(I Love it!!!!!!!!AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!So many great memories when I hear these songs!)

Take a trip back to the 80's when Grammy-winning singer/songwriter Richard Marx ruled the radio with nineteen Top 20 Singles, including seven #1 hits. With more than 30 million records sold, his rock-inspired musical style ranges from upbeat pop to romantic ballads to soul-searching tunes. His debut single "Don't Mean Nothin" was followed by Now and Forever, Endless Summer Nights, Hazard, Shoulda Known Better, Hold On To The Nights, Right Here Waiting, Angelia, Satisfied and The Way She Loves Me. A prolific songwriter, Richard won a 2004 Song of the Year Grammy for "Dance With My Father," which he co-wrote with Luther Vandross. With the release of his new album, My Own Best Enemy, Richard is touring again and better than ever!

My favorite memory from the 80's is all the time I spent pegging my jeans so they wouldn't come unrolled.  Isn't it funny that we want the exact opposite now!

I graduated from high school in 1984, so I remember the 80's very well!  I love how many of our hair and clothing styles are being repeated now -even leg warmers!!!  I love Richard Marx!  I think my favorite memory is mullets- my little brother had one.  Growing up in Payson, it was the cool thing. :D :D  :D

How about shoulder pads, Adam Ant, Bananarama, INXS, acid washed jeans, and my absolute favorite... FOOTLOOSE!! It was filmed at my high school (Payson High) and yes I met Kevin Bacon (he asked me if I had a cigarette :-\) and Sarah Jessica Parker.  They hired much of our studentbody as extras and I still love to watch it and see myself and all my buddies from high school!!!

Easy answer for me! The Fashion--the Bright Colors, My favorite outfit consisted of a shirt that was fluorescent green and fluorescent pink that I tied in the corner, with my HUGE bangs, divided down the middle of course with half curled up and half curled down, a Pontail on top of my head,  the stirup pants. leg warmers, and my hot pink hightops.... oh the days  :D

Girbaud jeans, leg warmers, BIG bangs, ratting your hair out, not up.  WOW!  There's a trip down memory lane for you.  I would LOVE to go to Richard Marx!!  Pick me! Pick me!

 I loved watching The Greatest American Hero and Smurfs.  I liked to do my hair with huge bangs and a ponytail off to the side.  I remember my older sister doing her hair with a bannana clip.  Fun stuff!!

You gals are making me laugh my pants off - I had forgotten some of those...one of my favorite shows of all time...

Greatest American Hero (Believe it or not I'm walking on air, I never thought I could feel so freeeeee. Flying away on a wing and a prayer, who could it be?  Believe it or not, it's just me!)


ROTF-LMPO :toothy12: :toothy12: :toothy12:

Ok...my 8 year old daughter was just watching the Richard Marx video and said:

"Why do they all have poofy hair"

"What did your hair look like in the olden days?"


Olden days?......she's SOOOOOOOOOO grounded!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is cracking me up.. I totally forgot about the banana clips.  I loved those!

I was pregnant and wearing stirup pants.  I thought it was the weirdest fashion ever.  I was glad that I could stop straightening my naturaly very curlly hair and be in fashion.  Pick me.

For a good flashback - check your library for DVDs of shows like "The Greatest American Hero" (SL county has 3 seasons).  I couldn't resist picking that one up a few weeks ago.  It wasn't nearly as good as I remember it and I've recently added the theme song to my I-tunes collection.  I still love hearing the song.

My sister would play some of these songs as I would wonder if she could get her bangs any higher.  Would love to go!   :D

My greatest memory of the 80's is the music!!!  I still listen to it all the time and have converted my children to great music.  I just love Styx, REO Speedwagon, Journey, Chicago, Richard Marx (of course!!!), Lionel Richie, Rick Springfield, Survivor, Boston, Kansas, Blondie, Toto, Air Supply... I'll still never forget watching my first music video on MTV--"Thriller" by Michael Jackson.  Ah, those were the days...  (Pick me and help me "celebrate" the week I turn 40!!!)  :) ;) :'(

I AM the child of the 80's - graduating in 1987 (AGH!  20 years!!!) I lived through Madonna, Michael Jackson and more!  I watched the Thriller video at least 1000 times to learn the dance and used to perform it for my siblings - poor kids - that must have been torture!

My hubby got a new car with a free XM radio trial and it never leaves the 80's channel!  My mini skirt and leg warmers will stay at home if I get to go to the concert!  LOL

Ok, so I was only in early elementary during the 80's but I do remember wanting to crimp my hair, and wondering why my babysitters boyfriends pants were so tight. I also remember alf, smurfs, punky brewster & ghostbusters.

I know I'm not eligible to go (won the tickets to Darryl Worley), but just wanted to let you all know I am getting a kick out your responses!  I was also in early elementary during the 80's but I do remember some MC Hammer "diaper pants" I wore... very cool.

the 80's were hillarious! i remember dying to get a pair of jellies and an esprit (?sp?)bag. loved the bright neon color clothing. i always looked forward to saturday morning cartoons. i remember the commercial "excuse, are those bugle boy jeans?" thought karate kid (ralph m) was drop dead goregous. i remember collecting garbage pail kid cards. lol   :D oh i still have star brite somewhere in boxes back home. music was great.......... we are the world ......... electric youth ........ its my perogative (that was my first tape ever!!) i'm still jealous that my older sister got a swatch watch and i never did!! boy, i could go on forever............ i love the 80s!  :D ;) :) 8)

I was actually born in the 80's, but I sure do remember them.  I was blessed (cursed) with naturally curly hair, so I had the greatest set of 'windjammer' bangs from the time I was 3.  My mom participated in high impact aerobic competitions and I remember thinking that those were the best looking leotards ever, especially when paired with leg warmers, hightops and the big ponytails.  Amazingly enough, all my siblings and I have acquired a taste for 80's music.  We actually took my dad to RUSH this week, but we love Journey, Bryan Adams, AC/DC, Don Henley, Billy Idol, Def Leppard, and of course Richard Marx, just to name a few.  Count me in!

How about wearing two different colored socks (stacked right on top of eachother) with earrings that matched in the same color!

OK....... But, who waited for years for Sybill and Bruce to kiss on moonlighting or Remington Steele to kiss Laura?  :love6: :love5: :love6:

Jelly shoes, bright funky shorts, and of course the best of all, the music!  I would LOVE to go to a Richard Marx concert!

I guess turning 40 isn't all that bad!  You're the winner Pirahna!!!!!!  :D :D :D :D
I'll pm you with the details!

I can't even tell you how excited I am!!!!  Thanks!!!!! :D :D :D  Maybe turning 40 will be wonderful after all! ;)

Congrats!! You are going to have a blast!

I LOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVE RICHARD MARX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you were there tonight and saw all those crazy ladies dancing down front-----That's right, I was there screaming my lungs out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

It was fun to meet you Pirahna!  If I had seen where you were sitting I would have made you dance with  us!!!!  :D

The concert last night was so AMAZING!!!!!!  :D My husband and I had a great time!!  I saw Amy dancing down in front, she should be a traveling Richard Marx dancer!!!  ;) Richard Marx was better than I could have ever dreamed.  He not only has great talent (obviously) but he was just fun to listen to and has a great sense of humor.  His airplane "experience" was quite a hoot!!  :D  I enjoyed meeting Amy, Cara, and Tammy--what wonderful women we have to help us. Thanks again for the wonderful concert!!!!!!!!!!!  :D
