David Lee is quite a character. I always loved the opening to his "Yankee Rose" video:

Ahhh, a thread I can sink my teeth into. Much like Uncle Rico, I'm still stuck in 1983.

Some great selections already. Rack's Poison numbers are very strong. Talk Dirty to me was always one of my favorites.

Here's some selections from my own personal listening list...


Best song of the 80s? Heck, probably one of the best songs of all-time.

Sadly, time has not treated Madonna well as she now looks like an alien lizard, but back in the great 80s she was a naughty little hottie. :p:

Saw them in concert this summer... Foreigner still rocks!

OK, I should probably keep some of these to myself. :D

Who can forget Alphaville? You remember Alphaville, don't you? Well, even if you don't, you probably remember hearing this gem back in the day.

Yes, I was a huge Depeche Mode fan in the 80s... and in the 90s... ok, I still listen to them.

"You know how I know you're gay? You like the Pet Shop Boys." :D

Thought I would add my 2 cents

Can't figure out how to embed the video
 
so is this an 80s rock thread or pop thread?

anyway. My 3 yr old son and I were just playing the guitar! I was playing him some of this....

[youtube]w_xUDFMv94s[/youtube]

and then I played him some of this...A great great great 80s ballad.
[youtube]rIbaMrFTS-U&feature=related[/youtube]

and we also played some of this, the reason I learn to play the guitar when I was a kid!!
[youtube]k99h5aikc4g[/youtube]

I could go on and on and on and on and on...with the 80s stuff, much like Danny white. Although I like alot of new stuff and loved the 90s as well.....the alphaville forever young is greatness.....

here is one more...another great guitar song that I find myself playing when I pick up the guitar...
this features a younger tawny kittaen, she got in the video because she knew the king, robin crosby and used to date him.

In terms of lyrics, it's hard to beat this classic from XTC:

Cinderella is one of my all time favorite bands. Very extremely underrated IMO.


Night Songs is a kick arse song too.
