    Anything from Grand Theft Auto Vice City is great. Like on the "Wave 103", and "Flash FM" stations.

    Ah yes, 80's music. Tis the very reason I have over 500 CD's full of it, and about 30GB of MP3's.
    The somewhat-obscure stuff and "hair metal" are my specialties.

    Class of 1988. 'Nuff said.

            Yeah, it was a fun decade...glad to have been a teenager in those years with all that good music.
            And you have a pretty good list going there. I won't even start on mine as it would take a year to write. LOL

                    A few weeks ago I checked out the 'retro' show on the radio, it was sad. While there was alot of 80s stuff in there still, a good 25% was from the 90's.

                    I hadn't listened to it in a couple years. Oh well

                      The retro show on one of the stations here in Atlanta mixes 90s stuff with 80s (and even a little 70s Punk), but most of it is more obscure stuff or lesser known tracks from the 1990s (with the exception of maybe Oasis), mostly ending around 1996-7, which to me is the end of the really good music anyway (By 1998, the crappy stuff starting getting popular.). I still love my 80s music, I used to go to a local club every couple weeks for their 80s night (I haven't been in maybe 3 years, and they started to play some 1980s techno stuff that was ultra obscure by then; I may try to go there a few more times before September, when the club is scheduled to close [the owners have sold the place to be turned into lofts {the club is in an old factory building} because all of the old buildings in the neighborhood are getting the loft treatment, and some new-built ones are popping up as well.), and just can't stay out late like I was able in my early to mid 20s.

                        I was in Houston recently and there is a station fully dedicated to an 80s format. Most of the music was the top 40 stuff from that era. Personally I like the more obscure releases.

                        'The Church' a little known Aussie group that got some air play in the US but neve made the top 40 with songs like 'Reptile and 'Milky Way'.

                        'Midnight Oil' Another Aussie group who had a single hit in the US 'Beds are Burning'. While they were pretty much a politically active, US bashing group, they had a great sound, despite their left wing politics. I believe that the former lead vocalist Peter Garret is now a MP for the 'Greenie Meanie' party.

                        'Big Country' which barely made the charts in the US with their hit song of the same name.

                        'Mister, Mister' Two great songs 'Broken Wings'and 'Kyrie'

                        'Alan Parsons Project'

                        'Dire Straits'

                        'Don Henley'

                        'Pink Floyd'
                        The list could go on forever, suffice it to say, the 80s was probably my favourite decade for music.

                            "Give me time... to realize my crime...."

                            Still my all time favorite track from the 80s... I'm a sucker for the old slow 80s ballads...
