A little throwback to songs from 1980, I was in high school and it was the beginning of a great decade of music. If you were a fan of rock music in 1980, and you lived in the Philly area, you most likely listened to WMMR radio station. Here are the top ten ROCK hits from that year according to Playlistresearch.com:

the beginning of MTV
That’s Trevor Horn with the big glasses. Became a huge producer – Yes’s “Owner of a Lonely Heart”, Seal’s “Crazy”, etc.
The real guitar God of our age. What a loss to music. Listen to Stevie’s version of “Little wing” for full perspective
For all you Texicins who have drunk water out of hoof print
Was in HS as well…
Lots of REM songs. Earlier work
One for AP:
Lots of good music I’m adding to my playlist.
I was young. 🙂
But I listen to just about everything.
Yep, that’s a good one.
Yes, thank you. 🙂 She’s lucky.
Hoodoo Gurus…brings back the memories of a vinyl wore out.
I wondered how Psych Furs would have played live. You know.
If you’ve ever seen the tv series “the Americans”, set in the 80’s they had some good background music. Roxy Music, Leonard Cohen, Fleetwood Mac, Eddie Rabbitt..
Love many of the songs listed. One of my faves from 1980.
And another…the music teacher gave us free fridays. She hated this song. It was popular at the roller rink.
Either she liked it, too, or she was paid well to rap it. Thanks for the musical distraction of songs from 1980, Admin.
