That was actually my all-time favorite song for a while there, LOL!  And Thomas Dolby was the first rock concert I ever attended!

I am going to date myself here...first concert I ever attended was Vanilla Fudge at Weirs Beach, NH in 1969.

They sang their very famous version of the slowed down (way slowed down) Supremes hit, "You Just Keep Me Hangin On."

David:
I like the 80s music for several reasons. 


1,    My generation obviously.

2,    You could actually understand the words in the songs.  LOL

3,   catchy upbeat tempo /  rhythm.

Cameron:
The 80's was my music too.

All those reasons too, but you couldn't understand the words in all the songs.  I also believe that time was great because I think that there was a lot of creativity and originality going on at that time.  I think the good music of that time was created from real thoughts and feelings, not just how much money could be made like it seems today.
Also I think a lot of it did have some real substance too.

Oh yeah, also great hairstyles too.

My first real concert: The Police, Joan Jett and REM in Shea Stadium in 1983.

injest:
talking about soundtracks reminded me....John Travolta played an angel in a movie (can't remember the name) and they played this song that went (Please forgive) >.."I got a friend in Jesus..." or something...it was very catchy!! I just remember John and two women dancing to it...

anyone know that song

(I mean come ON...look at all the information I have on it... :P )
