Adie of the 80's take a walk down memo lane
Current mood: complacent
Hi peoples. How's it going. I like 80's music lately ALOT. Sometimes I think it has to do with my name being 80 and all.
So let's hit a few faves once again.
Eternal Flame By the Bangles. Oh this song makes me smile. My first tape ever. What was yours? Kyrie Eleison Does anyone know what the crap I am talking about? This SONG is pretty cool. It says this old chant that means God Have Mercy. This song is by Mr. Mister . He sings Kierie Eleison down the road that I must travel Kierie Eleison through the darkness of the night..... etc. etc. etc. Toy Soldiers This one's by Martika and later Eminem used it . Girl, I'm Gonna Miss You It's a tragedy for me to see the dream is over, and I never will forget the day we met, GIGMY. you remember Father Figure George Michael This song is kind of really perverted but it is still so damn good and I don't even know why. True Spandau ballet OK damn I love this song. I think it's really because once I got so crazy high with Ruebi and then I did all this really fun ballet to the song and it was like I WAS THE SONG. you get it. Don't You Forget About Me i really don't need to say much more about this one Heaven I totally dig this song by Bryan Adams .... and baby your'e all that I need, when I'm lyin here in your arms I need to cover this one with some people sometime With or Without You yes of course u2 hit the nail for this one JUST LIKE HEAVEN I have loved this song for so freaking long that it is stupid. I think perhaps I have FINALLY reached the point where it is just not All That to me anymore. But I will still jump around to it if I'm dancing. Living on a Prayer this song is by a band called Bon Jovi and it made my 6th grade heart go crazy. Freedom Lately this song is in my brain, by WHAM this is a really good song. I recommend a listen in the near future.
OK so now you go through the songs in your mind and think about the memory, anything, you associate with it. Sorry kids, this one's for the 1980 and before borners. Eternal Flame was the dream of my heart, 6th grade. My first tape because I was the oldest and a late bloomer. It reminds me of Deborah with the big boobs in 6th grade, and throwing fake bags of yellow dyed water at the boys across the street and telling them it was pee. Kyrie Eleison This song reminds me of my first trip out of state. To Utah, because I was Mormon, and so it was really exciting to see a freeway and a salt flat and wear cute skirts and be thirteen and in Junior High. Oh boys, oh how we loved the boys. Toy Soldiers I kind of get a yucky feeling about this song. Like someone tripped me at the Roller Rink or something I can't put my finger on it. Maybe it was just the rat race of being a G.A.T.E. kid in a junior high for "special" kids far away from my friends from elementary. Girl I'm Gonna Miss You OK this song gives me a good feeling. Things were exciting. I probably got my period and made gross jokes about bra sizes with my friend Lynsee while we did a paper route at 5 in the morning by her house. We drank peach schnapps, the first liquor I did ever taste. But just a taste. Father Figure Another taste of 6th grade. babysitting alot. The only good thing that ever came from babysitting was that I got to eat alot of new flavors of ice cream, watch MTV after the kids were sleeping, and read the sex scenes from the mom's romance novels. True Maybe songs like this were on par with People are People by Depeche Mode, and were the first hints in me that I was taking a "progressive" style. What the hell? Later it was practically all out MOD. Don't You Forget About Me well, this song sinks in along the more mod era in me. dancing really lankily and wearing lots of black and knee highs, well pretty much dressing practically the same as I do now. OK I AM GETTING BORED. THIS WAS A FUN IDEA, but it's over now. So anyways, if you ever have too much time on your hands, try it out. Oh WAIT, Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam is on right now with HEAD TO TOE.
I am out. Love you all.
