It would appear that "Kajagoogoo - Too Shy" was number 1 when I was born. Since I haven't got a clue who the f*ck they are or what the f*ck that song is, I presume that Kajagoogoo didn't write any classics. Evidentely I happened to be born at exactly the wrong time - virtually everything else that year went on to become classic songs which are still regularly played today.

Gavin, this is one of those threads where you and I feel old.
Kajagoogoo's "Too Shy" IS an 80s classic!
Nick, is there not a website with the top selling wax cylinders of the day on it?

I feel the older generation members feelings have not been taken into account when opening this thread.
