1982-83 tomorrow, doing some research tonight. roughly where i jump in knowledge wise - mostly countdown on a sunday night and sounds with donnie sutherland on saturday mornings. this wont quite make the shortlist but not far off it - killer chorus and the 1984 single release has a mighty film clip
