Atari pa ang gamit ko nun, asteroids yung laro.

 

Yung glorietta hiwalay hiwalay pa.

 

Rizal theater at hinde shangri-la ang nasa kanto ng ayala at makati ave.

 

Dapat baston ang pantalon mo para cool.

 

Rayban lang ang uso na shades.

 

Malinis pa ang manila bay at pag may ubo o sipon ka kailangan mong lumanghap ng amoy ng tubig dagat doon.

 

Yes I'm from the 80s, its good to hear the sounds of the 80s.

The '80s, wow memories of my childhood! I was a gradeschooler all throughout this decade. I graduated elementary in 1990. Here'w what I remember about this decade:

 

I was grade school in San Beda, early to mid-80s, downfall na ng Marcos-era kaya ang daming rally sa Mendiola. Kaya marami kaming half day classes, early dismissal and suspended classes due to the rallies. However when Cory took over, the rallies at Mendiola didn't end. Remember the Mendiola massacre?

 

Basketball: The Celtics and Lakers ruled the NBA. Jordan was nothing more than a scoring machine who couldn't win at this point in his career. Sa PBA naman, Toyota and Crispa were the kings during the early part of the decade. Mid-80s, Tanduay and Great Taste (remember Ricky Brown?) na. Late-80s, Ginebra and Purefoods na. Sikat pa na basketball shoes noon, Converse (si Bird and Magic kasi ang endorsers nila) at Grosby and Kaypee sa local basketball.

 

Yung Coke Litro noon naalala ko 5 pesos lang. Yung baon kong 20 pesos okay nang pang lunch and recess. Pamasahe sa PUJ, 75 cents lang.

 

I only started listening seriously to music in 1988. NU 107 yung unang exposure ko. Sadly, hindi ko na naabutan ang XB 102. Power 105 pa yung isang new wave station although 99.5 RT played new wave in the late '80s also. My favorite bands were the Cure, Depeche Mode, New Order. Sa local, the Dawn opened the door for bands to enter the mainstream music scene which was then dominated by solo artists like Gary Valenciano and Martin Nievera. Identity Crisis is also noteworthy as another new wave/goth band who got signed by a major label.

 

I was too young to go party during this decade so I can't comment on the gimmick scene back then.

 

More '80s memories to come!

Heavy Metal took a back seat and plenty of pop acts sprouted...

 

Heavy metal didn't take a back seat in the '80s. It was actually metal's best decade:

 

In 1980 alone, there were four major milestones:

 

1) Ozzy Osbourne released his debut album, "Blizzard of Ozz" which launched his very successful solo career.

 

2) His old band Black Sabbath also released thier first album w/ former Rainbow/Elf singer Ronnie James Dio, "Heaven and Hell." It turned out to be a critical success.

 

3) Iron Maiden also released their self-titled debut album. After two albums, the band kick out Paul Di'Anno and replace him with former Samson singer Bruce Dickinson. Maiden would release seven critically acclaimed albums throughout the '80s and play to sold out shows throughout the world.

 

4) Judas Priest released "British Steel" which was their breakthrough album in the US.

 

Hair metal was huge in the '80s! It was staple fare on MTV throughout the decade. In the early '80s, Van Halen, Twisted Sister, Ratt, Quiet Riot and Motley Crue ruled the TV airwaves.

 

In the mid to late '80s, more hair metal bands dominated MTV and the Billboard charts: Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Cinderella, Winger, Warrant, Skid Row and Guns 'N Roses would surface.

 

There were also a lot of metal bands who didn't cater to the MTV audience and were firmly underground (at the time) who had their creative peak during the '80s and it was in this decade that they released their most critically-acclaimed albums. I'm talking about bands like: METALLICA, SLAYER, MEGADETH, ANTHRAX, BATHORY, DEATH, TESTAMENT, SEPULTURA, MERCYFUL FATE, KING DIAMOND, OVERKILL among others.

 

So, I don't think that heavy metal took a back seat in the '80s. In fact, metal was more mainstream in the '80s because of the hair metal bands.

well, if anybody here has got a good memory, can you tell us please kung ano ung nauna, kaluskos musmos ba or kulit bulilit  :D

 

Kuskos Balungos? I don't remember this TV series, or baka masyado na akong matanda nung lumabas yun kaya hindi na ko nagka interest  :D

 

Nauna Kaluskos Musmos (channel 9) which had Maricel Soriano, Maila Gumila, Herbert Bautista, etc. Sunod Kulit Bulilit which was hosted by Imee Marcos, had the opportunity to be with Kulit Bulilit (channel 13). Di lang nag click Kulit Bulilit kasi "educational" and orientation ng show. We used to tape sa Broadcast City where channel 9 and 13 are both located. We get to play with Kaluskos Musmos kids during our break. :cool:

 

Ang competitor namin that time was Uncle Bob's Lucky 7 Club (channel 7). Medyo sosy coz english speaking sila. :P
