Wow, loving the 80s music, you're going to have a great time dancing to this music, although maybe not quite as good as Abba ;-)
I think my favourites would be Wham, Footloose (love dancing to that!), Belinda Carlisle and Rick Astley although there's loads of good ones in there, however (good connective) where are Jason and Kylie???
You definitely need to do some air guitar and head banging to Bon Jovi, Whitesnake and Def Leppard - I'm sure Mr Temple will demonstrate! :-D
Have a great time
Miss Ruskin

For me, it has to be the rock of Eye of the Tiger (made famous in the Rocky film) and the Final Countdown by Europe. I once taught at a school where the Final Countdown chorus was the bell to come in after break!
However, I think you need a good synthesiser beat for a dance therefore I'd choose Beat It by Michael Jackson (30 seconds) or Bronski Beat at 1 min 10 seconds.

Thanks Niall; Mr Patterson would be proud of your taste for Rock!
Our teacher Mr Thurlow started raving about the 80’s music!!! He lets us have Friday disco but he controls the music!!! When only here music that he likes....
We hope your teacher doesn’t have the same taste of music as Mr Thurlow

Great to hear from you. We love comments from other schools in other countries. Do you have a class/school website?
I don't get a chance to control the disco (although we have one on a Friday afternoon), but I'm sure my tastes would get the same response as Mr Thurlow!
