Favorite singers and groups

currently very into orchestral manoeuvres in the dark (omd), but i also like (and i know a good chunk of the bands i'm about to list were formed before the 80s but i'm adding them if they were associated with that period in general) bad religion, depeche mode, minor threat, fugazi, the clash, kraftwerk, operation ivy, blondie, talking heads, tears for fears, new order, erasure, and probably some other stuff i'll think of later.

Queen and Wham! are my favs!

The B-52's Rock, and Weird al and anyone he's parodied!

Michael Jackson, Metallica, Bon Jovi, Van Halen, Cinderella, Madonna, Prince, Motley Crue, and The Cure <3

Hello.

I would like to start by stating I am definitely NOT an alien. 

Now that this is cleared up... 

I am involved with some other earthlings of whom make very 80's inspired music. You might just like it. Or maybe you won't, as long as you know that I am NOT an alien. 

I see nobody has mentioned Robin Zander yet.

Some of my fav singers of the 80's have got to be Morrissey, Robert Smith, Bernard Sumner (Ian Curtis, too!), David Sylvian, Peter Murphy, and Martin Newell. These are all I can list off the top of my head, though.

I really like Simple Minds, Peter Cetera, Eric Carman, Tears For Fears, a-ha, Ozzy, and Vixen. Those are the ones I listen to the most anyway.

Hello everybody I brand new here….I really enjoy music from the eighties- pretty much everything listed above with a few glaring exceptions- but what I really remember about the times was being exposed to live music for the first time. I was finally old enough to go out and see live music, and most of what I saw/heard was local effort with varying degrees of professionalism or musicianship.  I confess that most of the popular music of the day sorta drifted by barely noticed by me as I became very quickly enamored by local musicians playing original material.  My curiosity grew to include regional artists, artists from larger, more influential culture densities, and those from from really far flung, obscure places.  It was like living in a world of two musics, because, of course it was impossible to not hear Michael Jackson or The Allman Brothers or Madonna when I was flipping meat discs at McD’s or driving around with the radio on lookin for something to do, or waltzing around the mall…I just kind of got soaked in it for free. 

As a huge fan of the 80s, I love almost every artist from the decade but my all time favorite is my teen queen Debbie Gibson <3
