Love those 80's!

Ooops, got my dates wrong. The song I was thinking of stole the bass line from Fly Girls. The one I was going for was 1985's Let's Go All The Way by Sly Fox (GREAT SONG, listening to it now, yes it's on my iPod). Oh well, I'm a poor mix master!

Ok, here's another one... who are they, or better, what's their top song from '88?

Hint: What's the forecast look like?


No idea! Looks like Malcolm Jamal Warner, Joan Van Ark and one of the Beastie Boys from their Sabotage video :rotfl:

No, but I see it! LOL Their music is classified as freestyle (think Breakin'), and they broke into the Top 10 in '88.
 
Well i came of age in the 70's but can't remember much of the 70's, too much partying with, dang i forget what. LOL Now the 80's i finally settled down and started having a family. 2 kids in the 80's and one in the 90's. The 80's were fun but the 70's were before aids so we had free love (sex) LOL
 

Here's a real knee-slapper, my big-hair pic from 8th grade, 1980...

I went to college with the lead singer of White Lion's cousin.... he looked just like him... he should, their dads were brothers and moms were sisters.

Yep, that's the group, Will to Power. Best known for Say It's Gonna Rain, top 10 in '88... but the medley is good too. Good job! :thumbsup2

But the "weather" hint just wouldnt fit anywhere...glad I left that one for someone else to answer....because i couldnt have been more wrong!!! I like that you have this Funk/R&B angle....I was a fan of the Minneapolis sound and all the protege's that Prince helped to promote. Morris Day has always been a favorite because he's a ridulously funny idiot!! I had an ear for George Clinton and Parliment too. Bow wow wow, yippee oh yippee aye!!

Ok..no sense in wasting a posted pic...can anyone name the above trio? They had several New Wave hits...the name of their group would lead you to believe they were a duo vs a trio.
 
Oh man...great stuff....remember these lyrics...same style(same group!!)

Freakazoid....robots...please..report...to the....dancefloor


or


(different group...laid back)
If you wanna ride....dont ride the white horse

(dont know the name of this group)
or Crack killed applejack, he jumped in and he couldnt jump back, he was just too blind to see the fact.....death lives in the rock house
