i.e. Legwarmers, Pac-man, Roller rinks, Nerds, Movies, TV shows, Culture Club, etc.
My favorite was going to the Roller Rink on Friday night and skating the Power Puff to Desperado. Especially in the summer when it was warm and they opened the windows. And lip syncing to Cyndi Lauper's Girls Just Wanna Have Fun or She Bop! I also loved the Goonies and Ralph Machio!

The Littles! Oh my gosh!
Do you guys remember the watches (not just swatches) that had the frogger games on it. I got in trouble in class so much because of that thing! And putting Nerds in Sprite to watch them swim....Cabbage Patch Dolls!! Garbage Pail Kids!
And I hate to admit this but I also had earrings that were little silver gloves and a single silver sparkly glove, too when I was like 11. And Jelly shoes, they hurt my feet, especially in the summer, but who cared! As I got older I was totally a big hair band girl! Cruisin' the strip, crankin it up! "Wanted Dead or Aliiiiiiiiiiive......" WooHoo!!!!

Omg, so much. Music and tv was the best for me. Strawberry Shortcake, The Littles, HeMan, The Flinstones, Webster, Different Strokes, The Facts of Life, Good Times, damn, I can go on and on. The Dukes of Hazzard. The music was the best. Back then, if your sound was good, it didn't matter where you were from. I remember being into groups like Wham, Aha, Bananarama, Blondie, Simply Red, The Eurythmics. Oh, don't mention Madonna and Cyndi Lauper!! Oh, and video games were up and coming. I loved Atari and Kaleko Vision, and just hanging out at the arcade and the skating rink and the bowling alley. Those were the days of my innocent youth. Oh, and I am the proud owner of The Karate Kid on dvd. That movie just takes me back.

nicely, i'm an authority on the track of the 70's, yet I do have an opinion with regard to the eighty's. I did like the flexibility ballads, that got here out of that decade. additionally, there have been a pair of dudes, that could desire to easily crucify the heavy metallic guitar. Peace, eighty's Babe!

During the 80's my favorite thing to do on Friday nights was like this: Wonder Woman, The Dukes of Hazzard, Dallas, go get something to eat or catch a nap then after the late show watch Friday Night Videos (anybody remember that one)

I also loved to go to the roller rink on Friday night! The song I remembered most that they played was "Another One Bites The Dust"....
I didn't like the clothes too much but I LOVED the BIG hair. I would still fix my hair that way if it was socially acceptable!
Oh, and I loved the "hair bands". I still listen to Guns n Roses, Slaughter and Poison. My kids think I'm crazy! :-)

LOL at the roller rink on Friday Night! With me it was skating with my sunglasses on to "Rock me Amadeus" Hahahaha!!
Some other memorable 80's stuff: Punky Brewster, Duran Duran, the Dukes of Hazzard, barretts with ribbons / feathers, tying your shirt to the side with a scrunchie, Fraggle Rock, Atari and then later plain old Nintendo (Legend of Zelda and Mario Bros.), Reeboks, jean jackets with buttons all over it, I could go on and on. I miss the 80's, sigh...

Going to the Drive-Inn Movies..that was a great time! Life was simpler back then,it seem-d to have a lot more meaning too.People cared more for family and friends,and took time to show it.Hair was Funky and so was the style of clothes,but who cared..we all wore it,and Loved it..I wish the World could go back to the 80's...
