Hey--nobody has mentioned Phil Collins. Remember Against All Odds? Sussudio (sp?)? Billy Don't You Lose My Number?

Not to mention Genesis--I Can Feel It, Comin' In the Air Tonight --yeah, totally sure THAT is not the title....

Dh insists on a no-Phil-Collins household...sigh...but I DO like the "Against All Odds" I must admit...

What about the Pretenders? Gawd, they were awesome...Chrissie Hynde for President!

"Voices Carry" by something Tuesday. Aimee Mann was the lead singer. Love the hair style in her video.

Hey librarymom, T

In regards to your earlier 'proposal', I noticed you didn't respond ~ did I scare you off ? Was it something I said?

I never liked Phil Collins until I got pregnant! Before that I thought I was above his Su-su-suddiory! But once I was pregnant I would go batty everytime he came on the radio...especially "Easy Lover". I would get so into that song that DH would start to look scared! I went through the same thing with Billy Joel. Not preg anymore and I still love them both. I think it's permanent!

Oooh, 'Till Tuesday! Does anyone know/like their song "Coming Up Close"? It's fantabulous. Not your typical '80s song for sure.

Yes, The Pretenders! Especially their first album and even more especially "Tattooed Love Boys" & "Precious". How much @ss does she kick on those songs?!?!

Dallas JUST GOT AN 80's RADIO STATION!!! Driving to work this morning I heard Bowie's "Young Americans" and "I would walk 500 miles" (I think that was The Procaimers?) It almost makes me sad that I only have a 1.5 mile/2 song commute...

but-not-THAT-sad-ingly,
Allison

I can't leave this thread alone! One of my favorite '80s dance tracks is "Dancing in Heaven (Orbital Be Bop)" by Q-Feel featured in my favorite movie all time (when I was 10) "Girls Just Want To Have Fun"

"Are you ready?
Here we go!
Slow
Slow
Quick Quick
Slow"
