I know what you meant, but the only Knopfler songs I really like are Lover Over Gold, Telegraph Road, Brothers in Arms. I've never been a Dire Straits fan. As much as I like 80s music, there's plenty of popular songs from the decade I always disliked, e.g. Walk of Life and Money for Nothing, plus many of the songs in this 100 greatest songs poll posted by MH in the OP: http://www.antimusic.com/news/06/oct/27.shtml . #1 for example, obviously one of the most popular song from the 80s, is a song I hate with passion. The 80s had lots of great songs and albums, but it can't hold a candle against the 60s and 70s imo. |
That list is full of crap. I think that there's not a single song from Bon Jovi that I like, and please, the only song from Queen is the one with David Bowie?
What about "Radio GaGa", "A kind of Magic", "Who wants to live forever" or "I want to break free"? (Bohemian Rhapsody is from the 70s)
I disagree about the 80s being worst than the 60s or the 70s. Every decade has good excellent songs. The only "problem" is that since the 80s the number of bands that can publish a song/album has grown a lot, and there's more crap. But there are still excellent songs.
Please excuse my bad English.
