Back to 1984 for a bit of pre-Christmas frivolity on this week’s Off The Chart! Steve and Julian guide us through some less obvious hits, three tracks from a featured album, a hit from an international chart, a look at the day’s events and the top five in full. Which top twenty hit was a sequel to a huge number 1 from three years earlier? Who described the lyrics of their latest hit as “the confused ramblings of an ’80s popstar”? And who keeps making Shakin’ Stevens cry? Click PLAY to find out!
