Musical Monday ~ Best And Worst Of The 80s



These songs certainly aren't THE worst or THE best, but they definitely fall under those categories!

WORST



The singing is just... awful lol! I'll give it props though for being included in the soundtrack of one of the best 80s movies - Valley Girl.



BEST




A seriously awesome song!!!

And, just for fun, this really cracked me up!!!!




What's moving you this week?

If you wanna play along just...
Post, link up and sign
Mr. Linky!

There's only one rule to Musical Monday -
it's gotta be musical!
Sometimes we have themes,
sometimes we don't.
Make up your own theme, like I did this week,
or share your favorite song of the moment.

And don't forget to spread the comment love!




P.S. The Celebration of Peace and Coexistence starts next Monday! But I will still be having Musical Monday!! If you'd like to use the Celebration as inspiration for your Musical Monday post, great! If not, of course just post what you'd like! Thanks for playing along!!!

I love that song! I saw the carpoolers video before very funny!
I LOVE the 80's and am quite happy some of the styles are coming back! I picked something different this week though. :-)

Hazel said...

They sound nice. I can't say which one was worst or best. What must I've been doing then ... I was a kid I guess. But I recognize the sound. It's 80s alrighty :)!

Love Dexy's Midnight Runners. Y'know - Drew was going to be named Eileen if he was a girl. After that song. Hmmm...I'm going to have to start thinking about my choices....

Boyd said...

Darn it all, sAm, you stole my comment! But yeah, I was going to be named after that song if I was a girl.

Come on Eileen is a family favorite here! You weren't kidding about that first one being one of the worst 80's songs...yikes it was BAD.

Loved the carpooler video it was hilarious....maybe we'll have to get onstar if we ever get a new car so we can settle lyrics fights on the road like that, LOL!

How could anyone NOT love the 80's?! I mean we had shoulder pads, eye liner, leg warmers, oversized sweaters and FINAL NET!!!
And that was just the guys!

I liked Dexy's Midnight Runners but they looked like they smelled.
