Easily the 80's , and I'm going to tell you why

July 30, 2025 01:28PM


The 80's , we had the best of both worlds

I was a MTV junkie , couldn't get enough

and I'm sure when most people think of the 80's , it was New Wave , and Hair Bands

but................

the 80's also had soooooooooo many hold over artists from the 70's

so , it was the best of both worlds for me , I liked all the new wave stuff coming in , Duran Duran , U2 , etc

I was in my 20's , in the 80's , but , I cut my teeth on music from the 70's , and the 80's was full of bands and Performers I grew up on the in the 70's

Foreigner , Aerosmith , KIZZ , RUSH , Van Halen , Heart , Journey , ZZ Top , AC/DC , Genesis , Queen , Ozzy Osbourne , all had huge hits in the 80's

so did Elton John , Robert Plant , Rod Stewart , Bruce Springsteen , David Bowie , Michael Jackson , Don Henley , John Fogerty , heck , even the Rolling Stones were still pumping out hits in the 80's

the 80's was like 2 decades rolled up into one

80's music , the best way to describe it , was just fun

  For me, the 60s, 70s and the 80s can be wrapped into one package.

ferragamo79164August 10, 2025 02:05PM

waterfield183August 01, 2025 08:21PM

  Oooh, I'm gonna check that out for sure

  Makes me SICK what has become of Music. We debate the 60s, 70s and 80s. Take your pick!

Ramgator113August 10, 2025 02:20PM

  I don't have that problem.....

JamesJM107August 11, 2025 06:30AM
