What was Your Favorite Song of 1980?
This was mine.
Pink Floyd - Another Brick In The Wall - Live - 1980
Hard to imagine a few years later she’d be singing songs written by Prince.
That whole PG album was great. “No Self Control”, had Phil on drums and Kate Bush doing backing vocals (Kate was also on ‘Games Without Frontiers’)
I meant #123 to go to you.
If looks could kill they probably will
Now most of Ford Ord is a County ParK for hiking. I keep meaning to go.
Isn’t it about he wants to be Hitler?
Yes, enjoyed. Thank you.
Madness - One Step Beyond. It may have had a release date of 1979 but I first heard in in 1980 and loved it. Still do.

Yeah, that came as a surprise a few years back when I was looking up something about the band, or that album, or that song, and read that for the first time. Warms my heart that it’s sold more than “The Wall” or “Dark Side of the Moon”.
Never mind.
Yes, I heard it was closed. Haven’t been back since I left in ‘69, though I have been to the surrounding area (Salinas) many times.
Good one. Loved the English Beat as well. Loved that British Island sound of that era.
Ashes to Ashes by David Bowie
The Bohemian Rhapsody of punk.
My favorite song from 1943:
C. C. Rider Blues--Bea Booze
Billy Joel was always far too NY for me. Could not stand his music, pompous as well, Piano Man was the epitome of that.
