Following up on the Lloyd Dobbler vs Benny the Jet Urquidez English Beat clip from above...

What was it with John Cusack & awesome scenes with 80's music?

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kz6Kcz62onA"]YouTube - Better Off Dead - (Everybody Wants Some)[/ame]

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-j379JbL-xM"]YouTube - Say Anything (1989)[/ame]

Everyone remembers that scene but what would have happened if they had stuck with the original music (Fisbhone)?

I listened to everything in the 80s, but my single favorite song from the decade is probably the Police's Synchronicity II. The driving beat, the lyrics ... no other band could ever pull this song off, and the arrangement was so far ahead of its time considering the Solid Gold/Top of the Pops stuff that was on the radio in 1983. This still blows my doors off every time I hear it.

Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist.

Old joke.

What's the difference between God and Phil Collins?

God created Genesis

Phil destroyed it.

I attended tOSU in the early 80's so I like some 80's music. It brings back great memories (Mean Mr. Mustard's)
