RonJonSurfer Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 It didn't come to my mind... It was so early in the 80's that it seems like late 70's...does that make sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chutzpah Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 When's the cut-off day? I might nominate 1 or 2 but,the weather here is not too good I already have 65 hours at work and I'm scheduled this weekend Could I maybe nominate 1? And, if time allows 2? If not I apologize to everyone I was really looking forward to this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 (edited) of course you can nominate just one, no rule against that as for the cut off date... I'm not sure... Edited September 8, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted September 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 (edited) chutz, we'll wait a few days for you, too. Make it a good'un. Also, Ace ..... Since MC changed his nomination, you're good with Master of Puppets. If you'd like to give us 1 other, that would be great, but you certainly don't have to, you can just go with 1 nomination as well.

Shawna Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 wow... in researching '80s albums, I am amazed that I'd forgotten how much good music came out of the early '80s - particularly, for some reason for me, 1982 stands out. Pat Benatar - Get Nervous, Rick Springfield - Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet, Michael Jackson - Thriller... So it was tougher than I bargained for picking just two, but I went with two that mean a lot to me for one reason or another... 1. Hurts So Good Jack and Diane Hand to Hold on To Danger List Can You Take It Thundering Hearts China Girl Close Enough Weakest Moments and Caught Up in You Back Door Stranger Back on the Track Chain Lightnin' Rough-Housin' You Keep Runnin' Away Breakin' Loose Take 'Em Out Firestarter Both from 1982 (if someone can fix the size of that gigantic Mellon, that would be appreciated) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lea Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 I always thought the 80's were terrible years for music until we did this 80's special. One of the worst years for music ever and it got even worse later. Or so I thought I had forgotten how awesome some of the music back then really was I'm having a seriously hard time picking just ten. Every album nominated so far is awesome. Not a bad one among them I truly hope the 90's special we'll be doing has the same effect on me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted September 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 I know, I've been thinking the same thing. There's a lot of good stuff here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 I always thought the 80's were terrible years for music until we did this 80's special. One of the worst years for music ever and it got even worse later. Or so I thought I still do, Lea... Actually I missed the sixties while I was working in the music scene during the 80s and was friends with the musicians and even maried one (and date many of them) But there was some very good stuff too...
