UB40 - Many Rivers To Cross (1983)
This won't be the first Weird Al nomination I'll be making. Hopefully at least one of his songs makes it in. The man has been around since the 70's and is still going strong. More often than not, I'll sing along with the lyrics to his versions of songs rather than the original versions. This is a good example.
"Weird Al" Yankovic - Another One Rides the Bus (1981)
Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?
When the bullet hits the bone...
You are in the...
Golden Earring -- Twilight Zone (1982)
Another awesome track from ZZ Top....
ZZ Top - Sharp Dressed Man (1983)
Grandmaster Flash and Melle Mel - White Lines (Don't Don't Do It) (1983)
The Go-Go's -- We Got the Beat (1982)
The Go-Go's first release of this title was in the UK in 1980, but they re-mixed the song for their 1982 U.S. album release. This is the 1982 version.
What a voice....
Jennifer Rush - The Power of Love (1984)
Jean Michel Jarre - Les Chants Magnétiques 2 (1981)
Roxy Music - More Than This (1982)
Still not MJ or Madonna, what the fuck, y'all?
Madonna - Material Girl (1984)
I'm a huge Madonna fan, and that was just the first one that came to mind. I'll do a few more from '83 and '84.
Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) - 1983
Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?
Already on the seconded list
Great song though!
Well fine. Then I'll nominate the other one.
Eurythmics - Here Comes the Rain Again (1984)
Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?
