It’s hard to rank the early 80’s hits. Eddy Grant’s “Electric Avenue” is definitely in my Top 10.“Funky Town” - Lipps Inc., “Cars” - Gary Numan, “Who Can It Be Now?”- Men At Work , “Come On Eileen” - Dexy’s Midnight Runners, “She Blinded Me With Science” - Thomas Dolby, “The Safety Dance” - Men Without Hats, Wall of Voodoo - “Mexican Radio”, Modern English - “I’II Stop the World and Melt With You” and Madness - “Our House” round out the Top 10.

“Electric Avenue” was both a UK and US number 2 hit single in 1983, selling over a million copies. The remix of the song was a UK Top Ten hit again in 2001.
