Typical! Had this all ready to post last night, and the dam' box decides to cough and splutter at the most inopportune time...oh well...
1. Can't Fight This Feeling - REO Speedwagon 4
Good typical slice of AOR, very nice...
2. One More Night - Phil Collins 4
Drippy and maudlin, and none the worse for that...quite good...
3. Miami Vice Theme (Instrumental) - Jan Hammer 2
Despite its undoubted popularity, I never got into MV...and this was somewhat tiresome...
4. Valotte - Julian Lennon 3
Okay piece of work, not as good as 'Too Late For Goodbyes'...
5. Sentimental Street - Night Ranger ?
6. Loverboy - Billy Ocean 2
Bill 'rocks out'...but still sounds awkward...
7. Would I Lie To You -Eurythmics 3
...as do this pair, but better than some of their efforts...
8. Born In The U.S.A. - Bruce Springsteen 2
Still grates on me due to some clown I used to work with slapping it on the pub jukebox at any given opportunity! Typical Broooce fare for all that...
9. Never Surrender - Corey Hart ?
10. Axel F (Instrumental) - Harold Faltermeyer 4
Big dancefloor fave...still sounds quite good...
11. Freedom - Wham! 4
Attractive bit of fluff with 60's overtones, good effort...
12. In My House - Mary Jane Girls ?
Vaguely remember it, but not enough to rate...
13. Perfect Way - Scritti Politti 4
Superb track which inexplicably did hardly anything here...
14. Method Of Modern Love - Hall & Oates 3
Good at the time, but hasn't dated well...
15. Party All The Time - Eddie Murphy ?
See comments as per #12.
16. Oh Sheila - Ready For The World 1
Oh Karen...put it away! Horrible...
17. We Built This City - Starship 4
Like Katrina (see previous list), a song which hardly anyone likes but me! Possibly their last worthy effort...
18. Everytime You Go Away - Paul Young 3
Fine singer who cleverly pinched Daryl Hall's song and made it his own...but does get a bit tiresome after a while...
19. You Belong To The City - Glenn Frey 4
Better effort from Glenn and MV in general, but then someone told Don Johnson to sing...!
20. Saving All My Love For You - Whitney Houston 2
The voice, songs and arrangements are altogether faultless, but there's something about Whitney that screams 'Bland!' at me...this was no exception...
21. The Search Is Over - Survivor 4
Proof that they did more than songs for certain Stallone movies! A fine 'power ballad'...
22. All She Wants To Do Is Dance - Don Henley 3
See comments as per #14.
23. Fortress Around Your Heart - Sting 4
Excellent solo effort from the man...ranks along his best...
24. Election Day - Arcadia 3
Three-fifths of Duran still managing to sound like Duran...does have its moments...
25. Neutron Dance - Pointer Sisters 3
Frantic belter from the sibs...have done better...

Quoting:
16. Oh Sheila - Ready For The World 1
Oh Karen...put it away! Horrible...
End Quote
Oh geez, would you believe that that song made it to #1 in the U.S.? :o I just don't understand....

In a remarkable show of good taste, it barely scraped into our Top 50...but sadly I do remember it from my 'clubbing' days (where discos thought it was a cracking record!) and also from continental Europe-based radio stations, who used to play it to death...(huge in Germany for some reason...)
Never mind, Karen...you can't win 'em all!
