1983 was een bijzonder vruchtbaar jaar.
De commerciële doorbraak van de Britse wave wereldwijd.
Veelkleurige artiesten en bands duiken op en Italië en Duitsland
pikten ook hun graantje mee ... de Europop werd geboren.

Maak zelf maar een lijstje met favoriete nummer 1 hits
uit België, UK, Nederland, Duitsland en US ... pure 80s stuff.
