i'm STILL singing Shot Through The Heart.

That list is just too short though, there is still much of the 80's to be remembered. That list is definitely tailored more towards the ladies. For the guys, there so much that was left off - Like MacGuyver, Transformers and Voltron, the GI Joe movie, when Optimus Prime died, how much New Kids On The Block sucked(!), the birth of Nintendo, Rocky fighting the Russian and Mr. T, Jack Nicholson as the Joker, and so much more.

Maybe next time.
stand tall, stand proud
every beginning is breaking it's promise
i'm having trouble just finding some soul in this town
