Now That's What I Call Music 1-100 - The Badger Remix - Now 61 (Deadline 14/2)
-
It’s got to be either 99 Red Balloons or Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, for me. Both stone cold classics. I’m going to go with Cyndi, because frankly I’ve wanted to go with Cyndi as long as I can remember. -
Is Moon Light Shadow a cover of the Cat Stevens song?
Anyhows Cyndi Lauper was the first album I ever bought but Moot has informed me that she has a belter coming up on Now 3 so this is between Modern Love by Bowie or Only You by the Flying Picketts. I'm going for Bowie as it's still a song that I can listen to now. Only you reminds me of Christmas for some reason.Live, PSN & WiiU: Yippeekiyey -

Frig it I'm going on Spotify now. I can feel an 80s FNF playlist coming on.GT: WEBBIN5 - A life in formats: Sinclair ZX81>Amstrad CPC 6128>Amiga 500>Sega Megadrive>PC>PlayStation 2>Xbox>DS Lite>Xbox 360>Xbox One>Xbox One X>Xbox Series X>Oculus Quest 2

I understand what you’re all doing, and agree that Time After Time is the quintessential Cyndi song, but in the spirit of pure pop music I’m living in the moment. It’s the best track in front of me right now.

Yeah one track per artist is silly. -
I'd go for that as well. Not so many standouts on that one though I reckon.g.man wrote:Good few bangers there, but the only sensible answer is 99 Red Balloons. -
It's the impossible task trying to pick one. It's banger central, would be easier to omit your least liked and keep the rest.GT: WEBBIN5 - A life in formats: Sinclair ZX81>Amstrad CPC 6128>Amiga 500>Sega Megadrive>PC>PlayStation 2>Xbox>DS Lite>Xbox 360>Xbox One>Xbox One X>Xbox Series X>Oculus Quest 2

Lauper for me.Holding the wrong end of the stick since 2009. -

No limit on this playlist. Just too many variables to make it work.

Apologies, had a busy day yesterday. Will try and get through two or three today to get things moving.
So, Lauper just takes it over Nena. My choice was a close one between Nik Kershaw and Cyndi but the pure zanyness of the multi-coloured haired one just pegs it for me. A certified pop banger.rateyourmusic: https://rateyourmusic.com/~Olimite -

Time after Time by a distance -
This is like trying to pick a favourite child.
(It's the cat, BTW.)rateyourmusic: https://rateyourmusic.com/~Olimite -
This is the one we had at home when I was a kid, so I'm much more familiar with it and have a soft spot for a lot of the songs.
But it's also the one where I have a clear favourite that I'd love to be chosen, even though I'm fairly sure it has no chance.

White Lines (Don't Do It)
It's high on my shortlist.

Just listening to this now. It's a very strong one.
Two Tribes, Time after Time, It's Raining Men for a cheesy disco fix, bit of Bob Marley, Tina Turner. I even quite like the Queen song. Top stuff. -
Actually, Freeeeeeeee Nelson Mandela is missing from the Spotify version.
That's another good un. -
Time after time or Bronskiiiiii
-
THIS IS THE HARDEST THING I HAVE EVER HAD TO DO.
Would have said Cyndi but she's aced the Now 2 pick. I'm going Smalltown Boy, that tune eats at the top table at my banger banquet.GT: WEBBIN5 - A life in formats: Sinclair ZX81>Amstrad CPC 6128>Amiga 500>Sega Megadrive>PC>PlayStation 2>Xbox>DS Lite>Xbox 360>Xbox One>Xbox One X>Xbox Series X>Oculus Quest 2 -

I think I am going to like the start of yours. Later is when it gets interesting....

Nobody’s voted for Young At Heart yet? Wow.
I’m not voting for it either. White Lines just edges out The Reflex, for me.
Howdy, Stranger!
