The 1980s were full of colour everywhere
New romantics and perm rockers with big hair
Being dropped off at school in my dads xr3
Ub40 and madness on top of the pops on the tv
Record the charts off the radio every Sunday
To play on my Walkman walking to school on Monday
Brightly coloured clothes,t shirts saying relax
Now that's what I call music 1 combining the latest tracks
All the lads in high school wearing a big vw pendant
Acid house and rave music made me feel transcendent

Do you remember. The Beatles on vinyl. Stepping out of the bath. Slipping on lynel. Do you remember. The wooden tops. Sitting down with your mum. Watching top of the pops. Do you remember.
