The 80's poll

[moonwise]

Okay! All three of you who read my journal, fill out and enjoy.

1. What is/are the quintessential 80's movie(s)?

2. Bands?

3. Songs?

4. Videos? Remember when MTV actually played videos instead of endless repeats of "The Real World?"

5. TV shows?

6. Did you have big hair? A mohawk? Acid-wash jeans?

7. How about roller skates? ("All-skate, change directions!") A hula hoop? Those stretchy telephone-cord things everyone wore? The stacks of bangles that drove teachers mad?

I'll post my own answers in a comment. :)

LOL! Yes, Top Gun! The 1.5 hour-long music video! And the start of an interesting career for Anthony Edwards.

It was nice when MTV played fun stuff, wasn't it? And who could forget Adam Curry's hair?

So you didn't do the big hair thing. :P Well, the telephone cord definitely qualifies you as 80's! :)

Duran Duran! How could I have ever forgotten Duran Duran?! Oh how awful I feel... I need another Pop Tart...

Hey, I had bright pink scrunchies and a denim jacket, does that count? *grin*

MTV sucks... or, as Scary Movie puts it, EmtyV... Thank whatever power exists that there is a VH1... even though that's slowly starting to become bad as well. But I'm hanging onto the dream that maybe, just maybe, it won't die yet... I want to believe!
