I took out the ones I did NOT like. Quite a few of these I liked only for the women dancing, not necessarily the music.

You can replace any of the ones I took out with any other female vocalists - put in some No Doubt, Stevie Nicks, Kylie Minogue, Shakira, etc.

 

damn did the 80's rule or what?

 

5 and 15 gotta be my fav, with video and song both in mind.

 

you know i could handle hearing all of these right now

 

"video killed the radio star" MTV ruled from '82-'88 after that it went downhill. (my opinion)

 

No Tool?
