Anyone up for an 80's music nostalgia thread?

[Sparklingbrook]

I am pretty much Duran Duranned out from my previous thread but have been looking on You Tube and pretending it's the 80s again.

I give you and for starters.

Anyone beat them for 80s fabulousness?

Einsten a go go

I loved five star

Marilyn - cor he was a one hit wonder wasn't he ?

I wanted to add Chesney Hawkes but it was 1991...

Wonderlife Life - Black

(no need to run and hide , it's a wonderful, wonderful life)

Sorrel, when was the wedding? While Brother Beyond were famous or years later? (please tell me it was years later! )

Aww thanks 4.

Not music but the trailer to the best 80s film ever made, and my favourite of all time .

Loved Black!

the first record I ever bought

Oh black, wonderful life

I used to go to a local tv show to watch it being recorded (like TOTP but not!) & met so many of the groups, singers mentioned on here. Brings back lots of memories of lovely, carefree, happy times

I was in my element in the 80s - I spend most Friday nights youtubing 80s crap

You're welcome sparkling. And about last night, also fabulous. The outsiders is one of my all time faves (& not just for that shower scene ), but I also love st Elmos fire & about last night. Have you seen masquerade?

This song is very bittersweet, memories of a very special friend. We used to lie on a mattress in his room listening to Talk Talk with his lava lamp. He was killed in a car crash a few years later. A friend had passed her driving test a few days before and was driving a Metro with five of them in it. The car turned over and they were all killed.......

4forkssake my embarrassing claim to fame is that I vomited on 'Black's' (Colin Verncombe) lovely leather brogues in a club in Liverpool in 1988

I used to love this

Loving this thread. Another great reminder from Pat Fenis.

I'm not sure if our wedding can still go ahead after DP uttered the words "Adam Ant was rubbish"

The sex god that was Michael Hutchence

this brings back memories of being 15

4forkssake It must have been around 87/88. I can't remember tbh, I was very drunk and there were a lot of young sailors around

That was my brother's first single Shaky!

It was all Prince for me and anyone connecrted to him.
The Time, Wendy and Lisa, Sheila E, Taja Seville etc.
I spent a lot of time in purple satin shirts

St elmos fire is a tune and a half and almost every song on smash hits '88

Me and a group of friends watched Purple Rain on VHS every Saturday for about a year!

Oh you have got me started now, marys prayer is another classic :)
