Nostalgic 80s songs

[Guest]

Technically, you're supposed to list nostalgic songs. I haven't thought of any, yet, but I'm working on it. Summer of 69, maybe.

Funny.

What about Come Dancing by the Kinks? "Where the big bands used to play."

Funny.

Actually, it makes for a totally way better thread, because we've done "favorite 80s songs" probably ten times already.

Pretenders, My City Was Gone.

Also Memory. CATS was written in the 80s, right?

The entire song is an homage to nostalgia....a boy thinking back to when his sister would be courted and taken out to go dancing. Now the dance hall has been torn down and a supermarket stands in its place.

Speaking of sad nostalgia, Back to the Old House by The Smith. Poor moz.

Okay, that's really more regret than nostalgia, but still.

Uh, Glory Days is better.

That one's so obvious I was embarrassed to even suggest it. Plus, you didn't post the video.

Or cheerful nostalgia about houses in the middle of the street, that was where we used to sleep.

Always Something There to Remind Me...Naked Eyes.

How many of us can relate to the nostalgia of lost love....being reminded at every turn of how things used to be?

It is evident to me that 8Ball Rollin can read thread titles.

lol. I'm surprised some of you didnt list Thriller or Material Girl.

It has dawned on me that most of you will not be participating in this thread today because you can't use wikipedia.
