Saturday Question
On Saturdays I'll try to come up with some "out there" question that just makes you stop and think about something not so important. Think of it as a mini vacation. If you have any ideas drop me a line and we'll throw it in here. Who knows, it might be fun.
OK - Here goes: One of the local radio stations is having a "Mad for the 80's" weekend. All 80's music all weekend.
Ahh the 80's. College, travelin' and singin' with a band, parties, big hair, short SHORT skirts, black leather, shots and kegs, punk parties - life was different then.....
So - here's the question - What is one of your favorite 80's song? Mine? ACDC of course - You Shook Me All Night Long. (Tammi Trivia - When I was modeling I actually tried to be in a couple of their videos. Never made the cut, but holy crap! What does that say about MY priorities back then....)
Enjoy!!!
Now - what about you? What was one of YOUR favorite 80's song?
Posted by Tammi at November 18, 2006 08:19 AM | TrackBackYou've got to be kidding, just ONE song????? There's no WAY I could do that. Let's just leave it at any Metallica, ACDC, or Def Leppard (not to say this is the only 80's music I love or anything).

T1G? - your choice explains so much to me...and doesn't surprise me at all! ;-)
Posted by: Tammi at November 18, 2006 10:54 AMAC/DC Back in Black...but it was hard to get it down to just one song.
Posted by: Mrs_Who at November 18, 2006 12:05 PMThat was a tough one... I'm going to stay in the High school era, early 80s as it was before I went completely alternative. .38 Special, Caught Up in You. Summer of my Senior Year in high school. I was dating the cutest boy...

Posted by: Jerry at November 18, 2006 04:38 PMAh, yeah, Jerry. From the same album, Battleship Chains.
Posted by: That 1 Guy at November 18, 2006 07:04 PMDepends on the time/what phase I was in, but I loved Whitesnake's "Here I Go Again" and Def Leppard's "Pour Some Sugar On Me" (saw them in '88 it ROCKED)
Posted by: Lisa W. at November 18, 2006 09:01 PMA whole CD of 80's in the car! Favorite is Joan Jett, I love Rock 'n' Roll. :( I'm a geek, I can't even have a cool favorite song.
Posted by: hope4grace at November 19, 2006 12:37 AM... anything off of ZZ Top's 'Eliminator' album...
Posted by: Eric at November 19, 2006 09:04 AMAnything by Stevie Nicks, although "Landslide" is pretty close to the top. It mightn't have been the music though, I had a bit of a thing for Stevie back in the day.

Yeah, I was (am) a huge AC/DC and old school Metallica fan, but when someone says "80's music!" that song by Madness is the #1 thing that pops into my head (disturbingly followed by Duran Duran's "The Reflex")
Posted by: Graumagus at November 19, 2006 10:43 AMGosh, I can't pick just one! There's a reason I listen to the Big '80s station on Sirius. :) Loved Def Leppard, John Cougar Mellencamp, Joan Jett, the Stray Cats, the Eurythmics. Way too many to choose!
(I came over from ArmyWifeToddlerMom's, by the way.)
