Sajtrolo. i know you what you mean. i can't believe how crappy MTV has become. when it first came out, it so exciting & gave birth to a whole new aspect of music through the visuals. now MTV is all teen "reality" shows of spolied wanna-be famous brats. where's the music? the rare times they do play videos, it seems like it's all geared towards money, "bling", sex, etc... granted, there were aspects of that in some videos in the 80's, but most of the videos in the 80's were fun,cool & creative!
cont...funny how you mentioned VH1, cuz i remember when it first came out, it was considered lame & for "old" people. but now i'd rather watch VH1 over EmptyV anyday! & if that makes me old, so be it, cuz MTV is just complete trash now. i miss the fun & care-free 80's videos from the likes of Cyndi Lauper, The Go-Go's, J. Geils Band, etc.,or the ones who were so creative, like MJ's "Thriller" & "Take On me" by A-Ha. in the 80's, it was all about "I Want My MTV". But now I want my VH1, lol
"that's the police.. never heard of that group? " WTF Where the hell are you getting The Police? I ask the question back to you.......Ever heard of The Police?
love em come on elieen, and video killed the radio star are my faves. and i ran is my ring tone. don't liston to these idot who don't know good music when they here it!!!!
oh man the outfield! reminds me of going to drug free youth to youth parties. of course we all had to get real stoned first. hey lay off. it was a way out of the house!
Props on putting the song "Your Love" by The Outfield in here. I've been watching a lot of these top 80's songs videos on here and noticed that no one puts "I Can Dream About You" by Dan Hartman in their lists. I've always thought that was a great song from the 80's. It seems to get overlooked. You don't hear it much anymore. Very catchy tune.
When I first met my girlfriend we used to dance to all these songs in the disco's. Then one day I came home from work and found a note from her saying she was going away with my best mate Dave and our relationship was over. I was absolutely gutted. You would have thought after all these years I would have got over it but I haven't, I still miss Dave as much now as I did then. Great mate and drinking buddy ;-)
my favorite 80's bands are, REO speedwagon, warrant, bad company, .38 special, bad company, europe, boston, blondie, cyndi lauper, damn yankee's and many more, but this is a great list
por favor es el grupo numero tres de este video, alguien se apiade y me digan como se llama para buscarlo, a mi mujer y a mi nos gusta muchisimo, gracias de antemano de un peruano venezolano
excelente recopilacion, me puedes decir como se llama el grupo de la braga donde la muchacha se va con la otra y esta un grupo de chicos vestidos con braga blue jeans con la parte de arriba del pecho, te lo agradesco si alguien me lo puede decir, me encanta este grupo pero no se como se llaman
Michael Jackson wanted to have able to write a song as Video killed the radio Star.
He tried that one of the buggles friends, Thomas Dolby, who collaborated with horn & downes before buggles, produced one record for him to have this sound but friend, this sound it´s the beginning of technopop and mr. Jackson was in another wave ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Your number one, a flock of seagulls is a group which continues the buggles´s stella.
