Went with Human League... I'm kinda surprised that a few of these are new wave... I would have thought they were considered pop.

I'm kind of using songs that are heavily based in keyboards as a guide.

Kind of funny that the list is in alphabetical order except Gary Numan and Howard Jones...

Not looking it up but is Pop Muzik the only 70's song on there?

Not surprisingly, I like all of these songs. I voted for the Human League, but it was a tough call.

If you look REALLY REALLY close (and use their first names), they're in perfect alphabetical order. ;)

So the phone book goes in alphabetical order by first name? Maybe in your utopia...

:lol: :lol: The things that ruffle your feathers! You can come and re-alphabetize my mp3s. There are 26,150 files. Pack a lunch.

If your point is that it should have been alphabetized by LAST name instead of first, how did you miss that Murray Head was also out of order? :doh:

Not sure why you ever choose to spar with me. You're not smart enough. I make an ass out of you every time.

Huh, learn something new everyday... I always thought Murray Head was a band (kind of like Jethro Tull)... I guess since I never liked them, make sense... Who would have thought Newbie could tell me something new...

 

And LOL @ your last line... You can be funny and delusional at the same time...

Because I always thought Murray Head was a band

 

Oh for crying out loud. I call you dumb and you prove you're even dumber than I thought. :doh:

Please go find a dead child thread. Why open a thread when you know absolutely nothing about the subject matter? Or else, just read it quietly and hope to learn something.

With the exception of the Human League, M, and Murray Head, each of these artists have songs that I like better than the ones listed. :thumbsup:

I don't hate posty. He just tries to hard to troll me and I always end up smacking him in the nose with a rolled up newspaper.

Coming from a metal guy......

 

 

 

Awesome list. Other than Naked Eyes- Promises Promises and Matthew Wilder- Break My Stride, all of those are great.

 

However, the winner is clear.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Safety Dance is the best "80s music" song. :banana:
