I don't know how it's even possible to have a top 10 list in this community.

Love Steve Winwood, the Mrs. and myself received His Autograph on the “Back In The High Life” Album(Vinyl)and a couple concert shirts complete with autographs when I was in Seattle at KJR radio. The one thing that was cool about the radio biz, free concerts with perks.

Dont go back to Rockville is such an underapreciated song from REM. I love it!

Oh and "No More Words" by Berlin deserves some airplay.
I actually have heard it play on WNIC once during their 80s weekend and was like WOW I missed this song!
I play it frequently on my YouTube channel during my live music streams. It saddens me when people ask "what song was that?" Ugh


Music is my life.

The 80's are near and dear to my heart. So much great music, movies, TV, and yes, even commercials. Love watching them on YouTube. I really miss that time and how things were. Often I think it was better then than it is now.
