MTV new compilation featuring best of 80’s to hit racks
MUMBAI: Good news for the twinkle toes. MTV network India is all set to launch a twin pack compilation of the best of 80’s music titled VH1’s The New Romantics Are Back.
Featuring 36 classic and fashionable tracks of the 80’s, the compilations consists of songs of the yesteryears like Love Changes Everything (Climie Fischer), Do You Really Want To Hurt Me (Culture Club), I Just Died In Your Arms Tonight (Cutting Crew), Don’t Go (Yazoo), Shattered Dreamz (Johnny hates Jazz) and More Than This (Roxy Music), says a company release.
After the angst and cynicism of the late sixties and seventies, the music by 80’s known as ‘New Romantics’ was light, refreshing, melodious pop-music. The underground music movement of 80’s worked on a dance floor, on the streets and even at work.
While the 80’s bands named Spandau Ballet, Duran Duran, Wham!, Haircut 100, Kajagoogoo and Culture Club sporting musicians with outrageous dress sense sporting gelled back hair, mascara eyed frilly shirts and tight pants, the foot tapping music should make for some interesting times.
