I'll have to check out that movie, you have to love when they make fun of the over-the-top 80's music.
We both enjoyed it. The younger singer who asks the 80s "has been" to write him a song is an equally clichéd Britney / Taylor Swift type character. I won't spoil the end with another song but it is on Youtube.
Here is a quadruple helping of 80s goodness for @Mystic Traveller. Lets hope we can do things like this again by the end of 2021.
If anyone is wondering where the original riff came from it is Cerrone back in 1978. Because they couldn't show up for Top of the Pops we got this performance by Legs & Co instead I wonder if this sort of thing goes on in @Jorge 's lab
I can't believe I forgot to post these classics, Bob & Doug Mckenzie! I'm lucky to have this album in my collection with hit after hit.
One of my favourite tracks from Ceroc. This isn't Ceroc but I would happily go to a class if that was allowed, even if the 2021 version required 5m spacing.
in the spirit of New Year's Eve let me share with you, my friends, the tune which was sent to me by my friend many moons ago (that Dude is behind Aesma Daeva project, which I listen to pretty often). Unfortunately, YouTube does not give any justice to the actual sound, as is with most music worth listening to: I hope that when I die, on the Other Side I will be met by something like this
One of my favorite bands from the 80's, the Fixx, this video was always played late at night on MTV, more alternative than mainstream but a solid classic.
The black rectangles serve as a reminder that streaming comes and goes, but physical (be it cassette, LP, CD or a file) stays with you. Slacker — See the World (yes, I do have this track on a cassette as a part of a mix)
I love the Scorpions, driving home late night tonight with the temperatures starting to head to sub-zero one of my favorites came on. I was curious if they ever made a video and booom! Yes there's a video and it's pretty cool, two boomers make an appearance!
Let's do a two-fer for all of the new members from Germany! One of the greatest hard rock bands of the 70-80's, I saw them a million times and they always were great, not the same show, except when Klaus got up on the other two's legs, not the same scripts, but complete talent and so many songs, they all sounded good.
Listening to Radio 2, Sounds of the 80s they played this in a Megamix. Unbelievably it is forty years this week since this was released as Duran Duran's first single. I still think it is one of their best and certainly the most futuristic. Somewhere I have their first album which I bought back in the 1980s on cassette.
I love the late 70s, early 80's music where it was kind of raw and fresh. Duran Duran and a bunch of other bands hit at the same time, with MTV and all of the new FM stations it was a great time for music. On the rock side Def Leppard was getting noticed and was almost heaped in with the punk bands, little did we know they were headed for one of the longest sales streak of all time. Did Duran Duran ever play with Def Leppard over there? That would have been a cool lineup.
