Things Can Only Get Better

Yeah.

And this is Things Can Only Get Better.

We're clinging to the things we prize.

But I won't stop and falter And if we throw it all away It's gonna only get better

He was freaking awesome.

So his album, Dream Into Action, had Things Can Only Get Better, Life in One Day, No One Is to Blame.

And then if you had the CD bonus track, It Had Like to Get to Know You Well, which is in the movie, Better Off Dead, when they're fixing the car together.

Howard Jones was awesome.

See what I mean about 1984 and 1985, which we're now in being two of the best years in pop music.

You don't believe me? Well, let's hear a couple more songs from 85, starting with this one from Howard Jones, Things Can Only Get Better.

Actually, if you were with us on Thursday for the Lunchtime Lunacy Show, we had Jay's daughter Layla with us in the studio because it was the day before she went back to school, so she wanted to make the most of it.

And we're also joined by Megan, who wanted to find out about working in a radio station, what it was like, and I don't know what she let herself in for, but I hope she enjoyed it.

Another studio LP was about to surface, being Dream Into Action, and the first single to be released off it.

Things can only get better.

These were heady times, weren't

they? I remember a general feeling of being a bit nervous because it was the first single from the new album.

But the record company must have been delighted.

I mean, I thought I had like, you know, quite a few singles.

Things can only get better.

Yeah.
