I have to say there are few songs on your list I'm not familiar with. Johnny, not Jamez that is!!!
The Talking Heads track I didn't know until the other day when it was on the '100 Greatest Videos' show. I still prefer 'Psycho Killer' anyway. ;) Fa-fa-fa-fa-f-f-f-f-f-faaa better. ;) The Message! Great track, but every version I've downloaded seems to be cut off at the end.

I've just made a compilation called 'Songs from under the dancefloor' and have based the sleeve design on the old NOW albums from the 80's...

They're not all my favourite tracks, but are ones reminiscent of the era.

MMM.. some interesting choices so far & quite a few old skool dance tuens I haven't hear before (Although know alot of the artists)

I have added some more to the above list, I know alot are late 80's early 90's but hey-ho not very impressed with alot of today's music (although there are some good groups around)
