Owen Andrew's Remember The 80s & Retro Countdown

Another two hours of those memories of the 80s!

We're at the tail end of the decade to start, with this week's Top 5 from 1982. There are two mash ups this week, both fusing the 80s with the more recent. And when it comes to The Song That Should Never Have Been Born - well, the less said about that the better...

This will be the last Remember The 80s for a short while, but I look forward to bringing you more of those 80s memories in weeks to come!

Eighties memories, and lots of 'em!

Whether your favourite part of the decade was the early or late 80s, there's something for you right here.

Enjoy!

Here it comes - another two hours of 80s memories!

Enjoy hearing Adam & The Ants, The Human League, The Bangles, Queen, Bruce Springsteen, and lots more.

Enjoy our Song That Should Never Have Been Born slightly less...

Bringing back the memories of the late 80s this week, as Owen Andrew counts down the UK Top 40 for the first week of 1989.

Happy New Year to all Remember The 80s listeners! I'm back after a few weeks off over the holidays, and all your 80s memories are still here. The Top 5 starts us off today from New Year week in 1980, we have a couple of great mash ups, and a video game related Song That Should Never Have Been Born. As well as all that, some awesome 80s songs. So - two hours of 80s heaven.

Enjoy the show!

The UK Top 40 from 33 years ago this week, featuring records by Billy Joel, Earth Wind & Fire, Chaka Khan, Rod Stewart and lots more.

Happy New Year!

Remember what music you were listening to 20 years ago? In this UK Top 40, you'll hear Guns 'n' Roses, Diana Ross, Salt 'n' Pepa, Cliff Richard and loads more that were all in the Christmas week chart back in 1991.

Owen Andrew counts down the UK Top 40 singles chart from this week 35 years ago.

Songs by Cliff Richard, Rod Stewart, The Who, Abba, Queen and lots more!

We're into 1986 for our Top 10 kick-off, and the second hour starts with The Time Warp from the year when several grand would have bought you a shiny new computer with a deathly slow 486 processor.

Non-Geordies will scratch their heads at today's Song That Should Never Have Been Born, and the mash up fuses 1983 with 2004.

Enjoy the show!

We're back to a two hour show, and I crammed a lot into two hours!

All of it, classic 80s memories.

Enjoy.

Owen here from Remember The 80s! This is my new show, counting down the UK Top 40 from this week in a different year each week, from the 70s, 80s, 90s or 00s. Today, it was 1982.

Hope you enjoy the memories.

It's my last three hour show for a while; due to many other commitments, RT80s reverts to the two hour format from next week. All the usual features will be staying though - never fear.

So here's this week's three hour extravaganza!

We're rewinding 30 years to 1981 for the Top 10 which gets the show started. Our two mash ups, in hours two and three, mix the modern with the 80s, and do you remember when the M25 motorway was opened? That was our Time Warp year.

Crack open a Quatro, and enjoy the 80s.

A short tribute to a legend of British broadcasting to start the show, to bid farewell to Sir Jimmy Saville, who died aged 84 last weekend. Then it's on to 1987 for our Top 10, and after that... you know the drill.

Let's do this.

We're going back 27 years for the Top 10 from this week in 1984, and later in the show you'll hear two songs from a great 80s/90s indie band who have announced a reunion tour! Here's three hours of awesome 80s memories, coming your way.

So here it is! After three weeks away, the new Remember The 80s XL is here. Enjoy the memories, and please join my Facebook page at Facebook.com/RememberThe80s.

My last show for a short while, as next week I'm taking the family to sunny Spain. When I return, it'll be the new Remember The 80s XL! The Top 5 will be a Top 10, we'll be playing a few songs from just either side of the 80s, and the show will be E-X-T-E-N-D-E-D to three hours!

For now though, you have the Top 5 from this week in 1982 to enjoy, as well as all the usual fun and frolics.

See you in three weeks!

One day earlier this week, it was two degrees colder here in London than in NORTHERN ALASKA. Yep - summer has ended for the UK, the RT80s studio fan is being replaced by a fan heater, but who cares about the weather when there's all this great 80s music to play?

We're way back in 1980 for our Top 5, and after that we're celebrating what would have been Queen legend Freddie Mercury's 65th birthday in three different ways!

More birthdays, more mash ups, more memories. Did I forget one? Oh yeah - more memories.

Enjoy the show.

I have to wipe away a little tear, as I bring you the last show of the summer. As we enter September, the UK gets ready for even chillier weather. But fear not, because as always today's show is HOT!

Top 5 from 1988, another Time Warp year to identify, and another atrocity in The Song That Should Never Have Been Born.

Enjoy!

It's 1986 for our UK Top 5 to kick off this week's show, and in hour 2 a Song That Should Never Have Been Born by no less than a BBC DJ!

I play a ton of 80s hits by artists with their birthdays this week, including members of The Bangles, Kiss and Sister Sledge - amongst many others.

