Notice how the racks were filled with snazzy jackets all lined up waiting for pimping.

no styling shoes or jackets with shoulder pads.

I'm not into 80s clothes, but sit me down with a few 80s films and I'm set. There's so many classics from the 80s.

What was up with the shoulder pads?? And the damn Pat Benatar look that was really popular for a while.
The 80s clothing references were probably the best thing about "Hot Tub Time Machine". Oh and people were definitely obsessed with skiing.

there was great german(/austrian/swiss) music in the 80's


back then people had the balls to sing in our clunky language and use weird synth sounds


that saxophone part towards the end is ace.

The 80s man, the 80s. Best decade for sure.


Big tune, I remember it being played at a party last year, on my birthday. Good memories.
VOOOOLLLLIIIGG LOOOOOSGELLOOOOOOOSTTTT VON DER ERDEEEE



Although the majority of their discography dates from the 70s, it's a crime to forget Kraftwerk when talking about the 80s..
Computer World and Electric Café are two spectacular albums, and their earlier material had a BIG influence on 80s music.
Oh man I would give big money to be able to travel back in time and witness one of their live sets in the early 80s/late 70s when it was still the original lineup (schneider, hutter, flur and bartos)



And those are just some of my all-time favourite tunes AND they're from the 80s.
Haha oh god Just An Illusion is going to be playing non-stop in my head now for at least 2 days.

At least once I year I go through a phase where 90% of the music I listen to is Kraftwerk.
Last two weeks I've been in such a phase again. Feels good man.

Early 80's were cool, late 80's were cool, but holy fuck, the mid 80's were probably the worst years of the last century.
