Music was changing in tems of its focus in 1985 though I didn't realise it. immersed in my rich experience of vitality, beauty and youth in the Swiss Alps. Musically Madonna, Prince, Springsteen and Michael Jackson ruled the roost. All fantastic in their own ways but personally I was more interested in guitar toting romantic refuseniks. R.E.M, The Smiths, The Go Betweens.
Bryan Adams never particularly turned my head though I didn dance to Run To You, his breakthrough song of sexual betrayal when it played in a Saturday night in the Italian disco in town where I went with my colleagues and friends.It was his notable New Wave moment and it helped make his name and he moved off to blander arena lighters aloft material. It still makes my toes tap.