Enjoy the show, and join us at Facebook.com/RememberThe80s!

New Order and Michael Jackson are just two of the artists in our Top 5 from this week in 1987. The mash ups mix the 80s with 2010 in hour 1, and the 80s with the 80s in hour 2!

A ton of memories from the 80s to make you feel all young again.

Classical music on Remember The 80s?? Yep - take a listen to our Top 5 from 1981! I'm taking next week off to take the family on holiday, and probably allow the wife and kids to spend every penny I have. So enjoy this week's show and I'll be back with another two hours of 80s memories in two week's time!

We're at the tail end of the decade for tonight's Top 5, going back 22 years to find out what the UK's biggest selling singles were this week. Loads of 80s musicians' birthdays to celebrate, mash ups to play and memories to... well... remember! Let's do this.

Here it is - another two hours of 80s classics. Remember 1983? The Top 5 should bring back a few memories! Remember The Blues Brothers movie? It was 20 years before the track that the theme is mashed with in one of our mash ups.

Enjoy the show!

You'll notice a new montage to open the show tonight, which I have to say sounds pretty good! Your Top 5 is from the UK chart of this week in 1985, then there's the birthdays, the mash ups and sooooo many memories - all from the 80s.

Download it, listen to it, just enjoy it!

Oh - and join the Facebook group. www Facebook.com/RememberThe80s.

For all my listeners in the USA who celebrated Independence Day this week, today's Top 5 singles are from the US Billboard chart of this week in 1982.

Everything else in the show are British memories of the 80s - hope you enjoy 'em!

I spent all day last Sunday at Hyde Park in London for the Hard Rock Calling concert; a blistering hot day, watching Train, Rumer, Adam Ant, Stevie Nicks and Rod Stewart. It was such a great gig, and the three of those acts that had hits during the 80s can be heard on today's show!

Our Top 5 comes from right at the start of the decade, and you'll hear two mash ups during the two hours too - one of which is pretty bizarre!

It's a special one today, as we welcome Rodge Moore of Facebook group Eighties Nostalgia. With over 5,000 members, you'll never meet a bigger 80s fanatic! I chatted with Rodge, and played his 10 favourite 80s songs, as well as the UK's Top 5 from this week in 1988.

Search Facebook for Eighties Nostalgia, and join the group represented by the black and white pic of Adam Ant. And join the RT80s group while you're at it! www.Facebook.com/RememberThe80s.

We're a day late this week, but everything will be back to Wednesday next week. On today's Remember The 80s, the chart for June 1986, and birthday celebrations for Noddy Holder of Slade, Paul McCartney, The Thompson Twins' Tom Bailey and several others. Also a Song That Should Never Have Been Born that thankfully wasn't a hit, and two more 80s-themed mash ups.

You love it, don'tcha!

Remember The 80s has been downloaded and/or streamed no less than 10,500 times in the last month, so thank you to everyone who's enjoying the show. It also seems that a few hundred of you regard us as Big In Japan! (See what I did there?)

Here's this week's 80s-fest: Top 5 from this week in 1981, LOADS of celeb birthdays and their 80s hits, and a Song That Should Never Have Been Born that will make you wish YOU'D never been born when you hear it.

Enjoy the show!

Another Wednesday, another feast of 80s memories! 1982 brings us the Top 5 to open the show, the hour 1 mash up shows us how similar Lady Gaga's recent song sounds to an old Madonna classic, and modern hip hop fuses with 80s Madness in hour 2.

There's the birthdays, the Song That Should Never Have Been Born, and a bucketful of great 80s songs to fill almost two hours. And don't forget to like us on www.Facebook.com/RetroRadioInternational!

Enjoy the show.

The 80s. Remember 'em? Well hopefully I'll bring back a few memories for you in the next two hours!

The Eurovision Special! To celebrate this year's Europe-wide cheesefest this Saturday, I play songs from various countries that won the Eurovision Song Contest in the 80s, as well as UK entries including our one winning song from that decade.

Also this week's Top 5 from 1989, and a couple of great mash ups.

Skill!

Another Wednesday, another two hours of 80s memories! Top 5 from this week in 1985, mash ups, The Time Warp and a Song That Should Never Have Been Born that was a terrible cover version of a great club classic.

Next week, to celebrate the annual Eurovision Song Contest coming around again, it'll be a Remember The 80s Eurovision special!

Don't miss it - Wednesday, live from 5pm (UK) on ReachOnAir.com, or right here straight afterwards.

It's a Royal Wedding special this week! To celebrate Willy & Kate getting hitched, I play songs by King, Queen, Prince and Princess.

The Top 5 is from 1983, and you'd have to have been "barking" mad to have bought the single of our Song That Should Never Have Been Born.

A slightly shorter show than usual due to tech probs - that's what you get for keeping your studio computer by a huge window with no blinds or curtains on a sunny day! I edited out the missing few minutes, so you won't notice.

Enjoy the show.
