You suck! Well crap, until I read this I was going to post my favorite Boy George tune.
Dude, I know cranking the REO Speedwagon on the 8-track player must have been good times for you, but you seriously need to get hip to the 80s. Every decade has it's crap (do I need to mention Disco?), but the 80s were pretty happening.
Iron maiden and Guns and Poseurs? Those dudes rocked man, easily as much as Steppen Wolf or Lynyrd Skynyrd. LOL @ southern rock.
REM- The One I love
U2
The Cure - Pictures of You, Just Like Heaven. (Yo, Disintegration is the Greatest album of all time. )
The Cult
Ten Thousand maniacs
Shit, Van Halen was basically an 80s band.
Metallica
Public enemy
Tom Petty
Duran Duran (I didn't like them, but you just know toe-tapping young republican males' hearts were all a-flutter over those pretty boys)
And last but not least, my all-time favorite 80s group
