I remember seeing the video for Bronski Beat's Smalltown Boy on Much Music many times back in 1984.

I also recall my brother's band covering Message in a Bottle back in '79 / '80.

These are all songs I played back in my club DJ days (You obviously would have LOVED my night). Some of the other artists (Joy Division, J&MC, Kraftwerk), I played other songs than the ones you posted. "Tainted Love" I always played the medley version with "Where Did Our Love Go", and "Blue Monday" was my favorite song to spin.

Not a bad mix, but I rarely listen to this type of music anymore. Losing my DJ gig is still somewhat of a sore spot with me (as other Click members will attest to), and I try not to think about it too much.

Still, it's great to see young people still like this music!!
