How about Fine Young Cannibals? IMO one of the better 80's bands that was on the radio a lot, plus Roland Gift has a fantastic voice.

Also featuring two members of The Beat.

Is this thread celebrating music released in the 80s by bands/artists that started out in the 60s/70s only or celebrating all music released in the 80s?
Celebrating anything released between 1/1/80 and 12/31/89.

I will accept no new-wave bashing.
The Kajagoogoo fan club meets in South Shields. :shifty:
They're too shy shy to meet in person, however.

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread

Already covered in the 90's: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/5b/Eight_heads_in_a_duffel_bag.jpg I can't believe the odd, destructive career choices Pesci made. Not sure what was more surprising, that Joe Pesci made a lounge album in the late 90s including a rap song: https://www.youtube....

Re: The Trump observations thread

Once again, caught staging an audience reaction. Kind of long, but worth watching all the way through. https://www.instagram.com/p/C5ymTXnRnMc/?hl=en The best part of that interaction was when he ordered "30 milkshakes and some chicken..." Seth Myers had a field day with the clip. He's like how do ...

Re: Totally Radical! The All Encompassing Thread of 80s Awesomeness

Hello, I'm not sure how much this thread is celebrating cheese-iness or is sarcastic, but the 80's (1984) also birthed Stop Making Sense, the best concert film ever. I think it's a little of both. I started it because I have a sincere appreciation for the decade, though acknowledging that the 80s (...

Re: Totally Radical! The All Encompassing Thread of 80s Awesomeness

And 100% of Clash II's! No question, the decade had its share of atrocities. I think there's maybe a case for saying the good parts were particularly good and the bad parts particularly bad, though that's more idle notion than scientific reasoning. That's where I lean. Moreover, the stuff closer to...

Re: Totally Radical! The All Encompassing Thread of 80s Awesomeness

A little bit of both. I can supply content on the awful part. :approve: More so than WWK's efforts? Mine will be intentional. I don't know if any one decade is worse than another but the 80s were pretty horrible in my mind. I was able to ignore the 90s fairly easy but 80s crap and there was so much...
