Say what you will, the 80's were an interesting time musically, post up your memories of the 80s.

Killing Joke~ 80's

Every song on “A Taste For Passion” is fantastic. I remember “Beach Girl” getting some airplay on the rock stations when it came out, has a bit of SD’s “Peg” in it.

Eye in the sky...Alan Parsons project ( whole album)

Business as usual...Men at Work (whole album)

"Silence and I" is my favorite, Eric Woolfson was a fantastic writer, and is sadly missed.

Well a woman now I love is named Ramona She kinda looks like tempest storm She can dance like little Egypt She works down at the snake farm Snake farm, it just sounds nasty Snake farm, it pretty much is Snake farm, it's a reptile house Snake farm, ugh Ramona's got a keen sense of humor She got a tattoo down her arm It's of a python eatin' a little mouse Wearin' a sailor hat that says snake farm Snake farm, it just sounds nasty Snake farm, it pretty much is Snake farm, it's a reptile house Snake farm, ugh I asked Ramona how come she works there She says "well, it's got it's charms There's nothing to do in the winter Now and then some kid gets bit at the snake farm" Snake farm, it just sounds nasty Snake farm, it pretty much is Snake farm, it's a reptile house Snake farm, ugh Well, Ramona likes her malt liquor And a band from Wales that's called The Alarm She said she cried when they broke up She still plays their records at the snake farm Snake farm, it just sounds nasty Snake farm, it pretty much is Snake farm, it's a reptile house Snake farm, ugh Sometimes Ramona calls me up And says come on down here, it's getting warm She runs everybody off And we you know, it's a snake farm Snake farm, it just sounds nasty Snake farm, it pretty much is Snake farm, it's a reptile house Snake farm, ugh Snake farm, it just sounds nasty Snake farm, it pretty much is Snake farm, it's a reptile house Snake farm, ugh

I don’t think there are any Russians

And there ain’t no Yanks

Just corporate criminals

Playing with tanks.

(Funny how that makes more sense today than it did back then)
