I have vivid memories from two decades ago, and things were incredibly different back then. It's not like I'm a kid anymore.Francisco d'Anconia said:I love it when 20-somethings talk about the good old days.
I would have LOVED to live in the 80s...well since i was born in 83 i did but to be a teen in the 80s must have been awesome...and that was when music was actually music!!! I loved watching "The Goonies" and listening to the Cyndi Lauper song...i think it was called "Good Enough"...that song is awesome.lookyoung said:The 90's were good but the 80's were even better.
you forgot the lord of all fighting games KILLER INSTINCT.MikeYikes122 said:Even if you like modern video games more, you have to admit no fighting game will ever top Mortal Kombat II or Street Fighter.
I love it when I make 40-somethings feel old. :yawn:Francisco d'Anconia said:I love it when 20-somethings talk about the good old days.
Not really. If you remember, literally the week before Smells Like Teen Spirit hit the charts, Michael Jackson and hair bands like Poison dominated the mainstream. Things weren't the same after Nirvana hit. Nirvana and all those other grunge bands ushered out the corniness and bad musicianship that were all those glam rock bands.meitenesrigas said:Emo is just grunge with makeup.
When you do let us know, so far you've only been amusing us like a puppy chasing his tail. :yawn:MikeYikes122 said:I love it when I make 40-somethings feel old. :yawn:
Boy Bands have been around since at least the 50's. Probably earlier than that. The Jackson 5 were probably the most famous Boy Band of all time. That was the 70's.fuzzx said:Um Boy bands started in the late 80s early 90s dude, and I happen to like their music quite a bit. DO you realize the early 00s punk groups are actually just the boy band reaction to male teenagers. They are the exact same thing but for males. Its called Punk Pop. It happens to be good also. I think alot of guys just had massive insecurity issues where the BSB and NSYNC were pulling HUGE amounts of pvssy, alot more than any DJ will probably ever see.
I think the crappy part of the 90s was Alternative rock, and late 90s gangster Rap. Also Nirvana (who's sound completely sucked)
Some other good stuff to come out of the 90s (Commercialized Rave Music, ala Robert Miles and Paul Van Dyk) , Terminator 2, Batman, Episode 1
The 80s definitely has to be the golden age for all things music, movies, style toys and video games. I remember pumping quarters into Galaxian, Space Invaders, Battlezone and Pacman all day long at the arcade... oh and especially that Star Wars game where you sat inside the ****pit. Arcades were also 'The Place to go' after school which continued into the mid part of the 90s where the ps1 began to takeover the scene. The toys were also some of the best, I mean probably every person with at least one friend on here owned star wars guys, GIJOEs, M.U.S.C.L.E.S, Transformers, Go Bots, Star Trek, Battle Star Galactica, Micro Machines, He-Man (the slime castle), Hot Wheels, Dungeons & Dragons, Comic Books, War Hammer 40k, Green Army Men, RC Cars, Care Bears or that strange pencil case that was all compartmentalized and had buttons on it that would shoot out little drawers..
Notable toys of the 90s: Bucky O Hare.
