delboy Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 i'm covering the 80's show for the next couple of weeks (10PM - 1AM Sunday night via www.q102.fm), looking for some suggestions for 80's songs especially cheese. stick with hits mind, nae point in suggesting early napalm death, it is corporate evil commercial radio remember!though when i've done it in the past i have veered towards making it del's alternative 80's show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundian Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Some Thomas Dolby, perhaps, not Hyperactive or She Blinded me with science, something like Europa or Cloudburst on Shingle Street Then some Howad Jones, just to get the corporate,commercial thing happening.

Guest DustyDeviada Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 How about Bird of Paradise by Snowy White? That's an 80s cheese-fest.i would add the caveat that I really hate the song, but it would seem to be appropriate for your needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stamina Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Cheese? Hmm...lemme see....Sly Fox - "Let's Go All The Way" (Hint Of Cheese)Brenda Russell - "Piano In The Dark" (Cheesey)Whitesnake - "Is This Love?" (Processed Cheese Slice)Jermaine Stewart - "We Don't Have To (Take Our Clothes Off)" (Very Cheesey)Fleetwood Mac - "Little Lies" (Cheese-tastic)Level 42 - "It's Over" (Smell that gorgonzola)Morris Minor & The Majors - "Stutter Rap" (Comedy Cheese)Rene & Renata - "Save Your Love" (Uber Cheese)and the parmesan topping....."The Birdie Song".Too much cheese before bedtime will give you nightmares....
