Top show tonight. Final SOTN verdict: 🥇Nik Kershaw 🥈Split Enz🥉ABC. Honourable mentions to Bon Jovi, China Crisis, Hooters, LAs. Night all #forgotten80s
2 out of 2 for EOH #forgotten80s
Top start to EOH. So many associate the Hooters only with Satellite #forgotten80s
Hugely underrated track from ABC #forgotten80s
Another banger with the always-superb Nik Kershaw #forgotten80s
Split Enz take the SOTN lead #forgotten80s
China Crisis on the SOTN pile #forgotten80s
Early SOTN candidate from Bon Jovi. Probably my favourite track off Slippery When Wet #forgotten80s
Evening Blueskyers. My team's just won 3-0 and #forgotten80s has begun. Life's good for the next two hours
Didn't see that result coming. Our 6th games of the season, Villa's third and we still stuff them. Now let's see what tomorrow brings #cpfc
Only eight subs named out of 12. Two goalkeepers, two kids, two full backs and one attacker clearly not trusted by the manager. There needs to be some signings before Monday #cpfc
Well we got through but fuck me that was dire. No idea how to get past a team who were organised but limited and whose only attacking weapon was one bloke throwing the ball a long way #cpfc
Funny how United have been knocked out of a competition before Palace have even entered it. How times change
Last act to win Eurovision for the UK?
Don't know the song but Mark Hollis' vocals unmistakable #forgotten80s
Bry's near misses were often better than the ones that charted. This Time being one such example #forgotten80s
Flock of Seagulls leading SOTN with a song about a Middle East country 😉 #forgotten80s
Glad to hear you're better now
Nice result for your boys yesterday
I remember nominating Glamour Boys for DWAHIA many years back. Kudos to whoever requested it for tonight #forgotten80s
Always great to have an EOH special and even better to have an extra hour #forgotten80s
Well we won on the night, so that's a plus. But our squad has all the depth of a puddle,witnessed by Édouard being the only sub used. #cpfc
Night all. SOTN 🥇A-ha🥈Bruce Springsteen 🥉Duran Duran. Honourable mentions to Swing Out Sister, Baltimora and King. See you back here next week for the EOH special #forgotten80s
This Swing Out Sister track would surely be approved by the absent @runcorn.bsky.social #forgotten80s
Cry Wolf is SOTN unless something incredible happens #forgotten80s
Europop at its finest from Baltimora #forgotten80s
King getting the second hour off to a great start #forgotten80s
Two SOTN contenders in a row. All DD's stuff post Arcadia/Power Station split underplayed and underrated #forgotten80s
Brucie with a banger. Clear SOTN leader so far #forgotten80s
Evening all, time for some #forgotten80s gems. Enjoy :)
I'm referring to last year's mayoral election of course
Let it never be forgotten that the Britain First candidate got fewer votes than @countbinface.bsky.social, prompting them to storm off stage in a hissy fit
Don't You Want Me by the Human League
Fuck off UEFA and CAS. Stick your Conference League where the sun doesn't shine
It should be a condition of any Guéhi transfer deal that a majority of the buying club's fanbase are able to say his name correctly #cpfc
Banger from one of my favourite albums of the entire decade #forgotten80s
SOTN contender from Gary and Phil #forgotten80s
Evening all. In a good mood after my team won at Wembley so hope it continues through the next two hours of #forgotten80s
Not exactly nowt (back up goalie and LB) but certainly a drop in the ocean compared with others. Now we have to wait for tomorrow's verdict on our appeal
SOTN verdict: 🥇Robert Palmer🥈Susan Fassbender🥉Nik Kershaw. Honourable mentions to: Billy Ocean, SAW, Mezzoforte, Prince, Madness, Level 42. If next week's show is half as good it'll still be a banger. Night all #forgotten80s
He really was The One And Only #forgotten80s
Nik Kershaw is never not a SOTN contender, even with tracks from his fallow period #forgotten80s
And another tune. Always welcome to hear something from the Purple One #forgotten80s
Another banger, this time from Mezzoforte. Best opening hour to #forgotten80s for some time
Bluesky goes into meltdown as our #forgotten80s anthem is played
Roadblock was infinitely better than most of the stuff that SAW were producing at the time #forgotten80s
This Billy Ocean track had a fairly offbeat video from what I remember. Great track though #forgotten80s
Evening all. Stonking start tonight with the much-missed Robert Palmer #forgotten80s
