Hi great grandpa

Watch it young man, i can do magic with my cane !!
Almost reaching mid 30s, i just feel i was a dumbass for not having taking full advantage of the 80s&90s ... what a time to be alive!
Besides the good and bad memories, all that remains is the lesson...
Cheers

OK gramps

 

[SoberAwakening]

No Hall & Oates?

 

[Swiftie]

Your poll sucks....You left off so many great bands.

Guns and Roses
Van Halen
U2
Journey

 

[ChucksGlassJaw]

Depeche Mode a pop band? Go fuck yourself.

 

[Easy The Great]

Hall and Oates got left off, shit poll

 

[loyalyolayal]

I can't pick one. But I might give it to tears for fears as I don't get tired listening to their songs on repeat. But a flock of seagulls one finger of doom synth playing is awesome too. On the strength of one song alone, I might give it to a-ha. Most catchiest intro and goat music video even by today's standards.

 

[Lovestorm]

Tears For Fears are magic.

 

[sleepwalk]

Genesis and Duran Duran on a completely different level than most of these acts. I can see acts like U2 or Bon Job I left out because of later successes but The Police need to be in there as "80s band."

 

[MTT]

Viable arguments for 1/4th the list. I would add Talk Talk and make the point that for several of those groups, the 80s pop era was their worst. Talk Talk goes on to put out 2 incredible albums and 1 GOAT contender after their pop run.

 

[Steve-French]

The Cars, Dire Straits, and Men at Work are the only bands I like on that list. I was more about the metal in the 80's.

 

[Sir Galahad]

I liked The Cars a lot growing up,
I think Relax is the most 80s song...

^ and the movie this is from, Body Double, might be the most 80s movie

They had so many memorable songs.

 

[ReAnimator Reagan]

The Cars, Dire Straits, and Men at Work are the only bands I like on that list. I was more about the metal in the 80's.

Yeah, I was into Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, Misfits, and Metallica back then. Although now I like a lot of the 80s cheese.

They had so many memorable songs.

This is also one of the best 80s songs

 

[ookii]

Among them DD and Depeche Mode made the 80s

 

[ookii]

You missed INXS

Probably their best songs are pre-Listen Like Thieves period

 

[Philo-Publius]

I remember the 80's to be the best decade for pop music. The poll consists of groups that made an impact during that time period. Sorry if your favorite artists didn't make the poll.

There's obviously quite a view missing from the list. I voted Genesis, but The Outfield comes to mind.

 

[Hollywood Jack]

No Hall & Oates?

Hall and Oates got left off, shit poll
