Heart of glass - 80's classics - English Spanish Translator Org: Translation Forum � Translators Forums

It's 11 pm and my shift is not over yet. Right now, I'm listening to some songs from the 80's (right now, it is Heart of glass, by Blondie) thanks to my cool workmate. The thing is that we've listened to all the classics we could think of... and we're running out of songs...

Could you please recommend some?

Any help? Anyone?

Following the line of 80's classics, I can think of this songs:

Men at Work - Land down under
Depeche mode - Enjoy the silence, stripped, anything counts
fine young cannibals - she drives me crazy
toto - africa, hold the line
Crowded House - don't dream it's over
Tears for fears - shout

I love 80's classics too, I want to read more suggestions!!!

Thank you so much, Ezequiel! I love Tears for fears' Shout.

I've just remembered a song I had completely forgotten: "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)", by Dead or Alive....

I totally forgot about it, which is weird because who could ever forget Pete Burns?????!!!!!!!

LOL!

"Purple Rain", "Delirious", "Little Red Corvette", "Raspberry Beret", "Kiss", "If I Was Your Girlfriend", "When Doves Cry", "Darling Nikki", "Let's Go Crazy", "Sign o' the Times", "I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man", "Adore"...I could go on.

Also, "Take On Me", "99 Luftballoons", and "The Way You Make Me Feel", just so that people don't start thinking I am obsessed or anything...

I found a couple more in my playlist:

A Flock of Seagulls - I Ran
Baltimora - tarzan boy
Bangles - walk like an egipcian
Tear for Fears - Everybody wants to rule the world
Thomas Dolby - She blinded me with science
INXS - Mistify
The Cure - I like almost every song, but if you don't know much of the band, start by listening to 'The head on the door" Album

I promise I'll be back with more!!! C'mon people, help me expand my playlist too!!!!
