|
|
Yeah, Tina Weymouth, the bassist and Chris Frantz, the drummer. Wordy Rappinghood rocks. Talking Heads rocked up until Speaking In Tongues. They were shit without Eno. |

Cameo "Single Life" is simply one of the best songs ever written. From when it came out until this very day, that has been a constant sonic companion. There's a DJ Dreamgirl on MySpace and she did this great Electro mix that drops Cameo in there, and it sounds so awesome. My recommends for 80s? A lot of good ones already mentioned, my pick |

woa thanks guys, at the moment of posting the message my only idea was ESG. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you should play Living in the 1980's by Cylob. It's a funny piss take of 80's music |
||||||||
|
|

|
The Communards- Don't Leave Me This Way Tuxedomoon- What Use? |
||||||||
|

I'm so glad you know that song!!! In a lot of Cameo songs, they do this thing where theres a simple funky groove, that suddenly has some brilliant chord changes. I find it hard to explain, but in the vid its where the gangster guy smashes his hands in the table. Its sooo good!! Theyve made a lot of brilliant tracks. "She's strange" is also a favourite. Ah heck, heres a link for you Checking out that remix ASAP |

I like the way 80's music wasn't ashamed to be artificial. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I do actually!!! and i love that video!!! Jesus man, i'm beginning to love you (in a strictly platonic way) |

||||||||
|
|

I don't think Cabaret Voltaire has been mentioned yet, one of my favourite groups from the 80s. Sly and demented dubby "synthfunk" |

Old skool |

Shit for parties though. Unless it's some student squat party debating politics and drinking snakebite. |
