    What are your favorite 80's tracks? Mine are probably Don't Stop Beliving by Journey and Renegade by Styx. What about you?

    My favourites from early 80's are:

    1.- "Nowhere Girl" from B-Movie.
    2.- Bette Davis Eyes from Kim Carnes.

    And just out of curiosity, do you know that Video Killed the Radio Star from The Buggles was the first music video to be shown on MTV when the music channel debuted on August 1, 1981 ?

    Simply has to be:

    Shoop Shoop Diddy Wop, Cumma Cumma Wang Dang

    by Monte Video and the Cassettes.

    Ahhh, memories indeed.

    Phlegm...

    (of course, anything early U2 goes without saying)
