    I listen to Absolute 80's either via the internet or via an app on my phone. Always loads of good tunes being played on there.

    Psych Furs, Echo & the Bunnymen, Love & Rockets, New Order, U2, The Cure, the English Beat, Duran Duran, Flock of Seagulls, Simple Minds, XTC, Modern English, Icicleworks, Soft Cell, Berlin, Talk Talk, the Smiths, OMD, PiL, Wall of Voodoo, Oingo Boingo, Big Country, Pere Ubu, Big Audio Dynamite... these are the bands i think of when i think of great 80's music.

    :bigsmile:

    the one song that sticks in my mind most though was "the move out song" by Yaz. i can't think of my fraternity party days without hearing that.

    also, forgot to add Violent Femmes. "Blister in the Sun" was played at every tailgate. the sorority girls loved to dance to that. :wink:

    My all time favourite driving album is a power ballad one full of Meatloaf, Heart, Boston, REO Speedwagon, Europe. All the good old poodle haired soft rock power ballads. Awesome to wail along to

    It's a little more mainstream, but still follows the sci-fi theme he was doing there. Still a good song, definitely. Now I'm starting to sound like a hipster lol

    remember when we were teenagers( in the 80's) and we thought that the music we listened to was what made us seem cool to other people? it's funny to think back on that now, but in those days, we were always trying to be the first to find some great new wave band that hadn't yet broken big in the US, as if that would make us cool because we were fans first. so silly. the stuff that we as teenagers thought was so important and really wasn't... :laugh:

    Nice list, but seriously lose the U2 and the Duran Duran... too commercial and kinda uncool :tongue: :wink:
