I have a confession.

I really can't stand people's 80's mixes. I think most are bland and lack imagination. And I notice that most of them are put together by people who were born in the 80's. They don't know that most people are so sick of hearing "Sunglasses At Night" and "Girls Just Want To Have Fun".I like those songs too,but I have to be in the mood to listen to them.

So I thought about what songs I liked growing up in the 80's and it was pretty diverse.I didn't put a lot on here that I wanted(Public Enemy, Dead Milkmen,King Diamond) because it would be a 2-cd set.

These are songs that I like. There are lot's of memories tied up in these songs and some helped me out getting through the teen years.But ask yourself,if you grew up in the 80's, what would you put on yours?

You managed to get four songs from the 80's that I love, and the whole mix was eclectic and fun! I drank a lot in the 80's, but what I remember of it was bloody fun!
