Found some songs amongst my Mp3's that brought back some old memories of times back in high school. Kind of brought a smile on and wondered if anyone wanted to share what bands you liked back in high school.
Some of the bands that brought memories back for me were Wham, Kool & The Gang, BlackBox, Billy Idol, Chaka Khan, Culture Club, Hall & Oates, Pseudo Echo, Earth Wind & Fire, Salt n Pepa, Soul II Soul.
There's some of the groups that I can remember, let us know what your favorite bands were back then. Don't be shy to show your age.

      Hahaha, thanks Mr Poo, Beastie Boys now that brings back memories and I agree, RUN DMC, NWA, Public Enemy, 2 Live Crew were just great. I used to love RUN DMC and 2 Live Crew they were rap bands that kicked ass compared to todays rap.

    Jr. High school was Beastie Boys for me and I liked Run DMC the rest of it I'm not real big into. We had a local high school band I don't remember the name but they were really good and they played AC/DC, Aerosmith, and Van Halen.
    1. time2getdown
      Oh yeah, well AC/DC, Aerosmith, and Van Halen were real rock groups. Like your choice.

      I lost my voice when I was thirteen trying to hit Halford's "You don't know what it's liiiiiiiiike," from Breaking the Law. After that, I pretty much stuck to Air Supply.

      My church minister loved it when this one kid wore his Judas Priest leather jacket to services every sunday.

      The Mormon Tabernacle Choir?, hahahaha. Your a funny man. Thanks
  7. time2getdown
    Brianomaracroft, no wonder you lost your voice to that song. You just about need a metal platted throat to sing that song.
  8. time2getdown
    Hi exit2013, thanks for your input. I remember them, far out, that one I forgot about. I'm sure I would find one of their CDs around my place somewhere if I looked. They were so popular back then and I really like them. Good choice as well with that particular song. Funny film clip, kind of silly but funny. Slaps in the face in the beginning of the clip to the beat of the song. Yeah why not, its fun.
  9. time2getdown
    Hey wonder if anyone recognizes or remembers this song.
