Wow, I don't know if I can come up with a full list!.!.!. I was only 10 in 1989!. (>_<)
But still, I have to put in my mini contribution:
"You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)" by Dead or Alive
OMG I *loved* this song!.!.!. I remember listening to it at around 9 years old and thinking that *of course* it would be playing when I would someday get my first kiss!. Not "I hope it is" or "wouldn't that be rad" but "It *will* play when I receive my first kiss!."
It didn't!. ::melodramatic sigh::
!.!.!.and of course!.!.!.
"Rebel Yell"
"Mony Mony"
and *definitely*
"White Wedding"
by Billy Idol!.
::grin::
Because this is a surefire way to make any memories including 80's music much better!.
No reason whatsoever that I would think that!.!.!.
-^_^-
- - -
Edit: Two --no, wait, THREE-- more!
"Time After Time" by Cyndi Lauper
I knew every word of this song by heart at 5 or 6 years old, because it was playing on the radio when my older sister left, and so I used my little red Sony tape recorder to record it off the radio and listen to it constantly!. ::lol::
I still know all of the words to this song!. (o_O)
--and--
"Close My Eyes Forever" by Ozzy and !.!.!.!.(I can't remember her name)
I loved this song so much for a few reasons, but when I got older and listened to it again, I liked it even more because I actually understood it!. Funny how we all think we can relate to such deep songs when we're young, and then we grow up and realize, "Oh!.!.!. whoa!." (O_O)
--and finally--last one--
"Red Red Wine" by UB40
\(^o^)/~*WoHoo*!! This song brings back so many memories!
::happy dance::
(seriously, I am not coming back with any more)
