I have lists of the Top 100 songs for each of the past 30 years.....The stuff is out there as long as you Google it.

Btw, A_Perfect_Circle: I like your pic. The eyes and smile remind me of Linda Carter's from when I watched "Wonder Woman" as kid. Talk about childhood crushes... ohwell


Thanks for the compliment :)

You are quite welcome.

To be honest, I stealth viewed your profile, just out of curiosity, since I'm not looking for anything. But yeah, you definitely have beautiful blue eyes....that deep kind of blue. I'm a sucker for stuff like that. I also know a lot of guys that are the same way.

LOL I know it was Eddie Murphy. I hadn't seen it in so long that when I saw it, I remembered Prince had a similar look at one point.

Oh, btw, Lady In Red by Chris DeBurgh is one of my favorite romantic songs. I'm a softy, I guess.

Ahaha. I haven't looked at this song the same way again after that local scandal.

Actually, "Careless Whisper" is by WHAM!, which George Michael was part of.
"Jitterbug (Wake me up before you go-go)" was another one of WHAM!'s hits.

Of course, we can't forget about all the Hair Bands from the 80s either. Poison, Cinderella, Winger, White Lion....I look at the outfits Journey used to wear and laugh my arse off.

And how about the Miami Vice look? Somewhere I think I still have one of those jackets like Don Johnson used to wear.

And then, suspenders became fashionable again too. I used to have a pair of pants with a tight, latino-style cut that came with button on suspenders. Used to wear them with a sleeveless shirt because my arms were chiseled.

I, uh, got stuck in a stage rush at a Dio concert in 1989. Yngwie Malmsteem was the opening act, and I could see the backstage area. Boy, was that guy a nut job. They had to get him off stage, and bring Dio out early.
