List your 80s guilty pleasures

[jbj]

I'd be here all night listing mine however I have a gig at a car festival and they want nothing but 80s tunes and reckin I'll uncover some long forgotten gems here.

 

[Help!I'maRock!]

I don’t believe in guilty pleasures. Like something it don’t. But don’t be ashamed of it either.

I love Madonna.

I love Madonna.

I actually owned and liked the first Madonna album. It still reminds me of a very special surf trip in Mexico in 1984.

A classic 80's pleasure, Better Off Dead.

I have inordinate amounts of love for cyndi lauper, but I'm not guilty about that at all.

 

[Gary Blanchard]

I was into a lot of music back then, but especially stuff like Depeche Mode, OMD, Thomas Dolby, and Howard Jones. I was really into Laurie Anderson as well; I somewhat emulated her style and saw her perform live three times. Another favorite was Jane Siberry. Like others, I have no guilt over any of it.

 

[bsman]

There're a couple of Flock of Seagulls tunes on my playlist.

I can quote most of that movie.

That is a familiar list.

OmD are definitely in there.

Saying you don't believe in guilty pleasures and then naming someone who's been canon for 20+ years. cop0

I unabashedly love Madonna.

No shame there at all. She's freakishly talented.

 

[wok]

I don't feel guilt over my musical preferences

I still rank 80s Maiden as my main reason I started playing guitar. Still love them

 

[GusChiggins]

For everyone who's confused, this would be an example of an 80s guilty pleasure:

 

[Theodore]

I unabashedly love Madonna.

I love David Bowie.

 

[dmn23]

If anyone's got something to say about "Push It" by Salt n' Pepa, now's the time. Otherwise meet me after school at the flag pole and bring your punk-ass friends if you think you need 'em.

 

[shoeless]

I love David Bowie.

Funny...my first thought was posting this...although I'm not sure how guilty anyone should be about it. It was a pop masterpiece, as well as Bowie's entrance into the MTV era, and it put SRV on the map...sort of.

 

[Peen Simmons]

I know this is out there, but I LOVE Prince. #soguilty

 

[Help!I'maRock!]

I love David Bowie.

Is there something wrong with loving David Bowie?
