One of my 2026 favourites. Wonderful to listen to.

There's a saying: "If this was the first ___ you listened to, you're not going to listen to another one."

A classic example.

Numan's PPG Wave-era music was way, way better than this.

Talk Talk's highest-charting 1980s classic: 'Today'.

Only the 1990 'natural history' re-release of 'It's My Life' surpassed it in the UK to-date.

Great vocals.
Compelling piano-synths.
And that wonderful woodwind instrument.

You can't go wrong... if you've got the class...

'Welcome To The Real World' is worth researching too. Praise to @helenc77.bsky.social for 'Uniform Of Youth' and the title track on #80sTM

Praise to all the tracks tonight so far. Enjoying them all... #forgotten80s

I've been trying to use 'Sweet Dreams' synths, layered on to 'Who's That Girl' vocal melodies. With some Fairlight vox pads thrown in too, of course.

Struggling to achieve this though!?!

Wonderful radio! @ginsoaked.bsky.social @helenc77.bsky.social

I once owned the 12" of 'Let Him Go'. I don't believe the old vinyl player my Mum bought, in replacement of her much better vinyl turntable I scratched and broke, did the track much justice in faithful listening!

It's one of the classic Depeche Mode songs that SOUNDS so much better performed live.

Has the 1 in 5 weeks Depeche Mode broadcast rate for the first 500 programmes still kept pace?

Do you remember 'The Weight Of The Wind', from their second album 'Scoundrel Days'?

Probably the same synth.

The live performance I saw a video of on the other platform sounded quite superb.

Par for the course with a-ha though.

We've been treated to some wonderful Fairlight vox pad synths tonight. 'Things Can Only Get Better' a classic. 'Appetite' too.
