I loved the eighties and the following two tracks really stick in my mind

Classics!

This tread reminds me of watching MTV USA with the late great Vincent Hanley, Good times

Wuthering Heights was originally released in 1978 but was re-recorded in 1986 for Bush's greatest-hits album "The Whole Story".

Born in the USA was not one of my favourite songs but it was a massive hit.

Fantastic tune, as was this one at the same concert

This was probably it:

It was during the good-to-be-miserable phase of teenage life I guess. Brings back bitter-sweet memories.

This one I also liked for similar reasons, but I only really got fond of it when David Gray made it his:

Wow, not a mention of a single MJ tune from his undisputed best period, Thriller (1982) and Bad (1987). He was untouchable in the 80's.

Billie Jean ftw.

The 80's for me is amazing cheesy ballads, lyrics with feeling and wailing guitar solos. Man I wish I was in the 80's.

Hope my embedding works. Few classics here, Belinda is still a cracking looking woman. I saw her in Killarney last year, she's got one hell of a voice...

"Into the Grove" by Madonna, was at the peak of her powers back then and this song is pop perfection.

chalkie 501 · 11-09-2011 09:32PM

What a decade of music
nearly everything released by U2(except for most of Rattle and hum)
where do you start with music by Queen...
Frankie goes to hollywood....brilliant
The Waterboys-the whole of the moon-an all time classic
INXS,Midnight oil,Simple minds all great bands.

has anyone mentioned milli vanilli yet:p
