Another Year, Another Party - this time I`m trying to recreate my early youth by raiding my Dad`s 8-Track Collection and dusting off the old fondue set - so far i`ve compiled a small but effective track list for the beginning of the night - but if you can think back that far I need your help - can anyone suggest some real good cheesy music to go with my fondue!

Here`s what I got so far.............

Chanson D Amour Manhattan Transfer
Forever and Ever Demis Roussos
Volver A Empezar (Begin The Beguine) Julio Iglesias
Y Viva Espana Sylvia

Save Your Kisses for Me Brotherhood Of Man
Welcome Home Peters & Lee

Born with A Smile on My Face Stephanie De Sykes
Love`s Theme Barry White
Sexy Eyes Dr. Hook
La Vie En Rose Grace Jones
Yes Sir I Can Boogie Baccara
Black is Black La Belle Epoque
Can`t Stop The Music The Village
People Do it Do it Again Raffaella CarrĂ 
Tijuana Taxi Herb Alpert, The Tijuana Brass

Please Release Me Engelbert Humperdinck
Can`t Smile Without You Barry Manilow
