RE: 80's song thread/best and worst
A favorite.




heh heh....Gotta love those barely talented Prince proteges from the 80's. Couldn't sing. Or dance. 
But, goddammit, they were HOT and they TRIED like hell.

Anyone notice how some of these are applicable to today's goings on?

 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Tom Cruise with a leather jacket wincing his eyes in front of an American flag with a blonde girl on his shoulder, this is the 80s as far as I'm concerned.





People listened to these songs while getting the job done and making money in the 80s




Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

At the top of the heap. Or damn near it.

Both of those are on my shit-list for the decade ... lordy, I hate 'em.

"We Built this City"

Both of these are, too.

Funny thing though -- in their guise as the Jefferson Starship, they opened the 80s with a couple of cool songs, "Stranger" and "Find Your Way Back". Odd how they took a colossal shit in only five years ... I hope they got some good scrilla for their souls.

I'm not sure how I forgot this one, but it is certainly one of my favorites from the decade -- between Hutchens's singing and the way the saxophone tears into the solo, the message of the song is delivered perfectly.

See, I quite like Centrefold and almost anything from Bowie.

I agree with you on the other two.

On my "good" list I will also add:

Bruce Springsteen
Billy Joel
Cyndi Lauper
Dire Straits (until Calling Elvis)
Genesis

And a number of others.

I'll come back to you with a shit list.

They're there, I just try not to remember them...
