How about an 80's flashback.......


Recommended Posts

Well my boys must not have been a " Boy George' type. My oldest was always walking around the house singing "A Country Boy Can Survive' and his younger brother was a Devil Went down to Georgia kind of kid so no Boy George, no KISS or any heavy metal type stuff. They were both pure country boys................ :up:  :up:

[quote name="hipower" post="1148319" timestamp="1399946071"]80's?? I musta missed it. All I remember is work and Huey Lewis.[/quote]

Patrick Bateman: Do you like Huey Lewis and The News? Paul Allen: They're OK. Patrick Bateman: Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. Paul Allen: Hey Halberstram. Patrick Bateman: Yes, Allen? Paul Allen: Why are there copies of the style section all over the place, d-do you have a dog? A little chow or something? Patrick Bateman: No, Allen. Paul Allen: Is that a rain coat? Patrick Bateman: Yes it is! In '87, Huey released this, Fore, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself. [raises axe above head] Patrick Bateman: Hey Paul! [he bashes Allen in the head with the axe, and blood splatters over him] Patrick Bateman: TRY GETTING A RESERVATION AT DORSIA NOW, YOU FUCKING STUPID BASTARD! YOU, FUCKING BASTARD!

I could not stand Boy George or Michael Jackson......I found that pic and had to laugh. My wife and I were talking about 80s bands so I thought I'd share. Personally I was more into Blondie, Pat Benetar, Joan Jett, Heart, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd and of course Marshal Tucker...but then I do have eclectic tastes. After all...... it's hip to be square!

At least yours is a good song.  Yeah, I liked The Cure.  I still like The Cure.  And some folks think that Goth and Emo are new things.  Please.
