We're having quite a few gang-related shootings in our city lately - I so wish they could just "break dance" fight instead. :-)

My boyfriend and I are obsessed with so-bad-they're-good 80s and early 90s movies/videos, so I've got some good ones stored up! Just you wait until tomorrow!! lol.

I think we should also all just name one thing we miss/love about the 80s.

today mine is - the freedom to wear WHATEVER you wanted and have it be accepted - today's fashion is so rigid!

~choirgirl~

I had a DeBarge poster on my wall. LOL

One thing I miss about the 80s is the hair! It was so crazy.

I heard this song by One to One (Hold Me Now) when I was in the car last week and remembered how much I LOVED IT! I cannot find it anywhere but on you tube

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbGdVyz-MTg

love it!!

Good morning 80s fans!!

LMAO. I work out to this song.

Everytime I watch it though, it reminds me of an episode of Beavis and Butthead...they were commenting on the video (and acting stupid, of course).

HAHAHA...they always freaked me out! :lol3:

One of the best 80s songs ever!

There are a lot of 80s songs covered by very different bands now. My nieces and nephews are usually completely unaware that it's a cover.

Then there's the current cover (or partial use) of "You Spin Me Round," which just disturbs me.

I KNOW!!!!! I was sooo mad when I heard that too - like, just don't TOUCH that song people! And such a bad version of it!

~Choirgirl~

I agree choirgirl and julie, that song is ridiculous!

choirgirl that was a good one, too....

LOL, that leotard!

Have you heard the remake of Africa (Toto) done by Karl Wolf? Not bad (the musical remake, not the video :D).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lOoId21B1Q

OK, Carol, I couldn't listen to more than 20 seconds of that! :lol: Then again, I never loved the song back then!

:lol: I LOVED Safety Dance! Until they overplayed it...

my thoughts on that video:
1) He looks really cute dancing around in that black top and beige shorts

2) I would like the body of the girl in the yellow bikini dancing around the fire please

3) not a bad remake of the song, however, he's got a lot of b*lls to do that considering I've never heard of him before!!!

Another thing I miss about the 80s = my "Madonna" outfit. I had a great outfit: a red off-the-shoulder top, black tight tap pants, black sandals that tied all the way up my leg, tons of black jelly bracelets and a black scarf tied in my hair. Good times.

... and that double wrapped belt. I had a couple of those :)

nothing says 80's better than limahl. Bad dancing, spiked hair, stonewashed flood jeans and rolled up sleeves. Plus a catchy 80's beat.

Can you imagine them discussing the concept of that video?
"Ok so, imagine this - you are standing on a stage of squares of light with smoking curling seductively around your legs"

"Right, right....am I dancing?"

"Well, not so much dancing, as moving your body to the beat in a very slow exaggerated manner."

"Right, right, love it, love it.....and then what happens?"

"Well....nothing! For three whole minutes...nothing!"

"I love it! I'm in!"

LOL @ choirgirl!!

kaebea-you forgot about the smoke machine, that is soooo 80s!

WOW. I used to love Garbage Pail Kids, LOL. Do you guys remember how much "controversy" was caused when they came out?

Pales in comparison to some of the stuff I see marketed for children today.

I love the garbage pail kids too! lol I think I had all the cards and stickers.
I remember when cabbage patch kids were hard to get. And people were paying big bucks for them. My mom went nuts trying to get my sis and I the cornsilk hair cabbage patch kids. I still have mine. I also have my pound puppy and my cry baby doll which still works.

Squeak, I still have my Cabbage Patch Kids, too!! I had 3 of them!

Oh, here's one of my favorites!

I loved that. I was back in the 80's for a couple of minutes. Loved that it ended with The Breakfast Club. That is me and my brother's movie.

Im so joining this thread. Im all 80s all the time I will give you all something great everyday heres my first.

OMG the 80s so fondly remembered, MTV on a sat while mom and dad worked , calling friends up to talk about the videos , watching Michael Jackson rule the videos and radio, playing the Atari,listening to Kasey Kasems top forty , Ronald Regan, Star Wars, etc why can't things be like they were then.

I've been watching all of the videos posted. I am an 80's Kid and proud of it!!! You know, it's kinda scary when you remember when MTV started and was extremely excited and that your parents were too lame to understand it all. :lol: By the way, I am in LOVE with George Michael all over again! And yes, I just cried watching One More Try.
