We would like to meet your brother. Not sure what you are implying here, but sure bring him on. Maybe he can explain what you are going on about.

Are you implying that Canada will have me killed, or just kick me out of North America altogether? I would just welcome the attention.

Just we three...three years ago...

Maybe she's a frog speaking moosefucker?

I mean.....80's....RULES?

Surely, being a plural it's 80's RULE.

It's in the water.

i can only remember up to 84 when i left school then some bits here and there, pinning a year down is tricky, there was a lot of good music, good parties and good other stuff!

I dj a New Wave night in Chicago, and it's crazy how many young people love the genre. I know bands like Interpol, Cut Copy and Hot Chip is a gateway to the bands from the 80's but it still surprises me how many kids I meet who really love the music and are not just there for nostalgia/fashion bullshit.

As much as I adore the 80's, Yazoo and Erasure will never sound good.

Tell that to Simon Lebon...

I do have to agree...the 80s were great...could do without Tiffany, Debbie Gibson etc., however. The thing that really bothers me though is that every defence has to be to bring up the fact that you are Canadian and insult Americans and the British...I don't get it? Who really cares? You're making us Canadians look bad! If you're not happy with someone's response fine but leave Canada out of it!

We prefer to be referred to as your friendly neighbours to the north rather than extension of the U.S. itself.

moosefucker? hmmm...that's a new one!

Okay..I have done my part as a good citizen and defended my nation...please go on.

I prefer chipmunk fondler..

However, us Brits tend to like Canadians, being one of the colonies etc, so its a bit disheartening to see this virtual divide being created between us and one of our former protectorates. Sod the French though. Except Jiphy.

dude

Talking to yourself will not fool us you spastic.

Of course there was good music... and Hip hop, Acid house, indie rock grew mostly underground and exploded by the end of the decade. An awful lot of awful tinny soulless pop music thou, and mainstream rock was a joke, the radio was so stagnant in the USA, and kids, there wasn't the internet to learn about different music and listen. There was MTV which was both a blessing and a curse. Pre-recorded cassettes sounded like shit and were a shitty product, but people bought them.

I think if the "kids nowadays" went back to the mid 80s they would be shocked by the lack of diversity in mainstream society, in America at least. The lack of diversity in stores to buy. The clothes were bland and crappy, and rather unsexy for both men and women. Possibly the worst hairstyles in the history of modern civilization. 10 years olds nowadays have better fashion sense nowadays.
