ELECTRIC 80'S

(The Decade of Decadence!!!)

OK...now to celebrate the decade that some say style forgot!!Where men wore more make up than the average Boots counter could stock,and the women wore shoulder pads that wouldn't look out of place on an American football field!!Hair was BIG, perms were BAD. Tizwas was axed (we're still trying to come to terms with that!),and Zammo forgot to say "No" in Grange Hill. Also the decade that channel 4 and Eastenders was born-for better or worse, you decide!..lol
There was in our opinion lots of good music amoung the bad, so, for this reason in this round you get to choose a Brit 80's hit. Song must have been released between 1980-1989 and be by a British act. AND........as men were girly and girls were manly, this round is GENDER BENDER!!!(Men to sing a female track, women to sing a male track)
So boys, don your lip gloss and girls use that whole can of Silverkrin hairspray,and go find a song to record!!!

Usual rules apply...any pre-records used must beless than 1 month old at the time of posting as an entry.This round will finish on Sunday 12th October at 7pm UK time.


GOOD LUCK ALL :o)

remember, use a british act that was in the british charts...thanx
