BOC was from 1978 - Apollo 440's cover made it in 1995
Heart - Alone was from 1987
Wilder's Stride was from 1984
Boston's More Than A Feeling was from 1977
Hope some of these help.

I'm pretty sure "Melt With You" is from 1982. I don't know for sure, I wasn't born then. :-/ I'm sure someone else here can tell you. :)

I had never ever heard of that song until my holiday - i got 14 out of 15 in the music quiz - and i got that song wrong as i had no idea what it was! Every other song was so easy - so I just had to know when it was released!
Thanks for the others also guys :)

Subject: Re: Years of songs?
I realised that, but I was more taking into account the fact that Criz (from England, like me) would like to know that it hit the charts in 1977. I think I realise it was from 76 now - sorry!
