About this listen

July 1985 was a golden month on Australian radio, an irresistible mix of home-grown pop, British attitude, and the biggest names on the planet. These were the songs blaring from cassette decks, corner pubs, and Saturday-night TV, when every hook seemed bigger than life and every chorus felt like summer.

This Five-Shot rewinds to that moment in time when the Australian charts were pure color and motion, five tracks, five stories, all heart.
