I Love 1981
Music

MTV went on the air, men wore make-up, and Joe Dolce made Clive Dunn's hit Grandad look like a work of major genius.

Kid Jensen Top of the Pops
Listen to some of the Number One hits from 1981, from John Lennon to Shakin' Stevens.

Bucks Fizz Bucks Fizz and Joe Dolce
All the evidence you need to convict Eurovision judges (and the British public) of crimes against music.

Adam AntNew Romantics
Okay boys. Dress like a girl, strike a silly pose, and make sure you don't look like you�re enjoying yourself.
