Urge Overkill - Girl You'll Be A Woman Soon

I love the melody to this song, but find the lyrics a little disturbing. The singer looks like Tom Petty and sounds like Neil Diamond.
Here's the Neil Diamond original for comparison -

 
Mrs F and I are going into battle later to come up with the most 80's ist 80's song of the 80's. Not necessarily the best, but the most 80's ist :unsure:

I have 4 of my 5 entries so far but need one more. I'm thinking either Berlin - Take My Breath Away, something from Simple Minds, The Bangles or Human League.

Any suggestions gladly received :)

Don Henley - Boys of Summer


Kenny Loggins - Danger Zone


Eric Carmen - Hungry Eyes


Billy Idol - Mony Mony

 
What was the outcome of the 80's off?

Wiped the floor with Mrs F, especially after pulling out such classics as Eye of the Tiger 😁

Tomorrow night we're now have a 90's off where she will definitely come into her own as it's her era. We've/I've agreed that 'Wannabe' and 'Hit me Baby One More Time' are exempt as they're a bit too obvious but I admit that I'm struggling.

I'm kind of hoping that Mrs F doesn't have Wonderwall or Smells Like Teen Spirit (I know she won't as hers will be Take That and East 17) but I'm not confident.

Help me @thunderchild you're my only hope 😁

My daughter (the ultimate judge) absolutely loves this song 🤞

All checked in for my flight to Sydney from Manchester via Heathrow. Been waiting for this trip for nearly a year and now tomorrow I'll finally head to Australia and New Zealand!

survived a redundancy scenario where I work for the 3rd time. Now it looks likely I will get to cover work for 2 other teams.. Pretty please for a payrise? That would be a no and so stay on the min wage.
Live in Market Bosworth and take each day as it comes......
Well it looks like I'm off to Australia and New Zealand next year! Booked with BA from Manchester via Heathrow with a stop in Singapore and returning with Air New Zealand and BA via LAX to Heathrow. Will circumnavigate the globe and be my first trans-Pacific flight. First long haul flight with BA as well and of course Air NZ.
15 years at the same company was reached the weekend before last. Not sure how they will mark the occasion apart from the compulsory payirse to minimum wage (1st rise for 2 years; i was 15% above it back then!)
