George Micheal - Faith

Wham - Club Tropicana

Michael Jakson - Smooth Criminal - Dirty Diana

Kylie Minogue - I should be so lucky

Fleedwood Mac - tell me lies

Taylor Dean - Tell it to my heart

Aha - Stay on these roads

Madonna - Live to tell

Pet shop boys - Heart

Bros - I own you nothing

kiss - I was made for loving you

"Push" by the Cure. It was on 1985's Head on the Door album. And it was received as almost a "B" side, but the wonderful chimey guitar intro that goes on and on sounds wonderful and Christmasy. I play a guitar today because of that song . .that is THE song that made me buy a guitar and take lessons.
