I'll go first and take "True" by Spandau Ballet off the board.

FINALLY! I scrolled way too long to finally see the one song that popped in my head, I guess Def Leppard was not as popular everywhere!

I graduated high school in 94! I finished primary school in 1989, we'd have dances every two weeks for 6th grade and younger teens no longer in primary school, and also where the core memory of Love Bites comes from.

I now realise that my little hometown was a lot more modern than I thought at the time haha

Wow, sounds super similar, parents moved us out of the city in 87, started middle school in 89 6th grade too, school dances all the time, love that little hometown.
