Hey, Mysterywhylay, the guys in Duran Duran were HOT! Give me Simon Le Bon in full make up anyday! I don't think you have anything to be ashamed of. Have you seen Robert Smith of the Cure, lately? They have a new video and he is still wearing the full face of white make up, red lips, and eyeliner! You'd think he'd be over it, by now...Besides, I have a friend who admits to once sporting the Flock of Seagulls hair cut! Now, there is just NO excuse for that one.

Flock of seagulls hairdo!! I think I got that beat....Mines was like Gary Numans (mumble mumble) with red streak as well. Not sure my schoolteachers liked it though. Such is life. Thanks though...you made me feel much better.

I love the 80's. The music, music television, the movies, the cheesyness. Anything went. Mtv played music and was on half a day. Pac-man, Ms. Pac-man!!! and my favorite, the over-extensive use of neon colors. Kangaroos tennis shoes, ah, man. My hair was always shaved, though, but, i listened to hair bands, not that much, though, but my most favorite were the girl bands a.k.a., Romeo Void, Siouxsie and The Banshees, and The Plasmatics, the Pretenders.

Ok. So what was so great about the 80's? I was a small child in the 80's. But I remember some things about it. And I'm really into collecting stuff from the era. I love all of the brat pack movies. And I'm into the 80's music and clothing. Yeah I just came out of the closet with that one lol. But i'm not into the big hair. Anway anyone else find that they are particularily fond of the era?

Howdy nancy,

The 80's was a good time for me,my daughter,was born in 1980, and I made more money in the oil patch,than any other time. I also had a valuable experience in the 80's,when I went to Saudi and drilled water wells,I learned after that experience,just how great a nation America is,and how blessed I am to be an American. I also became disabled during the last of the 80's..and that part,sucked. The best thing about the 80's,was my daughter being born,and Ronald Reagan,saving America,after Carter..as well as Reagan bringing down the Soviet Union and the Berlin wall.

Have a good one...

to hell with the hairdo's what about them jeans! HAHAHA

My favorite jeans had zippers at the bottom and black lace all the way up to the knee. I also had a matching black lace cropped jacket with shoulder pads. One day I was doing laundry and I spilled bleach on the jeans...I was devastated.

I was born.....

Haha, yeah me too.

The only thing's I remember about the 80's are...

Big hair,
Power ballad's,
Monster truck's and destruction derby's,
The fucking awful ukrainian cigarettes my Dad used to smoke,
Cheap black veneered furniture,
Burger stand's within 300 yard's of wherever you went, and...
Commodore 64's.
