I noticed

I was merely pointing out that it would appear to be a common error.

In fact I asked a number of people here who did the record - Air Supply or Cutting Cfrew, and all but 2 (out of 20) said it was Air Supply...

Funny how a band can get associated with a song they never released...

Tyler is from Swansea, Wales. This was the first record by a Welsh artist to top the US chart.
Shame on you Richard for not knowing this

Well I guess you're "all out of luck (sic)"

which brings me to the most stupid line in a song

"I'm sitting alone with my head on the phone" - doesn't that hurt?????

Well, Richard.

Cutting Crew did release "I just died in your arms tonight" (at least the 80s compilation CD I have credits them).

Last time I checked, Bonnie Tyler was a woman.. Although she does have a deep voice, so that's an easy mistake to make

Re: What is the best 80s song ever?

What's my favourite 80's song? Well, I like loads..

Anyone remember:
  • Rise to the Occasion by Climie Fisher (for that matter, anyone remember Climie Fisher)?
  • Rocking all over the world by Status Quo.
  • Whatever you want by Status Quo.
  • 19 by Paul Hardcastle (or anything by him)
  • Walk This Way by Run DMC and/or Aerosmith (I have both versions and like both).
  • Paid In Full (7 minutes of Madness - The Coldcut Remix) by Eric B and Rakim.
  • 1999 - Prince
  • I think we're alone now by Tiffany..
  • Holday, Into the Groove, Papa Don't Preach etc by Madonna
  • Thriller by Micheal Jackson.

OK, so I have crap music tastes..

Hell, yeah! Simon Clime and Rob Fisher. They also did 'Love Changes Everything' (nothing to do with Michael Ball...)

I loved them.

PS Madonnas best ever song is a toss up between Cherish and Borderline.

Just for OB: http://www.interlog.com/~dolphind/cfisher.html. Sadly, it seems Rob Fisher died in 1999.

And I agree about those two songs. I actually like most of Madonna's stuff (don't think much of the newer stuff though).
