My new mixtape, again all taken from the 12" singles:

CLUB ALTERNATIVES - 1981

Spandau Ballet - Chant No.1 (I Don't Need This Pressure On)
Heaven 17 - Penthouse And Pavement
Duran Duran - Planet Earth (Night Version)
Lene Lovich - New Toy (Extended Version)
The Human League - The Sound Of The Crowd (Complete)
Depeche Mode - New Life (Remix)
A Flock Of Seagulls - Telecommunication
U2 - I Will Follow
The Cure - Primary

The Pretenders - Message Of Love
Go-Go's - Our Lips Our Sealed

Yoko Ono - Walking On Thin Ice
Kraftwerk - Numbers/Computer World
The Clash - The Magnificent Seven
The Police - Voices Inside My Head
Grace Jones - Pull Up To The Bumper (Party Version)
Blondie - Rapture (Special Disco Mix)


I guess 1982 was the height of my MTV addict phase because I don't recall so much the other years, not like that one. I still love Tainted Love by Soft Cell. That and Rockin' the Casbah, Don't You Want Me, Look of Love, Never Say Never and White Wedding were some of the best songs from that year. Or the 80s for that matter.


The songs on my comps were just the dance hits. I'm sure there are new wave songs from other years that didn't make it to the dance chart that you would know.
