[MUSIC] The 80's thread .... (links only please, no full video screens)

[Teen Age Riot]

Most of the 80's was shite and I listened to nothing but reggae and funkadelic (until 1988 natch). But in 1981 we had this. And Imma keep posting it until some cunt says they love it too.

Live in 2009. So fight me.

^ that wuz well gay, like.

The 80's fucking owned for tunes ... admittedly it was more of a singles than an albums decade, but I love both formats. So thar. 80's pop tunes for the win.

Devo - Whip It

80's Rawk ... Peace Sells is, and will forever be, my epitaph.

Megadeth - Peace Sells (But Who's Buying?)

What do you mean, "I don't believe in God"?
I talk to him everyday.
What do you mean, "I don't support your system"?
I go to court when I have to
What do you mean, "I can't get to work on time"?
I got nothing better to do.
And, what do you mean, "I don't pay my bills"?
Why do you think I'm broke? Huh?

If there's a new way,
I'll be the first in line.
But it better work this time.
What do you mean, "I hurt your feelings"?
I didn't know you had any feelings.
What do you mean, "I ain't kind"?
Just not your kind.

What do you mean, "I couldn't be the President
Of the United States of America"?
Tell me something, it's still "We the people," right?
If there's a new way
I'll be the first in line
But it better work this time
Can you put a price on peace?

Peace,
Peace sells,
Peace,
Peace sells,
Peace sells, but who's buying?

^^^ Sooo, sooo good

As a child of the 60s and 70s, I thought the 80s were a big pile of wank as far as music went. But when I compare that decade to the absolute dross passed off as music these days, then I have to reconsider.

Here's an absolute gem from 1981.

The Cardiacs - Is this the life:

Take that back you bitch!!!

Take that back you bitch!!!

I think I did with my following sentence. At the time I hated everything about the 80s (those fuckin clothes, that fuckin hair, those miserable whiney student cunting bands), but as I say, with the benefit of hindsight, there was a lot of good stuff if you looked beyond fuckin Banarama...

Bananarama is amazing. As is Hazel Dean and other Hi-NRG type tat.

As is Steps btw.
