Wow...looking through that list, the only one that turned out to have staying power was Bon Jovi (who I still love, btw). :lol:

Although Wanted...Dead or Alive is a better song. :p

Also, you left out one of the most important bands of that period - and yes, they had big hair too, back then: Van Halen! Great songs on that 1984 album! :cool:

And what about that band that played "Sister Christian"? They had big hair. Jeez...can't remember their names.

And Duran Duran had big hair too...although they were pop, not even rock.

But of course, the definitive rock star of the 1980's NEVER had big hair. Never even THOUGHT about getting big hair.

Born...in the U.S.A....... :cool:

Hmm...

Sorry, I don't remember any of those songs. Were they popular or something?

Yes, but then electricity was discovered, and things haven't been the same since.


Excellent list of groups and songs. I tend to prefer:

For Skid Row - Youth Gone Wild (apologies for the quality of the sound)

For Warrant - Uncle Tom's Cabin

For Def Leppard - Photograph

Ah...I remember when Edison came up with that. We all laughed and called him a crazy old coot. Next thing you know, there were flying machines!
