Instead of doing several posts, i thought i'd just post twenty second streamline audio samples of some early 80's songs that I remember from the eighties

Does anyone remember any of them? Click a song title to hear it:

Gotta love these great posts of yours! :thumb:

Ambrosia - Biggest Part of Me (a good song)
Amy Holland - How Do I Survive (not my taste)
Billy Squier - The Stroke (the ultimate anthem of double entendre!) :thumb: :lol:
Marty Balin - Hearts (didn't care for it then or now)
Paul Davis - '65 Love Affair (another good song)
Juice Newton - Love's Been A Little Bit Hard on Me (I have to admit I had a thing for Juice back in the day. She is a gifted musician)
The Spinners - Working My Way Back to You (how could you NOT like the Spinners?)
Robbie Dupree - Steal Away (eh.)
Blue Öyster Cult - Burnin' For You (my fave BOC song. Love the guitar in this one!)
Dave Edmunds - Slipping Away (ok song, very reminiscent of ELO or Asia.)
Atlanta Rhythm Section - Alien ( I like ARS, but not my fave tune of theirs)
Rex Smith and Rachel Sweet - Everlasting Love (one of the reasons disco wasn't everlasting)
Bruce Woolley and the Camera Club - Video Killed the Radio Star (prefer the Buggles version)
Eddie Rabbitt - I Love A Rainy Night (no man could do more with one chord per song! :lol: )
Brothers Johnson - Stomp (can you feel the polyester?)
Franke and the Knockouts - Sweetheart (not a bad song)
Missing Persons - Windows
Missing Persons - Words (both good songs, but I liked Destination Unknown the best)
A Taste of Honey - Sukiyaki (I'd rather Boogie-Oogie-Oogie) :laugh:
Kenny Loggins with Steve Perry - Don't Fight It (I'd forgotten about this song! What a great tune!) :thumb:
Melissa Manchester - You Should Hear How She Talks About You (another great 80's tune!)

Thanks for posting these! :thumb:

Thanks a lot like always for those wonderdfull song clips.

Ambrosia - Biggest Part of Me (A top 10 hit in 1980)
Amy Holland - How Do I Survive (It came out in 1980 and her only top 40 hit. I think that Michael McDonald had something to do with this song)
Billy Squier - The Stroke (From 1981, His first biggest hit)
Marty Balin - Hearts (A sad good rainy song from 1981)
Paul Davis - '65 Love Affair (1982 was the last year for Paul Davis. ‘Cool Night’ was such a cool song as well)
Juice Newton - Love's Been A Little Bit Hard on Me (A 1981 song for the pop/country sensation Queen of Hearts)
The Spinners - Working My Way Back to You (1980 Hit for the Spinners)
Robbie Dupree - Steal Away (I think is 1980… I like this song… but I haven’t heard it for a long time)
Blue Öyster Cult - Burnin' For You (a 1981 super great song!)
Dave Edmunds - Slipping Away (Yeah! Slipping Away was heard during 1982 or 83 but I forgot all about it)
Atlanta Rhythm Section – Alien (a 1981 top 40 hit for this Atlanta group… It did sound like ELO thought)
Rex Smith and Rachel Sweet - Everlasting Love (Did not like it. The 70’s version was much better)
Bruce Woolley and the Camera Club - Video Killed the Radio Star (Nope. But I like the Buggles better anyway)
Eddie Rabbitt - I Love A Rainy Night (Big hit in 1980 for Mr. Rabbitt)
Brothers Johnson – Stomp (I really like this 1980 disco/funk song)
Franke and the Knockouts – Sweetheart (Yes! Cool song from 1980 for Hall and Oates…I mean Franke and the Knockouts)
Missing Persons – Windows (I like the song from their 1982 Abum but it wasn’t their biggest hit)
Missing Persons – Words (Big Hit for Missing Persons in 1982… Great Song!)
A Taste of Honey – Sukiyaki (Did not like this remake that much… It just wasn’t 80’s enough for me)
Kenny Loggins with Steve Perry - Don't Fight It (1982 rock song for both of them… I can’t believe it wasn’t a bigger hit since it came out when both singers were very popular… But the song didn’t have any magic for me)
Melissa Manchester - You Should Hear How She Talks About You (1982 hit for Manchester… Boy what a long title for a song)
