    "Shaddap a you face" trumps all other 80s tunes.

    The second one. I love Roxy music.

    You can just tell by listening, that music like this(for good or for bad) could only have come out of England. Some good old 80s.

    Thank you

    Prefer the second one. In fact it's probably my favourite Roxy Music track. Could never get into Joe Jackson.

    I like both but definitely prefer More Than This. It wouldn't be one of my favourite Roxy Music songs though.

    Oh My God, Joe Jackson!!!

    Epitomises the early 80's music scene for me.

    Superb single from a band that were big in the early 80s, now mostly forgotten:

    The first one - it has quite nice piano bits. The second bored the tits off me.

    Yeah, that's not bad, only the intro is too long for a first time listener. There must be a shorter version of it out there too.

    The Joe Jackson track is fantastic, a classic. The Roxy Music one is lightweight and forgettable.

    Love the two equally OP. Slightly foppish artists were doing great things at the time. It was a great time for Bowie too IMO.
    Two other tracks I love from around then: Fiction Factory - Feels Like Heaven; Furniture - Brilliant Mind
    Also: Japan - ghosts

    No contest.

    Bryan Ferry is awesome, anyone who disagrees has to come through me

    I've always preferred the first one. There's something about it that makes you want to turn up the radio.

    Life In a Northern Town is about the only tune that I prefer the remix (Dario G) over the original.
