80's

[Moon]

I've been pretty clueless about the 80's but after playing some grand theft auto vice city, i'm starting to dig the 80's... especially the stuff like grandmaster flash, run dmc, herbie hancock, davey dmx... anyone wanna share some phat shit from the 80's?

Hmm for some reason I knew you weren't keen on hip-hop from the 80's.. you were more of a Wham fan weren't you? :P

[Moon]

wham fan as in big on what was more mainstream and hot?

growing up i think i was wierded out by the 80's... found it overly eccentric. The 80's fashion wierded me out the most

but theres a cool vibe to some 80's shit.

80's music is the bomb! -- I love 80's tunes.

I think this is even reflective by the amount of 80's remixes I have. Some of you probably heard me drop that Tears for Fears - Shout Breaks mix on Friday at Krafty.

A kewl sound track with a ton of 80's tracks is The Wedding Singer:
1. Video Killed the Radio Star - Presidents of the United States of America
2. Do You Really Want to Hurt Me - Culture Club
3. Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic - The Police
4. How Soon Is Now? - The Smiths
5. Love My Way - The Psychedelic Furs
6. Hold Me Now - Thompson Twins
7. Everyday I Write the Book - Elvis Costello
8. White Wedding - Billy Idol
9. China Girl - David Bowie
10. Blue Monday - New Order
11. Pass the Dutchie - Musical Youth
12. Have You Written Anything Lately?
13. Somebody Kill Me - Adam Sandler
14. Rapper's Delight [Medley] - Ellen Albertini Dow

ya, i know what you mean, i've played Vice City over the past few years over at my friend's place but at christmas i got San Andreas with all their radio stations. i find my self listing to SF-UR (house music) and Master Sounds (80's stuff) with the game came a little booklet that told you all the stations and the artist/song that is played on that stations. lots of wicked stuff, the music fits the game i think. Grand Master Flash has some pretty awsome songs.
