I really missed the 80s music videos

Ever seen "Just One of the Guys"? Best pair of tits I've ever seen in my life.

I was only 11 to 13 year old when I was in Florida back in the 80s. The Florida girls were so beautiful. I remember I was like 12 and there is this blonde girl standing in the ice rank cafeteria area, she is like 17? She was so gorgeous. I can't take my eyes off her. Those were the days. Girls in school were nice to me too. Back in those days romance was everywhere. There's always some chick curious of you.

Hey this is great. I see people suggesting music videos on this thread. Wow! Makes me feel like MTV alive all over again. Keep doing it. I want to visit this thread each day. I think this thread will be a huge hit.

^^THIS^^

I've had a hard day, weekend. This has cheered me up!

It was a different era. Romance was everywhere. You can be the ugliest kid in the whole school and there is always a girl who secretly admires you.

Romance was everywhere back in those days. If your girlfriend died, you could kill yourself. It was that deep. Lovers really cared about each other like Romeo and Juliet. Modern day people would have no clue what it was like. Girls meant what they said. They don't look out for your money.

This has got to be one of my favorites. Rockit. This came out I think around the same time Michael Jackson did his Thriller.

I don't even understand how MTV is still in business; all they show are crappy reality shows that I can't see anybody caring to watch.

They don't show music videos anymore.

It's a damn shame.

The 80s was the best decade.

Yeah 80s music truly were the best. Nowadays, all music sound like car commercial. They all sound the same. Little bit of hip pop and techno mixed together with some voice clips from unheard of singer.

We must be twins separated at birth. You're describing my childhood. Flashback time...

Come home from school, turn on MTV, hang with friends, throw on my parachute pants & head out to do some breakdancing, moonwalk all the way back home. Had my "Flock of Seagulls" hairdoo, my E.T. the extra terrestrial collector cards, my fedora & chintzy leather bullwhip from Sunny's Surplus, would mow lawns & buy all my collection comics & piss away whatever was left at the Arcade (step aside for the lord of DigDug). Everything was "Rad!" & "Wicked Awesome." Oh, forgot... ninja outfits & tabi boots from martial arts magazines - "Revenge of the Ninja" 4ever! Sho Kosugi was the baddest! Had a crush on every cute girl at school but too shy to ask them to the dance. Always dedicating this or that Journey song to them on the radio hoping they'd hear. 2 older brothers with 70s muscle cars & hard rock music blasting who'd mock me for my love of 80s pop culture.

Murray Head is the true inventor of RAP music. Some say Aero Smith invented Rap, or this and that invented Rap. That's pure bullshit. I was there in Florida when I was just 13, then suddenly Murray Head's 'One night in Bangkok' came out on MTV. It was a huge hit. Because it was Murray Head speaking very quickly fitting the music's rythem. He never sang. He just kept speaking. This took the audience by a storm. Nobody has ever heard of it before. This song was a monster hit. Then suddenly everybody is copying him, especially the black singers. They all started copying Murray Head's style. This 'One night in bangkok' is truly the first RAP. I was 13. Then people start to call this speaking with music RAP like one year after this music video was released. I remember very closely like it was yesterday. I have to say this is the most influentual song of the 80s, surpassing Michael Jackson's Thriller.

Oh year. Back in those days Karate was a huge thing. Every kid in school claims that they have at least a yellow belt in Karate. Kids goto Seven Eleven just to buy Kung Fu or Black Belt magazine. I bought a couple of ninja stars from classified ads at the back of magazines. They sell those aluminum samurai swords in stores, and every kid wanted it. And we were buying Star Wars cards that come with a piece of gum. It was fun back in those days. I would love to go back. Girls in school were so hot.

A Little Graham Bonnet and Stevie Vai....

Oh look this one is fun. "One Step Below" I have not watched this video for 37 years. Today is first time watching it because I wanted to contribute to this thread.

As much as I hate to admit now, I used to think Stacey Q was sooooooo hot.

LOL! Yes!! "Kung Fu" & "Black Belt Magazine." Forgot the names of those... that's where we got our ninja apparel, & we also did throwing stars, padded nunchuks, butterfly knives, combo brass knuckle/commando knives, spiked wristbands, leather moccasins & suede desert boots, & anything that trended from those 80s action flicks.

And Star Wars... there was a maintenance dumpster for a nearby building with a steady supply of flourescent lightbulbs... ready-made lightsabres for when we were goin Jedi in our make-believe romps. Battlestar Galactica got us through the long wait for the next SW sequel. Oh... Huffy Bikes - nothing with a bananna seat or you were fag-4-life. Totally tubular! And yeah the chicks were shmokin. Skin tight Jordache jeans & thin athletic builds... what the hell is up with the obesity epidemic today? Gag me with a spoon!

Oh yeah I think I know what you mean. Back in those days when I was in 5th grade, there were only 1 or 2 fat girl in the class. Just 1 or 2. Nowadays lots of them are fat pigs. In each class there is always the prettiest girl that every boy is trying to impress her. I was lucky to be in a class where the whole class 5 girls were smoking hot and I have no idea which one I like the most.

Remember AHA?
