(Finished January 26th, 2022) Part 3 of Oh What Memories: Quirky and Fun Songs of the 80s

Hello,

What is obscure? I guess that would be any song that you might not be familiar with. For instance I've heard Madonna's "Like A Prayer" hundreds of times. It has been in commercial etc, but it still might be obscure to you. Even some songs on here by big named artists are obscure to me. To paraphrase I guess obscurity is in the ear of the beholder.

So here they are the fun, the quirky and a few heartfelt songs as well.

One of the most beautiful ballads ever. 35) Simply Red "Holding Back The Years":
