It's been a while since I did one of these. Here are (most of) the singles mentioned. Regular readers will know 1981 is a little before my time, music-wise, which is why many of these are fairly unfamiliar to me.
The Passions - Skin Deep
Visage - Visage
Original Mirrors - 20,000 Dreamers
Virgin Prunes - Moments and Mine
Jimmy Pursey - Animals Have More Fun
Bette Bright - When You Were Mine
Any Trouble - The Trouble With Love
Troy Tate - Thomas
The Freshies - I Can't Get "Bouncing Babies" By The Teardrop Explodes
The Associates - Q Quarters
Split Enz - One Step Ahead
Icehouse - We Can Get Together
And here's a bonus B-Side that got a mention:
The Freshies - Tell Her I'm Ill
Have a good weekend, everybody!!
