RE: OT: Favorite 80's Song
Throwing out some rock bands that had great 80s songs...
Whitesnake
--here I go again
Cinderella
Skid Row
--18 and Life
--Youth Gone Wild
Red Hot Chili Peppers
--all the hits of Mother's Milk cd
Bon Jovi
--Slippery When Wet had tons of classics for the 80s.
--Wanted Dead or Alive
--You gave Love a Bad Name
--New Jersey was great too...
******************
******************
But, since there is a lack of hip hop here:
*Agreed, RUN DMC had some EPIC classics in the 80s
--Its Tricky
--Runs House
--King of Rock
--Walk this Way f/ Aerosmith
--Beats to the Rhyme
But here are some I'd like to throw out:
VIDEO
"It takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back" was a EPIC CD. I'm only posting one track though...
VIDEO
LL's "Walking With a Panther" had
Jingling Baby, I'm that Type of Guy, Going Back to Cali ...
You could also go back to BAD aka Bigger and Deffer if you want that old school RAW hip hop
VIDEO
Can't forget Boogie Down Productions.
--KRS ONE was great.
As for the Beastie Boys, you have to have the entire License to Ill album. If you like their more eclectic suff then Paul's Boutique just makes the cut at 1989.
VIDEO
While "Wild Thing" and " Funky Cold Medina" were the big hits, the whole album was actually pretty good.

So was "Microphone Fiend" off of "Follow the Leader"

For whatever reason, "Manic Monday" was playing in the background at several significant life events of mine. Not sure I've ever paid attention to all the words before watching the video, but it's definitely an 80s song that made an impression. Though not entirely of its own doing.

No one forgets Michael's songs.

Could have broke out "I Need Love." But I was never a fan of his slow jams for the ladies.
