Now there is a song I wasn't expecting to hear when I got up this morning . Sadly , I remember this track being popular on American radio . Styx go all techno . God help us .

[Dingus]

That Then Jericho track is particulaly upsetting . They were like a low budget version of U2 designed to be bought from Poundstretcher by the mentally deficient .

Not at all 80s or cheesetastic, but I much prefer Polysics' re-imagining of Mr Roboto which improves it by doing away with everything from the original except for that fantastic intro:

You have all these posts, and no one mentioned any Wham record.Not worth mentioning anyone as they all made me sick to the pit of my stomach.I hated them. Anyone for 99 red balloons by Nena?

[Dingus]

Yes Nena ! When it comes to genuinely cheesy 80's pop , no one can do it like the Europeans :

[Dingus]

When it comes to complete crap with a deeply disturbing undertone though , the British still lead the World :

Depends how you define cheese. Some of my friends call Bon jovi cheese.

I guess for total 80s style you need Peter Gabriel sledgehammer. Awesome song but some call it cheese

I'm sure I've chucked this into another thread a while back but I still like the bassline if little else...

I just really enjoyed listening to this track again , but like a lot of the other nominations , it's [i]way[/i] too good a record to be considered cheese . This track wouldn't be out of place in a thread about hippest music of the 80's . Nice to hear it again whatever , though .

This is the kind of crap which bombarded you wherever you went in the 1980's :

Ah , now this is an interestinig one . The guy with the dreadlocks is now superstar DJ Jeremy Healy , and this seemingly trite pop record had a deeply subversive subtext . The lyric was inspired by the book Hollywood Babylon and its' description of John Wayne and his legendary and somewhat taboo sexual preferences . By the time the BBC found out it was way too late . They had already performed on TOTP complete with illustrative dance moves . A wolf in cheesy clothing .
