acroyear | A killer 80s playlist... (Reply)

Rather than let things just go randomly, I actually played personal DJ and followed a mood where it felt like going, and this has been the playlist over the last couple of hours:

Fleetwood Mac - Straight Back (Stevie Nicks tune from Mirage)
'Til Tuesday - What About Love
Madness - My Girl
The Cure - Fascination Street (extended)
The Cars - Heartbeat City
The Kings - Do it Again
Robert Plant - Heaven Knows
Robert Plant - Ship of Fools
Pet Shop Boys - Love Comes Quickly
A-Ha - Living a Boy's Adventure Tale
Bruce Hornsby - The Red Plains
Dire Straits - Calling Elvis
Lindsey Buckingham - Wrong
Genesis - Man on the Corner
Rush - Mission
Peter Gabriel - This is the Picture
Sting - The Wild Wild Sea
Pete Townshend - Face the Face

and still to come in the queue

Pete Townshend - Slip Skirts
Alan Parsons Project - Stereotomy
CSN - Shadow Captain
King Crimson - Sheltering Sky
Yes - Shoot High Aim Low
U2 - Indian Summer Sky

(yeah, 1 70s and 2 90s songs in there - so what? i'm in a mood...). Yeah, the "hits" of the 80s are cool, but when in my deep 80s moods back in the day, THAT is the kind of stuff I was cranking out on my walkman...
