1989.

I'd say it's more a LATE EIGHTIES special ...

- It's Money That Matters by Randy Newman is from the Land of Dreams album of 1988.
- Pretty Girls is from Cameo's 1988 album Machismo, as is Skin I'm In.
- Hooked On You is from Sweet Sensation's 1988 album Take it While It's Hot.
- Samantha Fox's Love House is from the 1988 album I Wanna Have Some Fun.
- King of Portugal by Al Stewart was released in 1988 from the Last Days of The Century album.
- Phenomena II's Did It All For Love was released on the their 1987 album Dream Runner.
- Little Lives, Big Love by Adele Bertei was on her 1988 album Little Lives.
- The Way You Love Me was released on self titled Karyn White album from 1988.
- Stevie Wonders 1987 album Characters featured My Eyes Don't Cry, but the single was released in 1988.

The rest were all from 1989.

I love how someone at Rage is delving into the more 'unplayed' songs from 70s and 80s.

Very happy to see Boomtown by David + David, loved that track in the day.

Same. Loved it when i heard it on Take 40 back in Summer '86/'87. Never saw the video until about 5 years ago on YouTube. I finally got hold of the single about 15 years ago and picked up their album - a rare find on CD - about 10 years ago. Highly recommend it esp the songs released as follow up singles....Do y'self a favour!
