1985: Parents were gone for the weekend. I had a few friends over for a private party. We played sweet music, had a few beers, and passed the pipe with cannabis.
Strangely enough, there wasn't a lot of craziness like the movies portray. We simply enjoyed each others company, good conversation...

Sweet song, sends me back to the late '80's.
"...I'm only interested in paradise, I'm only working, working, working, working, working, working, working so hard..."
I still carrying that theme in my life. The song has aged well.
Even though I like most of their work well into the '90's, their...

Being a Californio native with Chumash cousins, it's sweet to hear a new anthem for California.
Even though it's been a long road from the 10 to 20,00+ years of indigenous people living here, the Spanish and Russian presence, the independence of Mexican and Native American period (Mexican Alta C...

Yep, this is probably one of Human League's best songs.
Although the"Dare" album was well known, the previous work was a lot more creative. I followed them up to "Hysteria", but it seemed to go downhill from there.
I liked Phil Oakley's low voice, it always harmonized well with the synthesizer...

Nice to know the music inspires beyond the "80's crowd".
Check out Tones on Tail as well. Daniel Ash was very creative in those days. Over the years, the cutting-edge expression seemed to wane. Even with Love and Rockets, it became less "the whole album" that inspired and reduced...

I haven't heard this song for a few decades, the intro alone brought a few tears.
Hyaena is Siouxsie and the Banshees best album. The Creatures "Feast" is also a phenomenal album.
There is music from the 80's that touched the souls a handful of people, but there were peers back then who "didn'...

THE best album of The Cure. This particular song is shamanic work captured.
Back in my teen years, 1980's, this was one song to listen too and psychically thrash out angst.
Robert Smith is often limited to his "look", singing style, and popular videos. This song reveals his guitar abiliti...

Out on the dance floor in the late 1980's...
Friends ranging from ages 14-18, dancing as a group while we each did our own thing. Colorful lights brightening our smiles and feeling good. Man, it would be sweet to just experience that for one more night.

There's a lot about the 1980's that feel like a private experience for those who were in the middle of it all and just enjoying the sights and sounds.
Watching this video in 2012, it seems a culture of it own expressed higher aspirations in music and poetry. Thankfully, it's been captured on vi...

When I was 14 (1984), I finally came across this song. Hypnotized me with a feeling of hope and enthusiasm; just makes you want to dance.
Reminds me of the whole "electronic/synth" sound that was so new at the time. I used to listen to Tangerine Dream's "Stratosphere" when I was six (after w...
Nice to see this song online. I was just listening to "Taste the Floor" (after 25 years have passed) and thought of this song.
Sure beats digging through my old CD collection to hear one tune.
Electric medicine...
