Welcome to a Monday's Music Moves Me, the fantabulistic music meme hosted by me, my dearest of friends Dolly from XmasDolly, Callie from Jamerican Spice and the wonderful Stacy from Stacy Uncorked. This week's theme is Music from the 1980's! So, what's moving you today???
Let's just say, in my opinion, the music of the '80s just doesn't do much for me in general. I was still listening to the great rock 'n roll of the '60s and '70s but I did manage to find some decent music from my four years in high school, 1980 - 1983 to be precise. Here they are in chronological order for you.....
Another Brick in the Wall ~ Pink Floyd
..... Gotta love Pink Floyd!
I Love Rock and Roll ~ Joan Jett and The Blackhearts
..... funny thing, I just sold my black leather pants at our community porch and yard sale this weekend.
Sweet Dreams ~ Eurythmics
..... I love Annie Lennox's voice, have you seen her lately? She looks so much different, but still has those beautifully expressive eyes.
Jump ~ VanHalen
..... there's nothing like an '80s "hair band!" =)

We're very sorry to say there are some people not playing along just using our linky to get traffic for their blogs! Unfortunately, these bloggers will be marked and ignored, you will not get any benefit from our linky, so don't bother. All we ask is that you leave a comment, grab our button, ad/or follow us. If you don't want to post a video, you can post a link to a video, or post some lyrics, but please - at least attempt to make it music related. Thank you for your understanding. We will not follow you and we will not promote your blog!
*** Just one more thing...
PLEASE, we are family friendly blogs and while we really don't want to censor anyone,
but we do ask that you keep your songs rated PG13 or less.
If you find that you need to post songs of an explicit sexual nature or language,
please find a different venue. If your song does contain a small amount of questionable language, please put a disclaimer BEFORE the video.
Thank you very much!***
