I would LOVE to live through the 80’s. I still try too set my life in the 80’s…really. I try to set my soundings 28 years in the past ,and try to live out the 80’s in sequence as it happened.
I know it seems strange and will never really happen but this is just something I really want to do. Nobody really seems to get it so I’m pretty much alone in this. I would like to find ppl who I can relate to with this. Or at least ppl who do get it and lay off calling me weird or telling me to stop it.
People doing this are also doing these things:
Entries
and it was good. Good music (XTC, The Smiths, REM, The Police, Psychedelic Furs, U2 when they were still cool), good times.
Granted, I was born in ‘84, but the three or four years I do remember were awesome. Everything was tacky and so very cheesy, I love it :) Don’t know if these petitions EVER make a bit of difference but I gave it a shot:
http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/lovethe80s
It’s a petition to get VH1’s I love the 80’s on DVD
And if anyone ever finds themselves in Atlantic City, go to 80’s night at The Wave, it’s in the Trump Marina. Practice your robot and bring your sparkle glove.
Koji Taneda would be like Hugh Hefner if Koji was handsome as hell.
Oh how crazy I am about 80’s music!
People say that 80’s music is
Probably one of the worst decade for music,
(I disagree because we have crappier Pop/Rock nowadays, thats why we end up listening to Hip-Hop)
But, oh how I love the 80’s!

I was 15 going into the 80’s and 25 leaving them ! Great music, fun clothes,lots of dating!
The 80’s seem so worthwhile to live in.
I wishhhhh I was born sooner!!!
The lifestyles then were SO different from the ones today. As in, less evil. I know the 80’s had its bad parts too. Plus I LOVE the 80’s fashion. Their clothes are pretty much my favorite. =]
happydaisy is loving life and enjoying it!!!
kids that grew up in the 80’s are so different from kids today. Just the technology alone makes the difference. The 80’s were worth doing…..for sure.
I WASNT BORN IN THE 80S BUT I LUUURRVE IT! I CANT BELIEVE YOU GUYZ DONT! I MEAN THE CRAZINESS, D-I-S-C-O, AND THE ROCKING MUSIC! BLONDIE, BOY GEORGE, ENOLA GAY, TIFFANY, THE BUGGLES…
I WOULD HAVE SO LUVED TO LIVE THEN THAN NOW NOT WITH THE TERRORISM THREATS AMD GLOBAL WARMING.
(SOZ MY CAP BUTTON IS STUCK)
joie de vivre is mellow
In some ways, the 70s were just a continuation of the 60s, whereas the 80s were something completely different. Since I was in my 20s during this period, I still enjoy the music: the Clash, Elvis Costello, Blondie, etc. But the Reagan administration was destructive on many different levels.
I would not like to live through the 80s again.
Edited to add: what has convinced my kids that the 80s were totally weird: http://www.1500videos.com/
Especially the following videos: Earth Wind and Fire, Culture Club, Jodi Jett – ‘80s Girl
