Today on the show we asked listeners to give us their suggestions for the best tunes from the ‘80’s that would prove a hit on the dance-floor… While most people were agreed that The Human League should make it on the list, not everyone gave the thumbs up to Joe’s all-time favourite rock ballad, Total Eclipse of the Heart (he even has weird hand gestures to go with the song!?).
