Comment:
All you Gen-Xers, it's time for the ultimate disco-night nostalgia trip, as we line up the bands that got you bopping during those fine, fair, gelled-hair school days of the '80s. And if you're the offspring of Gen-Xers, you're about to witness some excruciating dance moves, as your parents set about delivering their best "Billie Jean," jacket sleeves scrunched up to the elbows, and try to raise the pace during that middle bit of "Come on Eileen," where it builds up a dervish-like head of steam. Our advice: keep it simple with the side-to-side sway of the Mentals' "Live It Up," the easy beat of Bananarama's "Shy Boy," or the step-to-it simplicity of Kylie's "I Should Be So Lucky." Paul Hardcastle samples the future and Olivia Newton-John gets her skates on, in Next Steps.
