GM you can do me a 1984 playlist if you like. War talk and songs were all over the place in 1984, I bought most of the Two Tribes 12" mixes for instance, and thought I'd be dead by 1989 under a mushroom cloud, everything was getting so hyped up with cruise missiles talk and Star Wars shields and Greenham Common women. I remember thinking it was WW3 and the end of the world any moment when Russia shot down the Korean passenger jet in September 1983 as I returned to school at just 14. At that time I recall thinking how sad it was I would have to live my whole life under threat of imminent nuclear holocaust within minutes. I used to dread the 4 minute warning going off while I was sat in some dull maths class with no time to run home to the family. How sad is that at 14.
If you buy second books from junk shops rather than charity shops, many of the leaflets about the 4-minute warning were used as bookmarks. Sometimes I have found some in record sleeves in old records.
It's barmy to think that hiding under tables, desks or lying flat in a ditch will protect you from a nuclear blast.
Imagine if the Greenham Common women and their offspring put their time and energy into protesting against lockdown and vaccine injuries.
I was in London protesting against lockdowns.
It was fun marching with lawyers, barristers and judges, whilst the police looked puzzled and annoyed as they were not expecting to seem next to commoners shaking hands, handing out free legal advice and business cards.
Well, for 1984 start with Ratt, Exile, Gus Hardin, McGuffey Lane and Atlanta. Gus Hardin was a bit of a celebrity crush of mine.

If only Starmer could focus on security and safety in the UK rather than other countries. Then again is a WEF globalist so we don't matter unless he can find a way to get richer via war. There is no profit in peace.
