Thread: 80's and early 90's music

  1. #1

    Hey guys I'm trying to put together a list of mid to late 80's music on into the early 90's. Some of the stuff I've heard and liked I don't even remember who it was or who it was by. So I'm looking for you guys to help me come up with some tracks to check out to see if I remember them. Don't post anything like PM Dawn or Run DMC, etc. I have that covered already I'm looking for the stuff that may have popped up on the top 40, sounded cool but was never really heard again. Some of the songs I've found recently are Klymaxx - I Miss You, Breathe - Hands To Heaven, Sheriff - When I'm With You. Some of the stuff I'm trying to find may have not been on the top 40, I was just using that as an example since I found those on the old top 40 lists.

    So if you guys remember any cool songs or might know of something I should check out please post it.

    And ain't nobody callin' the cops
    'Cause everybody's here freakin', if they're older they're doin the rock
    And every block from all around
    Comes runnin' to the park when they hear the sound
    And soon the word's spreadin' through our part of town
    "Yo, 40 Park y'all, Jam-On's gettin down"
    Yeah...

    My list is here. I'm sure there's a few duplicates (I'm shite at organization), and I'm sure some have already been mentioned.

    hope it helps.
