I love this thread, haven't listened to 80s music in ages. I'm up to Human League so far

I also loved Cyndi Lauper and Madonna's first album. I used to dress like her but went of her the more I got to know her Grin.
I used to daydream i was living in the Bronx break dancing for a living. I had visions of me joining the Rock Steady Crew Blush
