80s Dance Party!

[lacandy]

How many posts in a row can I do before it is just sad???

I love 80s music!! My kids know 80s music because we listen to the 80s station daily and I often sing along (much to their embarrassment when they have friends in the car ).

And how can there not have been any WHAM! Posted yet???

Hmmmm....

Old Wham with Bad Boys?

Or in all their Neon Glory with Wake me Up? Everyone knows when you here that...Jitterbug, Jitterbug!

Or sweet and sentimental with Last Christmas??

Well, I posted quite a bit, I'd love to see you keep the thread going! I could've done a monologue all night long. All night... hey is that an 80s song?

Pour Some Sugar On Me

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walkin next to me

One of my personal favorites!

You know I like my girls a little bit older...

“Your Love"-
The Outfield

Josie's on a vacation far away
Come around and talk it over
So many things that I want to say
You know I like my girls a little bit older
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight

I ain't got many friends left to talk to
No one's around when I'm in trouble
You know I'd do anything for you
Stay the night but keep it undercover
I just wanna use your love tonight, whoa
I don't wanna lose your love tonight

Try to stop my hands from shakin'
Somethin' in my mind's not makin' sense
It's been awhile since we were all alone
I can't hide the way I'm feelin'

As you leave me, please, would you close the door?
And don't forget what I told you
Just 'cause you're right, that don't mean I'm wrong
Another shoulder to cry upon
I just wanna use your love tonight, yeah
I don't wanna lose your love tonight
Yeah, I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight

(Lose your love)
(Lose your love)
Tonight (Lose your love)
I don't wanna lose (Lose your love tonight)
I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna (Lose your love tonight)
No, no (Lose your love tonight)
(Lose your love tonight)
No, no (I don't wanna lose your love tonight)
(Lose your love tonight)

Rad!

Way to go! You folks are awesome! Apple loves you too, because i want to go buy all the song you posted that I forgot about. Some of them have some great memories associated with them too, so I thank you for reminding me.

Just so you know, I don't care if you post 800 times here, and there's 500 duplicates. It's not the cadence that matters, it's the memory. Keep sharing those too! I have so many song I want to post, I can't get to all of them right now. Keep them coming. Honestly, I think I'll wear a thin tie and Creepers to work today!

Here's another “brat pack” hit!

“I Melt with You”
-Modern English

Men at Work, the entire first album. They rocked the awards that year

I come from a land down under . . .

 

[Blues]

A Flock Of Seagulls - I Ran

I walked along the avenue
I never thought I'd meet a girl like you
Meet a girl like you

With auburn hair and tawny eyes
The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through
Hypnotize me through

And I ran, I ran so far away
I just ran, I ran all night and day
I couldn't get away

A cloud appears above your head
A beam of light comes shining down on you
Shining down on you

The cloud is moving nearer still
Aurora Borealis comes in view
Aurora comes in view

And I ran, I ran so far away
I just ran, I ran all night and day
I couldn't get away

Reached out a hand to touch your face
You're slowly disappearing from my view
Appearing from my view

Reached out a hand to try again
I'm floating in a beam of light with you
A beam of light with you

And I ran, I ran so far away
I just ran, I ran all night and day
And I ran, I ran so far away
I just ran, I couldn't get away

Ahhhh!! Valley Girl!! Loved that movie!

I think the whole "memory" thing is exactly why I love all of these songs!

Here's a band a found because they guy I was dating left his cassette in my car and when he dumped me to get back with his ex I didn't give it back. I listened to it over and over just to spite him and fell in love with the band and in particular loved this song...

New Order - Love Vigilantes

Going to see him tonight!

Damn NY NJ crowd, WAY too SPOILED.

I've seen him half a dozen times, so I shouldn't complain.

Brian Adams rocked the 80s as well

So we get lucky with the home town boy

Yeah, Bryan Adams was great in the 80s, saw his first show at the Garden. Caught him last year doing a "bare bones" acoustic tour, best he's been in years.

In 2006 I saw Brian in Charleston SC in a very small theater. He spent most of the night taking requests. It was during his "Brain Adams 11" tour. It was an absolute blast.

This might have been a California thing, but Boomtown rats, I don't like Mondays

Inspired by this thread...I listened to the 80s station on XM this morning. I Melt With You was playing when I turned it on.

This makes me smile!

A few of my Spotify playlists are 80's songs. Although I love music from all the decades, only the 80's seems to have it's own playlists in my favorites.

Listening to this one now.

I've waited hours for this
I've made myself so sick
I wish I'd stayed asleep today
I never thought this day would end
I never thought tonight could ever be
This close to me
Just try to see in the dark
Just try to make it work
To feel the fear before you're here
I make the shapes come much too close
I pull my eyes out
Hold my breath

I love Rock'n Roll!

In the neighbor’s back yard, in their playhouse, she played this album on her cassette player. She loved Joan Jett…
It was there I had my first sexual experience. The musky smell of her excitement filled the stale air.. mmmmm. I remember it as if it were yesterday. That girl was fuck’n NAUGHTY and pretty slutty too.

So I’ve had a crush on Joan Jett ever since. She is synonymous with innocence lost to me. She's edgy too, very sexy!

"I Love Rock’n Roll"
-John Jett

Excuse me… I have to go rub this out now...haha
