    Elton John! :cool:

    I'm still a sucker for:

    Men at work - Land down under
    Kaoma - Lambada
    Tracey Chapman - Fast car
    Tina Turner - Simply the best
    Genesis - Jesus he knows me

    My sister always used to really love Rick Astley's 'Never gonna give you up'. Never one of my top favourites though..!

    I like them, but better: Eternal flame or Walking like the Egyptian
    Eternal flame was good too but Walking like the Egyptian I never really liked. Manic Monday tops my Bangles chart!
