80's Music.

[gazgolf1]

Being an 80's music tragic and browsing You Tube I've found some songs that 20 years ago I vomited to,danced to,air guitared to,r**ted to etc,you get my drift .
Anyway here's some songs you may have forgotten, or are trying to.

I'll admit, I don't mind some of the 80s songs. However, those have to be two of the worst.

Great work Gaz!! No bigger 80s fans than myself and my wife. Not sure what Ducky is smoking but there is no way that those are 2 of the worsts songs from the 80s I could list off heaps before you got anywhere near those 2 for bad. I admit I had't heard much of Scandal but that song is ok and as for Til Tuesday well they were a pretty huge band with Voices Carry being there best known hit of the album of the same name that I own

I have over 600 records (yes those black licorice pizzza things ) still in my garage, around 100 12" singles and 300 7" aka 45s!!!
IMO these is no better era for music than the 80s, as shown now how it is all being rehashed and topping the charts all over again. I doubt most of the youngsters even know that "Youth Group" didn't do "Forever Young" originally! Poor old Alphaville must be spewing as they have barely changed the song at all and made a few million off it.

Ohh...check it out!!! What a sweet song this was/is!!

Jaster I don't think they'd be too worried, there would have to be some royalties coming their way providing they own the rights to their own music.

Ooohhh....I'm on a roll here...

Oh Jack... so much respect lost. Kids today want to be P Diddy... Jack wants to be Billy Ocean

The website is quite good, but missing some good songs.

[gazgolf1]

I used to love this one,never heard of the band and the singer is a poser.

Jeez the recording is a bit rough.

[Fishman Dan]

I think we need to see a few Top 5's here..

Phil Rawks! I would have to say that this would have to be very close to being my favourite 80's song. Love the drums!