Scritti Politti another band who should have been far more successful than they were in reality #forgotten80s
Always remember Heartache getting reviewed by Mrs Thatcher on Saturday Superstore. She didn't like it too much IIRC #forgotten80s
Back to back bangers on #forgotten80s. First Squeeze now PSB in the SOTN mix
Volume up for South London legends Squeeze #forgotten80s
First SOTN contender this evening from the Human League #forgotten80s
Still buzzing after the Lionesses going back-2-back and now the good vibes will continue for another two hours with #forgotten80s
Night all. Three huge 80s acts take SOTN this week 🥇Duran Duran 🥈Billy Joel 🥉 Depeche Mode and plenty of other great tunes on top. Till next week #forgotten80s
Great start to EOH from Split Enz #forgotten80s
Anything from the legend that is Billy Joel will be up there for SOTN #forgotten80s
And this will be WSOTN unless Five Star get played #forgotten80s
Obviously a Gary Numan track but never heard this before. Your work is done @matthewjrudd.bsky.social 😉 #forgotten80s
Duran Duran take the SOTN lead. Big Thing was a very underrated album #forgotten80s
One from DM's most underrated period #forgotten80s
Ooh this one will divide people #forgotten80s
First SOTN contender from the Nanas #forgotten80s
Evening Blueskyers. Looking forward to the next two hours of #forgotten80s
SOTN for this special: 🥇Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers🥈Bryan Adams🥉Phil Collins. Have a good week everyone #forgotten80s
Well done, you called it #forgotten80s
Certainly no argument from me #forgotten80s
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers take the SOTN lead #forgotten80s
Hall & Oates far too underappreciated by the UK record-buying public #forgotten80s
Good to have the Cars on tonight as they had the song most associated with the whole event #forgotten80s
I assume this track was played at Wembley before Phil got on Concorde #forgotten80s
Evening all. Looking forward to this special #forgotten80s edition. Great start with Bry
SOTN verdict: 🥇George Michael🥈A-ha🥉Howard Jones honourable mentions to: Depeche Mode, Belinda Carlisle, Hipsway, Big Country, XTC. Night all, till next week's "something a little different" #forgotten80s
I think someone from Coventry will have this as SOTN #forgotten80s
Completely forgot what I requested. Is that why it's called #forgotten80s ? 🤣
Back-to-back bangers on #forgotten80s thanks to Hipsway
Superb start to the second hour from Belinda #forgotten80s
Preferred the single version to Train of Thought but it's still one of their most underrated tracks #forgotten80s
Forgotten George Michael track but still a US No.1 and an early SOTN nomination #forgotten80s
Evening all. Looking forward to the next two hours as always #forgotten80s
Eleven and a half years after my first, today I did my 400th #parkrun at my home event of Pole Mokotowskie
Night all. SOTN final verdict: 🥇Nik Kershaw 🥈U2🥉Tears for Fears. Honourable mentions to: Godley & Creme, Prince, Belouis Some, Roachford, Housemartins. Till next week #forgotten80s
As a Sagittarian myself, that line always makes me smile #forgotten80s
Belouis Some in Not a One-hit Wonder shock! #forgotten80s
Superb from Godley and Creme #forgotten80s
Third SOTN contender from the ever-superb TFF #forgotten80s
Nik Kershaw twice in three weeks; absolutely no complaints from me. SOTN already looking competitive #forgotten80s
Evening all. SOTN contender right off the bat tonight with U2 #forgotten80s
Getting your mergers mixed up. First there was (or rather, wasn't) Thames Valley Royals between Oxford and Reading, then Fulham Park Rangers was mooted. Also there was a brief idea to merge Wimbledon and Palace which soon got shut down
SOTN final verdict: 🥇Swing Out Sister 🥈OMD 🥉Erasure. Night all, till next Sunday #forgotten80s
If anyone is wondering, Basia's surname is pronounced T-she-t-she-lev-ska. You're welcome #forgotten80s
80% chance Swing Out Sister will be SOTN #forgotten80s
Always good to hear some Erasure on #forgotten80s
OMD SOTN LEAD. Messages is one of their very best #forgotten80s
Kim and Junior in the SOTN reckoning #forgotten80s
First onto the SOTN pile tonight from Arcadia #forgotten80s
Evening Blueskyers. Hoping for another top show tonight on #forgotten80s
Did my 64th different #parkrun location today and 59th in 🇵🇱 at Rzeszów
Night all. SOTN verdict: 🥇Nik Kershaw 🥈Talk Talk🥉Madness. Honourable mentions to Nick Heyward, Bangles & Teardrop Explodes. Till next week #forgotten80s
