  3. “What Have I Done to Deserve This?” - Pet Shop Boys with Dusty Springfield

I prefer “West End Girls” but this song tied in too well with the last playlist so I had to use it.

  2. “Tainted Love” - Soft Cell
  3. “What Have I Done to Deserve This?” - Pet Shop Boys with Dusty Springfield
  4. “Girls on Film” - Duran Duran

A July 1981 release in the UK. However, American Duran Duran fans caught hold of this song in 1983, when MTV first started playing the video and Capitol Records re-released their eponymous debut album in the US.

My favorite PSB song is “Go West,” though it dates to 1993, so, well outside the parameters of this game. I also love “Suburbia.”

It’s interesting that the Second British Invasion started in the early 80s, and skips the Punk Rock Invasion of the late 70s. So many awesome bands charted then: The Police, The Clash, The Attractions (with Elvis Costello)…
