Hey how many of you remember a 80s pop show starring Jenny Powell among others. It played a great mix of rock,US Hits and chart music and I have collected together the best of that time in a special YouTube Playlist. There's a few I have left off because I hate them or they were boring even then but I will add back in suggestions If I have missed anything good. Also not every song No Limits played had a video and I tried to stick to official videos as much as possible. Anyway lets relive the 80s!! www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfX9VEevrBKw-zQVTAPlihRHmwTPdbTXh |

Not actually linked on the above, but it made me go searching for a song I heard on No Limits far too many years ago, but never heard since and had been looking for and finally found!! Not relevent to this thread, but I thought I'd share it anyway...  |

That's a pretty mixed bag of brilliant across to dreadful that you've selected, and great fun as a result.
Before clicking on the link, I was wondering whether you'd included Wang Chung, and you have. Hurrah.
One single I bought as a result of it being featured on No Limits (I think) was Boys Don't Cry "I Wanna Be A Cowboy".

Ive added another 20 or so now its tough, the few I still need to add don't have videos might add them just for completeness eventually. Missing a few biggies from Dep Leppard and Prince and some obscure hair rock |

I remember some of these far too well!
I bought Tracy Spencer "Run To Me" at the time, but thought it was after a TV-AM appearance rather than No Limits.
Wasn't Lisa Maxwell one of the presenters as well at one stage?

Quick revival of this thread, I have fixed missing videos and added another twenty or so from acts that didnt use YouTube before like Def Leppard and ACDC.

Two video's that I remember from that time, which I may have seen for the first time on No Limits were:-
King Trigger - "The River" The Redskins - "Bring It Down"
Although as I'm typing this I've just realised that they may actually have been on Max Headroom instead.....but yes I remember No Limits. Wasn't there an American part of the show where Jonathan King reported on the Billboard charts? |

They changed the format slightly but yes it did include chart news from UK and US, it was my favourite ever music show and I am sad that JK has tainted it forever. Will check those songs just in case thanks
