| Shadow1980 said: I keep forgetting there's so many millennials here at VGC. A lot of what I'm seeing didn't come out until I was in high school, some of it even later than that. As for me, my favorite stuff growing up was anything by Michael Jackson. I also enjoyed Phil Collins and Peter Gabriel. Back in '88 two of my favorite songs were "Kokomo" by the Beach Boys and "Don't Worry, Be Happy" by Bobby McFerrin (perhaps not coincidentally, both were on the soundtrack to the movie Cocktail). I would ask my mom to play them on the jukebox whenever we went to Waffle House. But honestly there's just so much good music from the 80s that picking an absolute favorite today is hard to do. *sigh* I really miss the 80s. Makes me wish I was a kid again. |
That's just because you were a kid in the 80's!
The 80's were awesome though, great growing up with MJ, Madonna, REM
Oh another favorite Hotel California
Got to turn that up, ugh makes me emotional :)
Guns and roses, Prince, Bowie, Queen, Abba, Meat loaf paradise by the dashboard light!
Of course not all was peachy, as the threat of nuclear war was ever present
Doe maar, before the bomb
And the Beatles were just coming out on that new fangled piece of magic, called a CD player. Great times.
