Listening to early 80s synth pop...
Possibly the last great American genre until late-80s alternative and hip-hop (both of which started becomming commercial in the early 90s and as such unworthy.)

"Heart Attack", love it! :loveya:

1. Is that Olivia Newton-John?
I've got the tune in my head if it's the one I'm thinking of but I'm not sure who sings it.

I loved them, and the soundtrack to Xanadu rocks!

7. I thought you were talking about Yello
they had a great "Heart Attack" song

the refrain:

"I love you"

"I know."

"I love you"

"I know."

Ah, the 80's
