Title: 18 May 2010: it's... 1984
Post by: RGMike on May 17, 2010, 06:55:13 PM: "The year of The Karate Kid" sez AL on FB. Vote early and often for Dan Hartman, "I Can Dream About You"!

Post by: Gazoo on May 17, 2010, 10:37:54 PM: Survivor's "Moment of Truth" would blow my mind.

1984 was, I'd argue, the best year of the decade for popular music. Hoping for a cheery set - Ollie & Jerry, Culture Club, Shannon, Kc, y'know?

Any of those would please me; but we're up against some lameass Fogheads making requests too so I'll be gobsmacked if we get one of 'em.
