As you all know, I have a penchant for 1980s New Wave music, especially dance music. And it's been ages since I shared some of my favorite '80s tracks. So here goes. (You're welcome.)
Earlier this week I wrote about fashion, which reminded me of the classic David Bowie song "Fashion."
Brings back memories, it does. (David Bowie's Serious Moonlight concert, to promote his album Let's Dance, was one of the best concerts I ever attended. And yes, I know, "Fashion" was on his Scary Monsters album, but he sang it at MSG.)
Next up, "Turning Japanese," sung by The Vapors. Politically incorrect, I know. But it's got a good beat and I can dance to it.
Speaking of not drinking or smoking... I give you Adam Ant's "Goody Two Shoes."
(I cannot get my brain around the fact that Adam Ant will be 60 -- 60! -- in November. Shudder.)
Another great 1980's dance track was (and is) "Don't Go" from Yazoo, or Yaz.
I am equally fond of their song "Situation."

Too many to count, but here's one the linked site missed.
Thank you for correcting a serious omission, @Dave S.! (How could she leave out Blancmange - "Living on the Ceiling"?! How could I have? I'm so small, I'm so small....)
