Gainzo Posted February 18, 2006 Author Share Posted February 18, 2006 Thor I've got something for you: Split Enz is getting back together for a tour of Australia in June/July. I'm hoping they will come to North America as well. Neil Finn is a good mate of Eddie Vedder and has been to North America many times. Hopefully that will fuel the 'Enz' to do a tour of small clubs over here. I would love to see them perform live. My Mum's friend used to live next door to them in Malvern, Victoria. I met them once when I was a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StillerPaul Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 My favorite 80's tune = Tainted Love by Softcell. At least i THINK it came out in the 80's. Thats when i listened to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 I see Thor has A Flock of Seagulls on his list. I really liked their album. I saw them live, once, opening for the Go-Gos. There was a lot of great music back then. Some crap, too, but a lot of fun stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor99 Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 You know what this thread is missing? Sinead O'Connor's first album, The Lion and the Cobra. Severely underrated record, full of great songs. Mandinka, Jackie O, Just Like You Said It Would Be. I'm going to have to go and find that CD now.

I am not sure if the music was so awesome in the 80's or if it had to do with the fun I was having then!!!!! Either way it all brings back great memories.

Panzer Division Marduk Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Am I losing my mind, wasn't it the McCauley-Schenker Group? That version of MSG did exist for a while (late 80's early 90's). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preston Howley III Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 That version of MSG did exist for a while (late 80's early 90's). Yup, they had a song that had potential to get radio airplay (but of course, never did) called ON AND ON. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawn306 Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Loved them To this day I still have not heard a voice as good as Steve Perry. Someone posted a great song in "Lights". Their whole Escape album was great and was something that they were never able to recapture with the followups "Frontiers" and "Raised on Radio" Say what you want about Bon Jovi but they are one of the few 80's hair bands that have stood the test of time and even now continue to play to sold out arena and stadiums around the world. Not bad for a bunch of guys from Jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(There's a Smizzy joke in there, somewhere) Psychedelic Furs- Love My Way By the way, Richard Butler's band after the Furs, Love Spit Love, is awesome. That was a great soundtrack.

3peach Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 I absolutely loved 19 by Paul Hardcastle (and no, not becuz of his name, RMAOLOL). Also, for some reason, I could really relate to SMALLTOWN BOY, BY THE BRONSKI BEAT, I guess it was bcuz I'm from a small town or something. I also liked TRY by Thelonious Monster, it reminds me of a happier time in my life, when things weren't so complicated. Peach ou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
