ahm onna MexicLN ray-dee-oh.  This was pretty much "Rock of the '80s" Greatest Hits today.

This set is sounding more like MTV circa 1983 than '82.

It looks like 4 of the songs were chart hits in '83... 

2013-06-10 - MONDAY!! The year we met E.T., 1982
 1. A Flock Of Seagulls - I Ran (So Far Away)
 2. Dexys Midnight Runners - Come On Eileen [1983]
 3. Robert Plant - Pledge Pin
 4. Prince - Little Red Corvette [1983]
(Commercial: Ford Mustang convertible)
 5. Billy Idol - Hot In The City
 6. Eddy Grant - Electric Avenue [1983]
(News: Reporter asks Reagan "Are you better off than you were four years ago?")
 7. The Fixx - Stand Or Fall
 8. Roxy Music - Avalon (BOS)
 9. Wall Of Voodoo - Mexican Radio [1983]
(Movie: E.T. The Extra-Terrestial)
10. Talk Talk - Talk Talk
