Walk this way - Run DMC/Aerosmith

 

[renard_ruse]

A toss up between Heaven is a Place on Earth by Belinda Carlisle, Vacation by the Go-Go's, or The Sentinel by Judas Priest (top heavy metal song).

So many other great ones though, I'm so glad I was young in the 80s. Even genres and groups I hated at the time, like The Cure or Depeche Mode, I hated that shit in high school, now I totally appreciate it.

I actually went to Run DMC when they played in San Diego, probably in 87. Me and my friends pretty much went as a joke, we were white rockers who generally hated rap. We thought it would be kind of funny. It was actually a great show though. Rap really wasn't that bad in those days.

Funniest thing my nerdy friend Ted got felt up in the parking lot by a female cop after the show during a pat down. She fondled his wiener through his pants. Too funny.

Run DMC was a surprise, Kid Rock opened for them... We were on our way down and a group of teens pulled up to our limo and wanted us to open our window...probably thought we were famous people inside lol poor kids...they were screaming about going to a concert to see Kid Rock...they could not have cared less about Aerosmith...silly kids

Africa by Toto is amazing.

ROFL. I have not heard a penis referred to "wiener" in about a decade. To funny!

The 80's were the best decade of the 20th century bar none.

Oh, and you can understand why "obsession" reminds me of this girl.

Too varied a decade in music styles, I think. Impossible to pick one song.

Some of my favs:

Mickey - Toni Basil
With Or Without You - U2
Paradise City - Guns N' Roses
West End Girls - Pet Shop Boys
It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) - R.E.M.
Promises, Promises - Naked Eyes
I.G.Y. (What a Beautiful World) - Donald Fagen
Alone - Heart
Mad World - Tears for Fears
How Soon is Now? - The Smiths

FOr me 80's music was really all about MTV. The stories they told to go with the songs. The music was awesome, but for those of us old enough to remember when MTV played music it was the visuals.To this day when Ihear some songs teh music vids play tough my head. For instance "Take on me" or "Money For Nothing" Or Flock of Seagulls. (The hair.. who oh why the hair!!!)

Real World is the worst thing to happen to human society as a whole. That show killed MTV and spawned the crap they call TV now. SMH
