Thanks for taking an interest, Cloud. You should listen to groovy, Psychedelic Fuzz Rock and Cosmic Doom music too.

I am glad we have something (groovy Psychedelic Fuzz Rock and Cosmic Doom music) in common. I'm not sure if I like it. all

I think I need a deeper algorithm.

I've just thought of something that I missed out that is a nice cheesy song...

Making Your Mind Up! XD

Not a favourite but something to dance to when you're a little too hyped up at a party. Or at least something I've danced to in the past (minus any skirt pulling off, of course). I have to say though that I can't stand any other Bucks Fizz records. X|

Also can't forget about Oingo Boingo (Danny Elfman is a god!)

Hmmm... cheesy, huh? How 'bout Drama Rama? Or even a great prelude group to the 90's industrial like Machines of Loving Grace. :)

Of course there were other, darker influences like early NIN and Aphex Twins. :evilblk

Ahhh... good times (and great thread). :wink:

Well in the late eighties I was going through my angry teen phase and I was listening to Grindcore (at the time it was called UK Hardcore), lots of noisy bands like Extreme Noise Terror, Rhetoric, Dr and the Crippens and Chaos UK.

But it was the early eighties that had some great songs,

Down Under by Men at work
Ghostbusters by Ray Parker Junior
Ghost Town by The Specials

Lots and Lots of Madness (yes I did have the Madness man logo shaved into my hair at one point) :D

and practically anything by The Jam

"Take on Me"... (can she hit the low note at the beginning... can he get squeaky enough for the high note at the end...) Whee! good times.
Take on Me is a great 80's song. :wink:


I can't belive no one brought up how awesomely cool the video was.


"These Dreams" by Heart gets my vote.

Heh... heh... we should talk :) :gossip: Of course, 70's was my decade for teen angst, high school and college, so I come at it from a slightly different perspective, but still. :)
