I still remember the day my mum brought home the Belinda Carlisle Greatest Hits album on cassette. So much plastic and all that dark brown ribbon inside gave so much joy to a 6 year old boy, who tired of the 60s and 70s albums constantly blasted through the stone walls of his croft house. I didn't have music channels (it was 1993 and I was on an island) and I didn't really listen to radio, so I was completely musically ignorant. It's funny, how one song can bring you back to a specific moment in your past. The below song takes me right back to my kitchen, dancing about and singing with a broom handle, that towered about 2-3 ft above me. I was so talented. May I add, I was wearing a blue and green Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle sweater and matching trackies at the time. This is my song of the 80s.
