Notes
The eighties as I recall
Were far from being a ball
The music was new wave to punk
Some I can still remember, some was, well junk
Margaret Thatcher, high inflation
Many strikes, active trades unions, all quite a situation
The collapse of communism
Leading to a new mechanism
Olympics and boycotts in Moscow and LA
Jamaicans enter the bobsleigh
The launch of MTV
The birth of music videos, long before the launch of DVD
These are some of the highlights
In this poem of 80's delights
