Subject: What's that song?

Okay, I'm new here and have a question that's been bugging the $%!& out of me. There was a song in the 80's. Male vocals. Rock band. All I can remember of it was that the song started with the guy screaming, "Drop the needle!". It's not in reference to drug use, it was a record player needle. Damn good beat and bass guitar. I had it on LP in my jukebox, but I sold that over 15 years ago. Needless to say, the record went with it.
Does anyone know the song title and/or the artist? Something keeps reminding me of Axle Foley from Beverly Hills Cop. I doubt that's of any help.
Cheers!
Jim

The song you are looking for is from 1987 called 'Dance Desire' by the Canadian group Haywire :)

And just for the heck of it, in 1990, Canadian rap artist Maestro Fres Wes sampled it in his hit 'Drop the Needle'

DUDE! YOU ROCK!!! :D :D :D :D Super champ, man! I've been ripping my hair out trying to find it! Even my girlfriend couldn't remember it! And we have identical tastes in music!
I'm going straight to iTunes right now!
