I don't care what anyone says "When Doves Cry" and "Cry Little Sister" are my sex songs. |
When Doves Cry - completely transforming. Lucky you that its your sex song. I think mine is "She bangs the drum" by the Stone Roses. |
I felt sad today hearing one of the Brothers Johnson's passed away.

There is something about the opening notes of Madonna's Borederline that takes me right back to my childhood/teen years. |
Oh my gosh, yes. And that song If You Leave. Plus Don't You Forget About Me from The Breakfast Club. |
That was my sophomore cotillion song. Brings me back. |
Oh yeah. You keep on pushing me over the borderline ![]() |
I am 39, and the reality is 80's music is 100 times better than 90% of the music that is played today. I am glad Sirius has an 80's channel, and their countdowns every week are interesting to listen to. |
80s songs that make me feel nostalgic...
—Follow You Follow Me by Genesis (technically 1978) but played at my prom in the 80s —Pretty much anything by Peter Gabriel—In Your Eyes, Solsbury Hill, Don’t Give Up—duet with Kate Bush —We Belong by Pat Benatar |
We're we at the same high school? That was our prom song too. Rumor had it that our class advisor, the Spanish teacher, may have allowed some stuffing of the ballot boxes because he was a huge Genesis fan. |
I recently watched ET and Footloose and burst into tears with both. Just brought me to a time I really miss. |
If you like 80's on 8, switch over to First Wave (I think it's #33 on Sirius). It's 80s but more of the Brit and electro-pop stuff like Neworder, Erasure, The Smiths, Echo and the Bunnymen, etc. I also happened to be out driving tonight and they play an 8-hour mix of songs like this on Saturday nights. I actually drove a few more blocks just so I could listen to it longer! |
Np here. Thanks for the heads up! I have Sirius on my new car, but I haven't figured out the stations yet. I have to find this one! |
Just by reading this I can hear those notes in my head. I had unexpected tears recently hearing the beginning of Runaway, "On the street where you live girls talk about their social lives ..." I wouldn't have thought that song had any special meaning for me, but it really got to me. |
Cruel summer makes me want to buy a beach cruiser, hit hunington and get a sugar high off pixie stix while tanning to a crisp. |
