Bit more politics - it's a bit of a cheat because I think it came out a few years earlier than '87, but I first heard it n "Back to Basics" which was a compilation album released in 1987
OK, just one more. It was used in Empire of the Sun (1987) but as I don't know any Welsh I haven't got a clue what the words mean. I think it's a lullaby so is fitting this time of night - Correct me if I'm wrong Helen

Are the angels on you smiling And beguiling you with charm While you also smile, my blossom In my bosom soft and warm? Have no fear now, leaves are knocking Gently knocking at our door Have no fear now, waves are beating Gently beating on the shore Sleep, my darling, none shall harm you Nor alarm you, never cry In my bosom sweetly smiling And beguiling those on high
