Speaking of Wham, did Careless Whisper make it DP? No. Sorry. No one nominated it, and I didn't think of while doing my own fill ins. Oh, darn. Anyway I'll go with Land Down Under.

Men at Work must be janitors because they just SWEEEEEEEEPT! ---------------------------------------------------------- Two more main stays of the 80's and this tournament. Phil Collins & Philip Bailey - Easy Lovere"Easy Lover" is a song written by Philip Bailey, Phil Collins, and Nathan East, and accredited to both singers Bailey and Collins when released as a single. The song appeared on Bailey's solo album Chinese Wall. Collins has also performed the song in his live shows and it appears on his 1990 album Serious Hits... Live!, as well as his 1998 compilation album, ...Hits. The song was a smash hit in the UK, reaching #1 and staying there for four weeks and also reaching #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US. The lighthearted video for the song was filmed in London and features Bailey traveling by helicopter to meet Collins in a television studio. Vs. Madonna - Dress You Up"Dress You Up" is the fifth single by pop singer Madonna from her second studio album, Like a Virgin . It was released on July 24, 1985 by Sire Records.

Easy Lover.
Dress You Up is one of Madge's weaker songs.

Holy crap... this song just started playing when I clicked the thread. So, I'm voting for it.

Last vote of the night for me. And it goes to the Phils Goodnight. I'll probably only do a couple more. This is match #106. I want to get to #108 and that will leave 20 for tommorow and that will be the end of round 1!

Phil moves on ------------------------------------------ Match #107 I was wondering when Cutting Crew would show up. Talking Heads - Road to Nowhere"Road to Nowhere" is a song by the Talking Heads, from the 1985 album Little Creatures. It also appeared on Best of Talking Heads, Sand in the Vaseline: Popular Favorites, the Once in a Lifetime box set and the Brick box set. The song was released as a single in 1985 and reached number 25 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks and number 6 in the British singles chart. The video, released to promote the single, features the band and various objects revolving, as if in their own "road to nowhere," and it was nominated for "Best Video of the Year" at the MTV Video Music Awards 1986. According to the sleeve of the Talking Head's compilation Once in a Lifetime, Byrne added the choral intro after deciding the song in itself was embarrassingly simplistic and monotonous. Vs. Cutting Crew - (I Just) Died In Your Arms"(I Just) Died in Your Arms" is a power ballad written by Nick Van Eede and performed by his band Cutting Crew. It was their biggest hit, peaking at #1 in the United States, and reaching the Top Five in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (UK). Subsequent releases failed to match the success of the song. It appears on the video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.
