HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS - HEART AND SOUL (Lost Hit)

Hello and welcome back.....From the 1983 album 'Sports' came this stunning single called 'Heart and Soul'.

It made it to No8 on the U.S music charts and No1 on the 'Top Tracks' charts also in the U.S

In the U.K it made it to No 61 (Seriously?) and No 25 in Australia.

The guitar sounds are divine... For me its a 'How a 80s sound should be'....I love it, turn it up loud :) and remember the 80s with me....

DAVID AND DAVID - WELCOME TO THE BOOMTOWN  (Thanks to exDrBob1 for the video)



LYRICS

Miss Cristina drives a 944
Satisfaction oozes from her pores
She keeps rings on her fingers
Marble on her floor
Cocaine in her dresser
Bars on her doors

She keeps her back
Against the wall
She keeps her back
Against the wall

[CHORUS]
So I say, I say welcome
Welcome to the boomtown
Pick a habit, we got
Plenty to go around
Welcome
Welcome to the boomtown
All that money makes
Such a succulent sound
Welcome to the boomtown

Handsome Kevin
Got a little off track
Took a year off from college
And he never went back
Now he smokes much too much
Got a permanent hack

Deals dope out of Denny's
Keeps a table in the back
He always listens to low ground
Always listens to low ground

[Repeat CHORUS]

Well, the ambulance arrived too late
I guess she didn't want to wait

[Repeat CHORUS]

Welcome to the boomtown
Welcome to the boomtown


SORRY - Couldn't go past this...

SAMANTHA FOX - TOUCH ME (Lost Hit)

Hello and welcome back....Possibly one of the biggest pinup girls of the 80s.
Just about every teenage boy (and maybe girl) had 'Samantha Fox' on their bedroom wall (I know I did).

1986 seen 'Samantha Fox' hit new highs as her single 'Touch Me (I want your Body)'  was released, reaching No1 in the music charts in 17 country's around the world inc U.S (4) & U.K (3)
Samantha has now sold over 30 million copies of this single alone.

At the age of 16 she was a page 3 pinup girl in U.K Newspaper 'The Sun', funnily enough if that was to happen today, all hell would break out in this politically correct world.....

Such an Awesome song.... Enjoy

SEALS & CROFTS - SUMMER BREEZE (Lost Hit)

Hello and welcome back..... A bit outside the 80s, but its such a good song....really makes you feel good.

Released in 1972, the song 'Summer Breeze' by American band 'Seals & Crofts' made it to No6 in the U.S music charts.

After watching tonight's news with all the murders, stabbings and violence in the world, I really feel compelled to want to go back to a time when it seemed 'Easy Going & Peaceful' .... sure there was still crap going on in the world but not to the extent to whats going on today.
At least there is this song to lift my spirits and take me to a nicer place for 3mins or so... Join Me.

SEALS & CROFTS - SUMMER BREEZE  (Big thanks to JCVdude for this video)
