80s Music Is WAY Better Than Music From Today. Today's Music Is UUUUGGGHHH....Terrible. Retro 80s Music Should The Latest Thing. I Was Born In The '94 And When I Listen To 80s Tunes, I Felt Inspiringly Amazed.

[nzoz1982]

@80sMTV i was 16 in 1994 and felt exactly the same way... although i have more of an affection for early 80's music than the rest of the decade.

[billmackay1]

nzoz, I was there too. Wish I knew you were, I could have thanked for you for all your uploads that have kept me entertained and taken me back to the glory days of my youth!!! Thanks so much, keep up the good work!!

[nzoz1982]

@billmackay1 No worries Bill... I'll try my best... I ended up talking to a young bloke who never heard of YouTube nor the Hitmen and I had to explain to him that the old clips being played on screen are the same band, just thirty years prior...

[nzoz1982]

i was at their 30th b-day party in newtown on friday night.  over heard somebody saying that they watched Hitmen clips on YouTube... ha ha, my uploads by any chance.

Yeah, I'm the weird young guy in black that was leaning against the wall.

[nzoz1982]

I was at their 30th b-day party on Friday night in Newtown... thanx for the free entry guys. ;-)

[SKOTP69]

@nzoz1982 Indeed, that was the peak! I was 15 in 1984, and by the time I was 16 in late 1985 into 1986 I was already harking back mostly to early 80's music!!!

[brian14021994]

[joydivisionboy1]

Happy Birthday Zeus!!!

[skatingequalsPoWeR]

damn... wish i was born thirty years ago. im fourteen and live in sydney, and got here through Stranded - The Saints which my dad showed me, and listening to all this shows me i missed a damn good line of punk music. anyway, thanks for posting :D

[misshoneyjam69]

My all time favourite Sydney band...followed these guys religiously around the sydney pub circuit.....was sooo excited when I found their music on CD a few years ago & now this...YAY!!!!.....still have my studded belt & cuban heeled boots rule!!!...Chris, Brad & Johnny you guys were awesome & this style of music still rocks my world!!!.........ps: I was the one always down the front on the left with the long brown hair dancing & having the time of my life!!!
