    Electric Avenue... eddy grant.

    Perhaps the first actually dreadful mention since Dave Mathews :)

    CJ, are you confusing Supertramp with ELO? It's easily done... Mr Blue Sky is absolutely in my top ten favourite songs ever. "Goodbye Stranger" by the 'Tramp (as I imaginesome losers call them) is also up there.

    'A-ha - take on me' and 'Tainted Love - soft cell' are both legitimate weapons of awesomeness.

    Another great song that's somehow gotten lost in the pop cultural flotsam and jetsam, that rules the Karaoke roost:

    74-74 by The Connells.

    I was out on a work dinner one time, not long after myself and a few others had just joined the company. One of the best "getting to know you" games we played at the table was "Most embarrassing track on your iPod" :)
