What 80's artist(s) can you honestly say you don't really care for?


For me, it would be (in no particular order):
Michael Bolton
Rush <-- although they did have 2 or 3 songs i liked
Freddie Jackson
Edie Brickell & New Bohemians
Howard Keel --> Didn't like him as an actor either :lol:

Bros
Bon Jovi

Edit:
New Kids On The Block (Thanx Midas :thumb: )
Brother Beyound - saw a thread about them earlier and I suddenly remembered them also :dammit:


And a lot more I can't think about right now. I'll update the list soon, though ;)

Btw. Goditladjflkaf :lol: Eddie Brickell made one of the greatest albums of the 80s imho - "shooting rubberbands at the stars" :thumb: So sorry you don't like 'em ;)

Bros
Bon Jovi

Bros :lol: I remember them
One of the Goss Bros. is marrying supermodel Daisy Fuentes.. I think it's Matt. That Bastard :grrr:

Michael Bolton
New Kids On The Block
Tiffany

that's all I can think of for now.

You know Micheal Bolton started out Heavy Metal? Used to have a metal video on MTV called "Everybody is Crazy".

Just from overplay on radio/MTV:

The Police
Genesis/Phil Collins
John Cougar Rodham Mellencamp
Any Jackson
Paula Abdul

Bleh.

Michael Bolton....*gag*

simply red

All Hair bands (except ozzy w/randy rhodes)
NKOTB
Journey
Styx
Lionel Richie (this guy is my biggest advisary when i watch the 80s channel on my digital cable. 1/20 songs is him.)

New Kids
Michael Bolton ~TOS
Some Big hair ands
Tiffany
Who else did I change the channel on? hmm.....

All Hair bands (except ozzy w/randy rhodes)

Ozzy with Rhoads wasn't a "Hair Band".

I'd have to say R.E.M., Eddie Brickell, and Suzanne Vega would be great starts for me.

And whistledog...RUSH???!!!

U2,
and at a risk of getting lynched by everyone (and this is only MY opinion)
Metal did nothing for me (apart from Faith No More who were the best rock band ever).
And Bruce Springsteen.
And George Michael.
Oh and Culture Club.
That's it! :thumb:



And Bruce Hornsby.

I know. I sometimes feel like such a terrible Canadian cause I don't really like Rush all that much :(

In the last month or so, I've grown to appreciate more of their songs in the 80's, but for the most part, it's 70's Rush that I never liked.

Bill Vera & The Beaters

The first singer and song that come to mind is Sabrina with the horrible song Boys.
If you think you need to hang you breast out to score a hit... that's sad.

The video for 'Boys' was awful, but Sabrina sure was something to look at though :drool:

I didn't get to the looking at her face part! I was more interested with her frisky puppies!

Those were pretty much all you could see :lol:

another one came to mind. One who is still around. Bryan Adams. YAK. The only song I did not hate is run to you, but the rest. Yes also summer of 69, Hate them.

I really can't stand INXS!!!

Friggin' boy bands, I knew they'd be the end of all music (NKOTB, Menudo, New Edition) :grrr:
-Culture Club was pretty damn annoying too
-most of the R&B singers (sacrilege for a kid from the projects, but I don't care)

Still pullin' for MJ though! I still think he's got a bum rap! Fight the power bro!

Michael Bolton
Rick Astley
Katrina & the Waves
Tiffany
all boy bands except New Edition
Poison
Warrant
Twisted Sister
10,000 Maniacs
Whitney Houston
Milli Vanilli
Bobby Brown
Toto
Air Supply
Pointer Sisters
Jefferson Starship

I'm sure there are more....
