I found most of the hits we had for 1985 were more US based.  I did find a few we got, that the US didn't get such as The Riddle

You got 6 out of 7.  You got 1 more to go :)

#38 The Bronski Beat song is "Why?"
#55 Be Near Me - ABC
#57 sounds like Billy Ocean?
#69 In My House - Mary Jane Girls

Karen beat you to #69, but you did get the others correct :)

Just a guess but I am thinking

45 ?? - Paul Janz


Now, I could just be hoping out of hope, but I am pretty sure it sounds like him. :)

It is Paul Janz yes, in what was his most well-known song of the 80's (but not his most successful)

Yay!  I've been waiting for you to remove the limit!  :D 8)

59. Do You Want Crying - Katrina & The Waves (a lesser-known hit from this group, but still a good song IMO)

A correct answer.  That puts you in the lead 8)

# 2 Jermaine Stewart "The Word is Out"

From your hints, I gather #19 is 'Shame' by The Motels.  :)

A guess on #33...

Is it 'Rock And Roll Girls' by John Fogerty?  :)

# 2 Jermaine Stewart "The Word is Out"


correct :)

A guess on #33...

Both excellent guesses and correct answers :)

Well, if it wasn't for the hints...

#39 is Slade, but I don't know the song.

#81 is John Waite, but again - a blank on the song.



#1 for Pia Zadora :o I knew that song hit #1 somewhere :)



I know she barely scratched the surface in US, but we didn't know her like the Americans knew her of course.

Nevertheless, I think it's a great song. :)

"When the Rain Begins to Fall" is from the movie "Voyage of the Rock Aliens" which was an international film in 1984.  Wasn't released to North America until 1988

#34 has to be Laura Branigan...but I have no idea of what the song might be... ???

#34 has to be Laura Branigan...but I have no idea of what the song might be... ???


It is Laura Branigan yes.  This track was the least successful of all the Top 40 hits she had

The Game is Over and CeramicsFanatic is the winner 8)

(The remaining answers will remain a mystery)
