80s Music/An 80's tune that escapes me

Question
I can hum the tune. I don't think it has lyrics but it was quite popular on the dance floor in the mid eighties. The synth riff sounds very much like FOREVER LOVERS by Italian Boys. Would you happen to remember the tune? Need it for my kid's 80's party. I am Filipino. If that helps.

thanks

Answer
Hi Aw,

I'm giving this a long shot. It would have helped if you at least have a link where i can hear the music/melody. My best guess is the song "Lifedance" by Sonia Belolo which became a popular hit in the mid-80s.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hope that it's the one you're looking for.

Regards,
