Here's a question all should know the answer to WP. :lol

Mark "Jacko" Jackson released two songs in 1985 while he was still playing football. One made it well into the top 40 for memory the other wasn't as successful. Can anyone name the two songs? :lol :rollin :lol

Sadly i know one of them Tucker

"i'm an individual" - what a shocker


And my question (sticking to the 1980's theme)

Name the group and the song this line comes from

"I hired a detective to try and find out where you are"

"Oh yes I am a dreamer, I still see us flying high!"

from the song "Don't Walk Away" by Pat Benatar 1988 (Wide Awake In Dreamland)

That would be Fischer-Z with "Why Didn't You Tell Me."

Correct group RR but the song title is wrong, although you have quoted another line from the same song  :thumbsup

Well done to WP and you MT for naming one song each. :thumbsup

I believe Warwick Capper's song was titled "I only take what's mine".

I've got one. Moving away from this '80's theme for the time being. Who can name the founding members of the New York Dolls?

That would be Pat Wilson with Bop Girl 1983. But I can't remember who the famous person in her film clip was.

The New York Dolls were a glam band formed in 1972.They never had any success in their short life, but they influenced EVERY band in the first wave of Punk from the Sex Pistols to the Ramones to the Clash. They re-formed a few years ago, and toured Australia with the Pixies in 2007.
