Welcome back to I Completed 80s Music, the show that's like a neon spandex jumpsuit for your ears. I'm your host, the one and only 80s Mixtaper. Hold on to your leg warmers, folks, because we're diving into the last crumbs of the last chart of 1979. In Playlist Three, we gear up for all the shiny new entries from the next playlist onwards.
Join me as I recount my audacious mission to listen to every single UK chart entry from 31st December 1979 to 31st December 1989. Thousands of singles later, this podcast is your treasure map to the most dazzling gems and quirkiest nuggets of that fabulous decade. We're talking first singles, big hitters, breakups, scandals, and juicy facts galore.
In this episode, we revisit the top 75 of December 31st, 1979, with tunes that closed out the 70s. We start with Billy Preston and Syretta's emotional ballad "With You I'm Born Again," then get punky with The Skids' "Working for the Yankee Dollar." Next, we skank along to Madness' "One Step Beyond" and boogie down with Chic's "My Feet Keep Dancing."
We also explore the heartfelt "Please Don't Go" by KC and the Sunshine Band, and dive deep into Blondie's "Union Blue," inspired by Debbie Harry's adventures in the 1980 film Union City. Finally, we wrap up with the disco dynamite of Rose Royce's "Is It Love You're After," the track that inspired S-Express's hit "Theme from S-Express."
