Exactly how far back are we supposed to set the wayback machine grandpa?

Or have we already abandoned the search for synthpop new wave ?

I missed that bit about synthpop.
Maybe I chose to ignore it. lol. Not real keen on that genre!
Anyway at my gramps age I have the right to be selective.
Sorry @3dc . . I just went back to read your original post. Synthpop you did ask for.

What can one say about Popcorn, one of the first Synth Pop tunes not exactly rare but worth dusting off the old grey matter for thouse of us who remember it from 69.

Modern version of original but seeing Pans People dancing again is well ... nough said (a Northern expression).

Did they steal their chord progression from Poppa Don't Preach by Madonna?

Now there is a conundrum!

Its a Dream 1982

Poppa Don't Preach 1986

I had not noticed the similarity.

They even sound to me to be in the same key signature. Slightly different tempos.

I'd be surprised if an IP Troll hasn't jumped on this one already.
