Roxette were pretty great. Though Simon Mayo has never forgiven them for being the most awkward/dinisnterested interviewees he ever had. That matters less than the quality tracks though

Church of your Heart by Roxette. Came up in my YouTube recommended, awesome.

Wow, I'm about 4 tracks in and still listening...

They actually make that style of music work for me...

I’d never heard that. Love that it sounds like it’s unapologetically taking the 80s sound beyond the confines of the decade. I noticed a little sound effect in there that I think may have been pinched or sampled by Basement Jaxx later

'Manscape' by Wire. Just listened to it again after a few years. It's typically cynical if you know their stuff, full of oblique references mostly to greed, power, organised society, corruption, etc. I think they were partly inspired by the fall of the Berlin Wall and collapse of communism in some countries. Too many pertinent lines to mention - "the silent ones waiting for decisions" is one in particular though. Sat there listening to it close to tears. How far our society has fallen, especially in recent times.

I always listen to The Cure around Christmas time in particular, mostly to protect myself from all of the saccharine drenched drivel that pervades at that time of year. The first line of that album, oh boy!

Nice! 

Wham!

The Always On My Mind / In My House mix from Introspective is a killer PSB track!

That's the sort of song my Dad would have liked!

Try this then - it's a hauntingly beautiful reworking of 'Walking In The Air' titled Goodbye My Love.

Or this, a fun cover of the Bee Gees hit I.O.I.O.

https://youtu.be/zwv9FQXXtcg Harrowing stuff - a song about the events in the movie Jaws. Not for the faint hearted 

I like that. Got very mesmerised by the whole vibe. 

Jolene will always be my favourite Dolly song - it's so touching and her vocals are dreamy too.

Pet Shop Boys,

were they those who couldn't put pants  on the right way?

I was born in 1980 and have a huge taste in genres, this is due to two reasons:

1. I grew up with a father who loved collecting records from all over the world.

2. My sister was literally obsessed with 80s, Queen, A-Ha, Pet Shop Boys, New Order etc.

This has been on frequent play for me for a while now - it's called Irreplaceable by Taiwanese girl-group S.H.E, and it's one of their most beautiful tracks too.

The beauty of music is that it's universal - even if you don't understand the language, it can still be exciting.
