Some Madonna song that I thought I was gonna get laid to but I realized that if I had done the deed I would have gotten home past my curfew and my old man would have killed me and I do not mean that figuratively!

Didn't Stevie Nicks do "Edge of Seventeen" in the '80s? That is my all time favorite song.

Yes. It's a memorable 80's pop song from a memorable 80's movie in typical 80's style with keytar and all. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Don't you, forget about me. With the kind of airy/expansive processed sound I associate with lots of 80s pop songs. Examples like "Drive" and a few others from the Cars, "The Promise" by When in Rome, "Take on Me" by A-Ha, "Take My Breath Away" by Berlin, etc. There were lots of synthesized "breath pads" in those songs. I'm more of a rock/metal fan, but those songs bring back memories. |

My wife says I never left the 80s, and if you look at my music collection it tends to confirm her assertion.
You guys have listed some great tunes. For me, quintessential 80s music is probably New Order, but another of my favorites I haven't seen listed (though I could have missed it) is White Lines by Grandmaster Flash. I remember dancing to that song in the clubs in college and feeling the energy from the throng on the dance floor. Great tune. |

On the subject of 80's hits. I found this quiz. It will kill 20 minutes of your day.
I scored 31 out of 100 without cheating. Only thing I did was use Google to verify spelling. If the spelling is off it won't score it for you. http://www.sporcle.com/games/_T_R_O_Y_/100-best-selling-songs-of-the-80s# |

Man, I LOVED Laura Branigan. Such a shame to lose her at 24. She died at 47. I shook her lovely hand at the first stop of her first concert tour, the Breakaway, in Akron, Ohio, just after "Gloria" charted. A genuinely good lady. |
