Now That's What I Call Stuart's Favourite Music 3 - Don't Tell Me (Blancmange)

This song pretty much sums up the 80's for me.  A melody that is happy, and cheerful that you can sing and dance along to.

Blancmange was a synthpop group that had a number of hits during the 80s.  This one may not be their most well-known, (most people may recognise their "Living on the Ceiling" from a Berocca advert from 10 years ago), but this is my favourite of theirs.

Released back in 1984 as a single from their album Mange Tout, Don't Tell Me stayed in the UK Singles charts for 10 weeks where it reached number 8.

Ahhhh...  1984....

GhostBusters was the biggest movie of the year (followed by Beverly Hills Cop, and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom).  Frankie Goes To Hollywood and Relax reaches number one and stays in the UK charts for 42 weeks.  Jet Set Willy is released on most 8bit computers.

Ahh... the memories!
