Roman, sinayaw namin yan nung high school ako....pero sa bandang likod ako dahil di talaga ako magaling sumayaw....

basag, tumpak ang list mo! you just missed Romantic Dreams by Industry, was a hit in DWXB

romance, you missed Right on track by Breakfast Club, Never you done that by General Public, Hey Little girl by Matthew Wilder, How could it be by Eddie Murphy, and Rush Hour by Jane Wiedlin - basis ko is not international charts but how our local radio stations played these songs in the 80s

lito basilio, those 3 other songs by Junior that basag pointed out and Aawitin ko na lang by Bong Gabriel are "immortal classics" , request mo lang if you still don't have them, you also missed I still believe in us together by Hiyas

in my mind right now na 1 hit wonders (paki-point out na rin at baka ako naman ang may namiss)

Pag-ibig sa tag-araw by Beth Del Rosario
Macarena by Los del rio
Ice ice baby by Vanilla ice
Video killed the radio star by Buggles
Don't give up on us by David Soul
Disco duck by Rick Dees and his cast of Idiots

ito paborito ng marami, and i maybe wrong, pls. tell me if he has another nice song that I am missing

My sweet lady by Cliff deYoung

dERF...eto yung "Clean/Clean", pero yung version ng Bruce Woolley & The Camera Club...sa office kasi ako e...mamaya send ko yung sa The Buggles...pero mas gusto ko itong version na ito...vice versa naman dun sa "Video Killed The Radio Star"...mas gusto ko yung sa The Buggles kesa kay Bruce Woolley...
