Friday Music: Just doing the 1980's

These would be the in the mode of sounds that everyone heard in a multitude of bands that copied or did better (or worse) than the ones I picked out.

Duran Duran was at the top of their game from 1982-1986.


Simple Minds: Does anyone remember any other band that got more out of one song in movie? (Berlin's Take My Breath Away, maybe from TOP GUN?)

Depeche Mode & OMD were listened to by Vision Wear people, riding skateboards (then an act of rebellion) and the pre-Seattle angst crowd.

It's Friday, go do The Big 80's!!!

Depeche Mode - People are People. Well, they are?





OMD - If You Leave. Classic Sync Pop Band.





Simple Minds - Don't You (Forget About Me). The Breakfast Club. The launcher of careers and weird spoofs.




Duran Duran - Hungry Like the Wolf. And out on the prowl!!! Meow!!!

I'm not all that familiar with Duran Duran but Tom Cruise certainly used to be hot back in the day now he is just creepy.
