probably not representative ?

How far does your interest in Australian music go?

The Church - Under the Milky Way, Almost With You, Unguarded Moment.

INXS - Never Tear Us Apart, The Loved One, etc.

The Angels - Will I Ever See Your Face Again?

Australian Crawl - Boys Light Up, Reckless.

Hunters and Collectors - The Slab, Say Goodbye, Throw Your Arms Around Me, etc.

Cold Chisel/Jimmy Barnes - Khe Sanh (although that was 78), Flame Trees, etc.

Big Pig - Breakaway (from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure soundtrack).

There are many more, but I'll stop boring everyone there.

Big Country - Fields of Fire

Waterboys - Whole of the Moon

Then Jericho - Big Area

All About Eve - Martha's Harbour / Every Angel

The Mission - Tower of Strength

Blancmange - Don't Tell Me

Thompson Twins - Doctor Doctor, or You Take Me Up

Kane Gang - Closest Thing to Heaven

Reflex - Politics of Dancing

OMD - Locomotion

China Crisis - Black man Ray/ Lotus Eaters - Last Picture of You / Men Without Hats-The Saftey Dance / The Mighty Wah - Story of the blues / OMD - Enola Gay / New Order- Confusion / Teardrop Explodes- Reward / Lloyd Cole- Lost Weekend / Visage- We fade to Grey / Eurythmics- Sweet Dreams / The Cure- The Walk Lamont / David Bowie- Heros / Human League- Don't You Want Me / The Bible - Crystal Palace / The Violet Femmes- Blister in the Sun / U2-Pride ( in the name of love )/ Depeche Mode - Shake the Disease/ Blondie- Heart of Glass...............

I still have my black lace fingerless gloves, pixie boots and jumper dress ?

I'd forgotten about a load of these.

Guy in the bar wants some CDs for his missus' B'day.

For some reason they always ask me...

I absolutely love that song!

Bloody hell, I've enjoyed putting these together.

Gone of on a bit of a Marillion tangent at the moment though... Possibly not wise.
