1985 – my favourite 80s year for music! The only song I didn’t know was “Kiss Me”. I rather like it! I presume he was part of Tin Tin Out? (edit : okay nothing to do with Tin Tin Out lol)
03 Tears For Fears - Shout 07 Bruce Springsteen - Dancing In The Dark 06 Stephen "Tin Tin” Duffy - Kiss Me 06 Paul Young - Every Time You Go Away 10 DeBarge - Rhythm Of The Night 08 Phil Collins - One More Night 10 Kool & The Gang - Cherish 06 Billy Ocean - Suddenly 07 Dire Straits - Money For Nothing 06 Cars - Drive 04 Madonna – Gambler (her one and only awful 80s release) 09 Phil Collins & Marilyn Martin - Separate Lives

04 Madonna – Gambler (her one and only awful 80s release) No I think Causing A Commotion was worse than this one, and that also reached #4. I gave that song 4/10 compared to 5 for Gambler, and it finished 13th out of 18 in the poll with a score of 5.95

'Dress You Up' was not much of a Madonna Song, either. With 'Causing A Commotion' and 'Gambler'. I'd say they were the weakest 3 Madonna Singles of the 1980's...

Good top 2 but overall scores surprisingly low. Thought Debarge might have done better. Personally love the Paul Young track but it did quite badly. As always thanks to Smurfie for organising.
