Were these the only bands around in the 80s??

and what about Bananarama? I was about 6 or 7 (I loved them!!!) and my mum always used to have to backcomb my hair (so I could dance in front of the telly with them) before they came on top of the pops!!!!!!!!

I still love the 80's... listen to the DAB 80' / 90's channels most days!!

You missed out Human league and Shakatak, 2 bands that are still going strong with original line ups and who tour all the time,

I still go to watch them both live as often as possible.

The league I will see live again for the umpteeth time in Dec and shakatak in feb next year (if not before)

In answer to your question, I still listen to 80s music all the time

And to the poster above Hue and Cry supported Human League a couple of years ago

I still have a Hue and Cry CD in the car, and a couple of Paul Weller CDs.

I now listen to

Elbow
Maroon 5
Adele
Ameli Sandes
Plan B


I have all the Live Lounge Cds and the Dermot O'Leary ones.

I think I have moved with the times.

My 15 year old DD likes all of my music (over 250 cds) from Nina Simone to the modern stuff.
