Best of 1982 - The Singles List
After having been propelled further by the New Romantic movement and
becoming much easier to handle, Synthesizers became dominant in pop
music and a possible formula for future success. The Human League were
still ruling the charts and won the BRIT Award for the best Breakthrough
act. Following their success story other bands like Depeche Mode,
Yazoo, Soft Cell adopted synthesizers as main instruments which had an
impact in launching of the Second British Invasion in the US. This brought the new styles, rhythms and stars to the States including Duran
Duran, The Human League, Eurythmics, Billy Idol and more. Sadly some of
the great bands from late 70s and early 80s disbanded which included
most notably Blondie, Adam and The Ants, ABBA and Japan.
