Music Charts #12…

August 21st, 1983

Well, so far we’ve just been seeing what was happening in South Australia in the 80s, so now it’s time for a glimpse into the national charts.

Not surprisingly, a real eclectic bunch of tunes. A few crap ones (IMO, natch) but also some fucking killer tracks. The UK is well represented with Blue Monday by New Order, Speak Like A Child by The Style Council, Come Dancing by The Kinks, Fascination by The Human League, a couple of Eurythmics’ songs, and a host of others. Aussies get a good look in with Pressure Sway by Machinations, Show Me Some Discipline by The Sunnyboys, and tracks by Sharon O’Neil, Tim Finn, Real Life, and INXS amongst others. Pleasantly surprised that the US is the less represented for a change.
