For some reason, tonight I got the urge to take a walk through the 80’s. I checked out some websites that listed top 40 hits for the era. I found some old favorites. I found some stuff that I couldn’t believe I actually listened to at the time. I found some of the videos on YouTube. It was a great trip down memory lane. Let me share some of it with you.

I’m sure I’ll be adding more posts on the 80’s. I’ll also be adding some lyrics from some of my faves in my lyrics section. In the meantime, feel free to comment and add some of your faves.

I Love a Rainy Night - it’s such a beautiful sight, love to feel the rain on my face, taste the rain on my lips.

Big Shot - Ok, not quite 80’s, but I was so into Billy in the 80’s. You hadda be a Big Shot, dintcha?

Hazy Shade of Winter - Nice Bangles cover of the Simon & Garfunkel tune. Hang on to your heart, my friend.

Roll With It - When life is too much, Roll with it, baby

I totally loved Level 42 in the 80’s. I still have one of their albums on vinyl somewhere.

Lessons in Love - I’m not proud, I was wrong, and the truth is hard to take.

Something About You - But making mistakes is one of life’s imperfections…

Running in the Family - Our dad would send us to the room, he’d be the voice of doom…

A little Georgia Satellites…

Keep Your Hands to Yourself - Got a li’l change in my pocket goin’ jang-a-lang-a-lang…

And who could forget Peter Gabriel?

SledgeHammer - You could have a bumper car bumping, this amusement never ends.

Somebody’s Watching Me - I’m just an average man, with an average life. I work from 9 to 5. Hey, hell, I pay the price…

Who Can It Be Now? - Who can it be knocking at my door. Go away. Don’t come ’round here no more!

Down Under - Do you come from a land down under?

Abracadabra - I heat up, I can’t cool down.
