    Untitled 15 months ago

    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.

    Eh, it was alright i guess



    I did high school and college in the 80s 2 years ago

    and it was good. Good music (XTC, The Smiths, REM, The Police, Psychedelic Furs, U2 when they were still cool), good times.



    Once is never enough!! 2 years ago

    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.

    80's Music 2 years ago

    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!

    Here is my compilations of 80’s Music Videos:

    CropTillDawn~ Pumpkin pie with LOTS of whipped cream...

    Wow! I did all kind of fun stuff in the 80's 2 years ago

    I was 15 going into the 80’s and 25 leaving them ! Great music, fun clothes,lots of dating!



    Definitely 2 years ago

    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!!!

    wow how times have changed 2 years ago

    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.



    80S - YOU GOTTA LUV IT <33 3 years ago

    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

    Interesting decade 3 years ago

    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
