Now Music 1984

Side Two: Two Tribes (Frankie Goes To Hollywood), White Lines (Grandmaster and Melle Mel), Nelson Mandela (Special AKA), Love Wars (Womack and Womack), You're The Best Thing (Style Council), One Love/People Get Ready (Bob Marley and the Wailers), Small Town Boy (Bronski Beat)
Side Three: I Want To Break Free (Queen), Time After Time (Cyndi Lauper), Love Resurrection (Alison Moyet), Young At Heart (Bluebells), Robert De Niro's Waiting (Bananarama), Doctor Mabuse (Propaganda), What's Love Got To Do With It (Tina Turner), When You're Young And In Love (Flying Pickets)
Side Four: Wake Me Up Before You Go Go (Wham), You Take Me Up (Thompson Twins), It's Raining Men (Weather Girls), Dance Me Up (Gary Glitter), Susanna (The Art Company), One Better Day (Madness), Red Guitar (David Sylvian)
