Back to the 80’s
The 80’s are back, and in a big way. In music, in fashion, in movies and other stuff. Take a look around you. You can’t miss it. I posted some great 80’s links for your pleasure (but mostly mine, heh heh):
Test your knowledge on the ‘Me’ decade
Take “The 80’s Are Back Pack” quiz and see for yourself how good you are. Fun stuff, if you remember all of that. I remember parts of it.
80’s Fashion
Have you noticed? Take a close look at some of the TV, movie, and music stars next time you flip through an issue of People or watch a talk show.
J-lo for instance, is supposedly ’stunning’ in this gown at her ‘Enough’ movie premier. If that’s ’stunning’ you should see me in my raggedy old bathrobe at 8am! Eddie Griffin wore an old-school style jogging suit to his Conan O’Bryan appearance yesterday. It made me wanna bust out my old Run DMC tape and play ‘My Adidas’ and ‘Peter Piper’. Either that or go roller-skating while someone plays ‘Saturday’ by De La Soul on a boom box.
Did you also notice the 80’s-inspired songs that are on the radio nowadays?
Indeed. Look at the video for the new song by ‘No Doubt’…the song sounds so eighties, and what the hell are they wearing?
Here’s a directory page full of 80’s song links and lyrics that will surely take you back to those oh-so-happy days of greed and goodness, Cabbage Patch Dolls and Rubix Cubes, A Flock Of Seagulls and Hall & Oates good time, all rolled into one decade. Watching ‘The Wedding Singer’ kinda brought me back too, only that was just a smidgen of things from the 80’s that I loved.
Same day, different year..
