chuck kottke Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I keep thinking about the Pet Shop Boys, and Billy Idol.. But then there's Dire Straits! U2 of course, & Devo were funny! God, guys with upside-down flower pots on their heads - that takes the cake!:laugh3: And what about Blondie? Madonna? AC/DC? Springsteen? Billy Joel? So many, it's hard to recall them all!:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenG Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Call me unqualified, but im too busy exploring the 90's (as a period I didnt live though musically) to move down to the 80's just yet. But heres some ideas. New Years Day - U2 (I dont think the Joshua Tree is their best album, i dunno. War does more for me. Every song on war is brilliant, its too bad theres only 6 of them. I guess the Joshua Tree is the better album tho, just I prefer to listen to war. Anyhow... R.E.M were consistantly great though the 80's and Pink Floyd had a few moments of greatness, alongside a few momentary lapses of mediocrety (see what I did there) <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> A personal favorate of the 80's. Joy Division were another band in that decade. Ian Kurtis (the singer) moped his way though a lot of hits over 2 albums. Not sure what I make of the singing (or lack of) <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> Im gunna omit the Smiths because I know nothing about them (but i will pick up something by them soon) Then the Stone Roses, hailed by some to be one of the best british bands ever, I dissagree, they only made 2 albums, and most bands have at least 2 great albums behind them. Great band tho, if you don't go and see them live. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBup1RXOSt8&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBup1RXOSt8&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> And this was the best of the singles they released in that decade. Made of Stone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badlydrawngirl Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 The 80's had TONS of great (and not-so-great) music. New Order - Blue Monday and True Faith. FANTASTIC songs U2 - Just most of their stuff from the 80's was brilliant. I didn't like Angel of Harlem though, was that the 80's? I can't remember!

ZooTelevision Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 and nothing else compares!!! oh no nooothing else compares to this!!!
