For the last month or so, I've been listening to "80s on 8" on XM Radio.

The hosts are some of the original MTV..... uhhhhhh, hosts.

Good memories.

Oh The Hooters, totally forgot about them. Great videos but you forgot this one

I have a video folder and in it a music folder and in it a folder of 80's. I think the 80's had the very best music of any decade. I liked the music, MTV was new and the videos were simple but good, just the best music! The Cars, Foreigner, Super Tramp, Cheap Trick, The Cure, Bon Jovi, English alternative bands, the list is endless.
