Hi Paul,

Yes, a brilliant player, and he did not want to take a penalty.

More seriously, there is a lot of great music from the 80s. What's the general consensus on Duran Duran and Tears for Fears?

Not a big fan, but Rio, The Hurting and Songs from the Big Chair are all good albums.

Yes, The Hurting is an especially good album. A young Tears for Fears were very good indeed.

Being a James Bond fan, I remember when Duran Duran did the theme for A View to a Kill.

That was quite a good song, and film come to think of it.

Driving to the Scarborough Congress and back, I played a lot of 80s music including Pet Shop Boys, Erasure and Eurythmics.
