Am I the only one who looks forward to this each year?

Currently watching the Countdown episode shown the night after Live Aid in July 1985 - ah the memories.... complete with Tears For Fears and Kids In The Kitchen amongst others. May not be sleeping for a while.

Anyone else watching/recording this and reminiscing/cringing?

I grew in the 80's, and every January I'm reminded just how much crap music was created in that decade.
Thankfully Rock Arena is also shown so I'm reminded of how much good music was created as well.
