I dont understand. Why are all these people all about this radio music from the 80s that noone liked in the 80s but were forced to listen to since it was pumped out over the radio?

The bands you name were just loser bands. Now suddenly they're not? I dont think so. The REAL reason is because there is NOTHING else because everyone is busy sitting around on the net and Nothing new came out,. The net replaced it and youll; still never convince me that Poison is music.

I agree some of its refreshing as a whole - IF TAKEN that way but I cant see how the music itself suddenly totally improved. I think its just cause theres nothing else to listen to so they get all our old crap that we hated. In 10 years the next generation can sit there and make fun of the internet generation and all their old 80s remakes and I guess that saves them from ever having to stand for anything.

Ok Ok., The kid with the memories got me. Yea and you know what. Your not the only one with the memories, I would love to listen to it for that reason too., it would remind me of junior high and high school. for THAT reason its ok., I like the feelings generated by it too. Musically theres better but the feelings are good. There needs to be more feelings around the world.

There's nostalgia and there's reminiscing....I was a kid in the 1980's but some of the songs there like Careless Whisper, Crazy For You,Time after time etc. come from that generation. Whenever I listen to an 80's song it reminds me I was once a kid.

There was good music in the 80s but they don't play them on MTV anymore. Try listening to some of the guitar based rock bands of the 80s such as The Ramones, John Fogerty from Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Paul Collins Beat, Cheap Trick, John Wicks & The Records, Blondie, The Knack or The True Believers.

Funny...that is true but I love listening to the 80's music b/c it get me moving, clean house 2, listen to on a long boring drive. I don't know why though! We will probably like a lot of the junk out there right now in 20 years too (hope not!)

Most oof the 80's hair bands were very good muscians in there own right, but the record companys had them dress up like women. I have seen many of the "big hair bands" not only int he 80's but also lately Tesla comes to mind and if you dont think they rock then you dont know what rock is. And for the person who said we had great "new wave" from the UK....Now that music sucked way more than any hair bands ever did.....I can see this guy rocking out to thompson twins or one of the other "gay" UK bands that came out in the late 80's or early 90's

I gotta agree. MOST 80s music did suck hard & naturally, lots of people who weren't born back then see it through movies, old videos & rosy glasses.

Listen, people- 80s music is FORGETTABLE after around 1983. PRIOR to that we had great new wave from the UK & rock still rocked.

If you think acts like New Kids on The Block, Warrant, Poison, Milli Vanilli & Tiffany are 'classics', then you should be drawn & quartered....

First your not forced to listen to it,there are plenty of other stations.Plus the music nowadays is all about using bad lanuage and sex.There are only three types of music.Emo,rap,and country.So people who cant stand so much of it(or non of it at all)have the 80's music.I myself listen to every genre of music so it doesn't bother me what they play.

i can't really say without you giving an example of which bands you are talking about. it doesn't matter about the decade, most music on the radio sucks but the radio stations are owned by corporations, those corporations are owned by larger corporations who own the music corporations and they push what kind of music they think is popular until they've bled the genre dry and then they move on to another genre.

History repeats itself. More and more bands each day are basing there songs off 80's rock hits, as this becomes more and more popular, it makes fans want to learn about their influences and become fans of those influences.

No one was forced to listen to anything.
There was more than one station, we all had our own stereo systems, and you know.. we liked it. We actually paid for it.

I don't know why people listen to some of the crap they do now when there's absolutely no reason, do you?

If you did - you wouldn't be asking this question!
