Voted Johnny Hates Jazz because nobody else does, and because it's a great song.

I guess this poll will be a fight between Pet Shop Boys and M/A/R/R/S though.

This was the last Now tape I ever bought. It's the sound of the summer of school exams ("When Smokey Sings") and the start of 6th form college ("China in Your Hand").

Housemartins reprazent!

My 14 yr old self would totally have gone for Hue and Cry - and who am I to betray him?

Crazy Crazy Nights, for "if love is a radio, turn up to ten" :-)

When I suspected this would be between PSB and M/A/R/R/S, I overlooked the fact that it also contained a classic Christmas song.

seven years pass...

Then Play Long reaches the end of '87, the end of the 80s and the beginning of something new: http://nobilliards.blogspot.co.uk/2015/02/various-artists-now-thats-what-i-call.html

My Dad had this on cassette. 'Hey Matthew' has to be one of the oddest pop songs of the eighties.

oi listen mate, shut up (dog latin), Tuesday, 17 February 2015 16:25 (eleven years ago)

The music is clownish/eerie like "Hey Matthew" and Andy Bell's voice is as passionate and sharp as Moyet's would be

Yes, I remember this being an overall more creepy collection than Now 7 which was really quite jolly and was also owned by my Dad.

I see The A Team.
