I discovered both on the TOTP reruns of 1985 on BBC 4 a few years ago. '19' has some great production, a precursor to late 80s sample house and an important lyrical message aginst war. Godley and Creme Cry is an epic ballad. Don't You (Forget About Me) is bit overplayed but has good vocal and production especilly the last buildup.'Kayleigh' is a good emotive sad 80s rock ballad, the best of that genre since John Waite - Missing You and similar in its themes. Debarge have a very nice but cheesy and nostalgic song. The Style Council song is energetic and good Northern Soul revival. Edited Sunday at 22:144 days by TheSnake

A slight improvement on last week.
