Right, time to brainstorm! every time i select a song it's always quite obscure and doesn't go down to well, so it needs to be something iconically 80's. I have a fair few ideas, but i'll post them up when we're closer to the competition, i fear ideas could be pinched, i'm determined to win this time  |

I'm pretty 90% of the music of the 80's can be summed up as a jumble of electronic drum pad sounds, fuzzy synthesisers and glassy guitar tones.

I triple bagsy "The Final Countdown" on behalf of Hamland. Haha.
The 80s was only good for 1 thing: mullets.
