denimhead Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 i was just listening to my satellite radio .. 80's channel .. ive always thought the 80's was strong in european based pop/rock bands ....what with duran duran, spandau, police etc but now that ive been listening to a lot of 80's music i think US artists were stronger .. Springsteen, Springfield, Cars, Aerosmith, MJ, GoGos, GNR etc i always thought new wave music was really good... now that i think of it new wave is just electro heavy rock. Quote Link to comment

hitman531ph Posted August 12, 2006 Author Share Posted August 12, 2006 Rick Astley's first album, Whenever You Need Somebody, came out in 1987. The album chalked up 3 US and UK Top 10 hits, Never Gonna Give You Up, Whenever You Need Somebody and Together Forever. Two other songs, It Would Take a Strong, Strong Man and Don't Say Goodbye, also made it to the airwaves. In between albums, Rick Astley had a single, My Arms Keep Missing You, in 1988. In 1989, Rick Astley came up with a second album which was not as successful as the first album and basically remained a dancefloor album. She Wants to Dance With Me did considerably well. It was in 1991 when Rick Astley came up with his third album "Free" which saw Rick Astley hit the US and UK Top 10 once more with a song called Cry For Help. It was also the last time Rick Astley had a chart hit. Quote Link to comment

Grimace Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Song by Dream Academy..my favorite..one hit wonder nga lang Life in a Northern Town A Salvation Army band playedAnd the children drank lemonadeAnd the morning lasted all day,All dayAnd through an open window cameLike Sinatra in a younger day,Pushing the town awayAh - (Chant)Ah hey ma ma maLife in a northern town. They sat on the stoney groundAnd he took a cigarette outAnd everyone else came downTo listen.He said "In winter 1963It felt like the world would freezeWith John F. KennedyAnd the Beatles." (Chant)Ah hey ma ma maLife in a northern town.Ah hey ma ma maAll the work shut down. The evening had turned to rainWatch the water roll down the drain,As we followed him downTo the stationAnd though he never would wave goodbye,You could see it written in his eyesAs the train rolled out of sightBye-bye. (Chant)Ah hey ma ma maLife in a northern town.Ah hey ma ma maLife in a northern town. Quote Link to comment
