Those weren't my 80s.
Nor was Grease in the 80s: FACT. "We thought it was going to be Grease and Dirty Dancing, which we love," says Gemma Fernandez, 25, from London.
Shame that of all the great music produced in that decade, the only bits that the mainstream media officially remember (and hence what is recycled to us) are the clinically produced TOTP-sanctioned hits. Ditto the official version of the 70s is Glam Rock - nothing else happened.
