1980s Can you stand it?

Can we do 80s, I know we need respect and decorum, but she did actually live through the 1980s, and probably had fun. Let's do 80s.

Is it a mood?

Is it a bop?

It's got a groove, it's got a meaning. Sorry, wrong decade. It's Cyndi!

Was this 80s? Well, maybe. It seems like it should be.

The ones at R13 and R15 are quite awful.

You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real) at R16 is an awesome classic.

R17 was the fat queen standing in the corner watching all the young ,pretty boys dancing their asses off.

Though I was very little at the time, this embodies so much of what I love about the 1980s...musically, and otherwise. Drag, androgeny, BDSM, and being openly gay were expressions of cultural and social subversion. It was a very scary time for the gay community, but also immensely exhilarating.

Also: I have a huge crush on Holly in this video, because he's the perfect combination of buttoned-up, and filthy. It's a huge fucking turn-on.

Wait a minute. These were the late Queen’s favourite 80s songs? Picturing her grooving to “Fascinated” in the Palace is pretty hilarious.

by Anonymousreply 21September 20, 2022 7:21 AM

Company B's Fascination was in heavy rotation in the Boston clubs in the 80s. Thankfully that other song wasn't. i barely recognize it.

The clubs were all about Madonna, The Cover Girls, Expose', Whitney (mainly I wanna Dance With Somebody), Company B, Nocera, Regina, Alicia, Trinere....

And this Goddess of the dance floor.

I'm so sick of 80s music. I've been listening to it for 40 fucking years! It's playing everywhere I go, I can't escape it.

by Anonymousreply 26September 20, 2022 8:43 AM

It’s true. A lot of it is overplayed. You mostly hear 80s or 90s music as background music in stores when grocery shopping or whatever. I don’t think the last two decades have contributed mulch that will last. Hearing the equivalent to 40 year old music like we do now in the 80s would have been 1940s music playing everywhere, which I don’t remember as being the case.
