Part of the Heart family
Heart 80s was launched by Global as a spin-off from Heart, the popular feel-good music station heard across the UK. It quickly became one of the most successful digital radio stations in Britain, proving how much listeners love the music of the 1980s. Its success helped inspire the wider family of decade stations, including Heart 70s, Heart 90s and Heart 00s, as well as Heart Dance and the seasonal Heart Xmas.
The sound of the 80s
On Heart 80s you will hear artists such as Madonna, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Duran Duran, Wham!, Queen, Cyndi Lauper, Spandau Ballet, Bon Jovi and many more. The playlist covers chart-topping singles, big movie soundtrack hits and the songs that defined school discos, wedding receptions and road trips. Presenters add a touch of nostalgia with stories and memories from the decade, and breakfast and drive time shows keep the mood upbeat, while much of the day is dedicated to back-to-back music.
