Are You From The 80s?

[Vee]

sigmund the sea monster, nail clippers, jojo alajar had a dance trio.. penthouse live, ate vee still had a show where she would dance, flor de luna and ana liza were still hits on tv, electric company and sesame street were educational shows, uncle bob's lucky 7 club was still alive, and so was banco filipino's happy savers club. DX diamos where Richard was always screaming for Erica and Prince Zandoz was the bad dude. Mekanda robot, Aphrodite A and Mazinger Z and Koji Kabuto. We still had the small tex you could get when buying from tarzan, and you could exchange your bottles for cheese curls. Buhay pa nga ang choco-vim. Gabby Concepcion and Janice de Belen were an item. Sharon was linked with someone else.. Star Wars was just in the 2nd movie, and Pepsi Paloma was still alive. New Wave wasn't a phase it was a mode of living.

it's funny, but in a lotta ways, i am still stuck to the 80s. still think that the music was better...ok so the clothes and hairstyle was crap but who cares? as long as there's new wave in the background, ok na and yeah, i dunno why, but i often do great renditions of classic new wave anthems....band out there looking...for vox...hehehe.

nga pala tanong lang. dontcha think that the early, early U2 songs sound like the old The Dawn songs? not to mention they had the same themes...just asking.

[michael_angelo_03]

i like the life back then. miss it so much.

 

miss watchin perfect strangers, alfie and mcgyver, manimal, knight rider and one million chance of a lifetime.

 

miss watchin bioman and shaider.

 

miss playin atari then family computer.

 

miss elementary school.

 

miss seeing people wear tigh pants.

 

i miss being eight years old.

You know you're from the 80's if

*You wore biker shorts underneath a short skirt and felt stylish.

*You wore tights under shorts and felt stylish.

*You ever had a Swatch Watch.

*You can remember what Michael Jackson looked like before his nose fell off. Or even when he had those freaky eyes in

''Thriller'' at the end of the video.

*You wore a banana clip or one of those slap on wrist bands at some point during your youth.

*You wore french rolls on the botom of your splatter painted jeans.

*You had slouch socks, and puff painted your own shirt at least once

*You know the profound meaning of ''Wax on, Wax off.''

*You fell victim to 80's fashion: big hair, crimped, combed over to the side, and you wore spandex pants.

*You knew ''The Artist'' when he was humbly called ''Prince.''

*You ever wore flourescent -neon if you will clothing...(or nailpolish)

*You could breakdance, or wished you could.

*You know who Max Headroom is.

*You remember when ATARI was a state of the art video game system. (Remember Pong?)

*You know all the words to ''Ice Ice Baby''.

*You remember MC hammer well.

*You own any cassettes.

*You were led to believe that in the year 2000 we'd all be living on the moon.
