ShibbNani Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Which one is your favorite? And no, "the hairstyles from A Flock of Seagulls" is NOT an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacob Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 I voted U2. They ARE the rock band of the 80's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sternly Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 U is far the best! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sternly Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 well my intention was to write U2! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityandColour Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 U2, but what is this "...ech" with van halen, and by the way, how the fuck can you not put INXS, Tears For Fears and Queen on an 80's band pull? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShibbNani Posted July 6, 2003 Author Share Posted July 6, 2003 INXS aren't on there for the same reason that The Fixx, The Cure, The Smiths, A-Ha, Poison, Twisted Sister, Madonna, Hall and Oats, The Alan Parsons Project, Blondie, Soft Cell, ABC, Run-D.M.C., Tiffany, Suzanne Vega, Eurythmics, The Buggles, Culture Club, Tears for Fears, Peter Gabriel, Genesis, The Police, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Asia, Dexy's Midnight Runners, Oingo Boingo, Thompson Twins, Whitesnake, Robert Palmer, Wang Chung, and Fine Young Cannibals aren't on there: It took up too much time to create the selectors. If my connection speed wasn't so crappy, they would all be on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShibbNani Posted July 6, 2003 Author Share Posted July 6, 2003 Hall and Oates?...... I used to like them, but then I was stuck in a car on the way to Arizona with only them playing. For about 2 hours. Nonstop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
