The ultimate 80's revival movie: The Wedding Singer with A. Sandler and D. Barrrymore. Soundtrack has all the songs you remember like Kajagoogoo, Culture Club, etc.

Here's a tape I'm ashamed to admit I had: Rick Astley. :lol:


There is nothing wrong with Rick, in fact I recently got his Greatest Hits CD!

HS class of 82, College class of 86. We were billed as the first "computer literate" class :lol:

All the hairspray we used on our Big 80s hair! We must be the reason for the hole in the ozone layer! And can you say EYELINER? Yikes. I think I went thru a black kohl pencil a month!!

Lately, Ive listened almost exclusively to 80s music. Loved it all! DuranDuran, Talking Heads, Police, Devo, Flock of Seagulls, Pat Bennitar, Cyndi Lauper...the list goes on and on...

Anyone have an all time fave video from the 80s? Mines Boys of Summer :)

I can dance if I want to....

Every time Martha Quinn played that video she would call them "Men Sans Chappeau" (not sure about the spelling here) It used to make me buggy! That and them calling her MCQ or The Mighty Quinn. Ooohh..I just didnt like Martha Quinn I guess. Although I adored Alan Hunter ;)

I liked Alan Hunter the best also. Not only because he was sooooo cute, but he's also from here. :) I see him around town sometimes and he still looks the same. lol

The Love Theme from that movie was big when I was a bridesmaid in my cousins wedding. The keyboard player in the band was HOT and he played it for me :kiss: It was a 'family' band, and the father, who was the leader, came up to me and said "I would love to have you in my family!" I hid for the rest of the night :lol:

For those of you who were too young to remember the '80's, keep in mind, there were two '80's: "the real '80's" and "the MTV '80's".

If you went out to particularly trendy clubs, you might have seen someone dressed up like Madonna, but, most people out on the street looked very similar to what they look like now.
