Oingo Boingo. We were talking about Danny Elfman in another thread a while back and it got me thinking about his band. So I put on one of their old Cds I have...Boingo Alive...to be exact and here is my thoughts on what transpired. Which kinda fits into this thread. I loved this cd maybe twelve or thirteen years ago but after listening to it now [and this goes for a lot of 80s music ] it kinda sucks. Think about a lot of the music you listened to during that time period and you'll see.....it just doesn't hold up. Now listen to a lot of earlyer stuff, Stones, Doors, Allman Bros, Floyd,Skynyrd,Deep Purple,Beatles, all great music that doesn't seemed dated even today. OK maybe a little dated , but its still very listenable. Now try that with some A-HA, or Ratt or maybe a little Wang Chung...............everybody get down tonight, everybody wang chung tonight.....hmmm..that was kinda catchy.;)

BTW zwoti, the Talking Heads are great, but I still think of them as more of a 70s band.Their first album came out in 76 or 77. "Stop Making Sense" is one of my favorite concert DVDS.

Well, the Unforgive is from the early 90's already... But it's still a great song.

HOWEVA:

I liked Blister in the Sun, too. That's one of those "gets stuck in my head" songs.

And: Punk Rock Girl by the Dead Milkmen.

I liked a lot of They Might Be Giants tunes, too. Particularly Istanbul, Particle Man, and Anna Ng.

Thriller is good, too. Although I hate M.J.

Wow Stingy great list. Blister in the Sun is definetly my favorite 80s song and i just learned how to play the guitar part to it so i feel special :cool: And i love the Dead Milkmen. The Thing that Eats Hippies, and Bitchin Camero(sp) are my fav. songs. Also


When im walkin i strut my stuff and im so strung out. Im high as a kite, i just might, stop to check you out
