Billy Ocean – Showdown

Tucked away on the b-side of Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car is this total banger. Way better than the flip, which is still a good tune. Some of you will probably say that both of these are crap. It’s a shame you’re wrong.

The Police – Synchronicity II

This was playing in a trendy up-market men’s clothes shop I frequent the other day. I hadn’t heard it for years and had forgotten how great it is. Nothing more to say.

Tears For Fears – Watch Me Bleed

You probably know a load of tunes by these guys, they had several massive hits in the 80s although I was never so much a fan of the later ones (Shout, Sowing the Seeds etc.). Their first album, The Hurting, contains some killer tracks and is one of those rare pop records that’s actually worth a listen all the way through rather than heading straight for the singles. As well as Mad World, and the awesome Pale Shelter there are a few other wicked tracks on there including this one…
