Great comment! Incidently I had exactly this very thought yesterday when I watched old 80s movies trailers on you tube, thinking how awesome the 80s seemed to be! I started watching Class but the link did not work.
The best year, as far as I remember, was 10 200 BC. The Ice Age came to an end and we could stroll across the Bering Strait into the vast continent of America.
I loved the 80's as well. Big frizzy hair, loads of leggins, Michael Jackson was still semi-wholesome, Madonna concerts being cancelled for her "Like a Virgin" routine. Oh, and people wore their pants around their waist and their underwear on the inside of their clothes (with Madonna being the exception of course. No thong peeking over the pants, rap was MC Hammer and DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince.
I remember The Falklands - which made us proud and to join the army. DeLorean, Madonna with her pointy bits, Rubik's cube (which I never mastered), Chernobyl, Les Dawson and ofcourse the death of Tommy Cooper...

80s movies are the perfect escapism for me!
Atari, MSX, and NES..... it was AWESOME DAYS
How can we go back to the 80s, I really miss that era T_T
Nomerci they were popular in the 80's but they had a few releases in the last decade as well.
Hmm, Frankie goes to Hollywood"The world is my oyster" was that the 80's or 90's...it's all a big blurr....lol

Cryspy...its good to be born again. Think of all the missed opportunities, that you know how not to miss now ;)

Oh, brit. That was 1 200 BC, not 10 200. And it was Ramses II and not the third. Cheers.
the only good thing i remember of 80s was that my village got the TV transmitter and i used to be amazed watching the krishi darshan.
Those were the days... Rameses III ruled Egypt...
Lol TB I bet you feel young again after hearing about LP's Ice Age story :P

Sixth Form, first girlfriends, Uni, first car, first job, first house, first partner, first family - and still found time to party all the time!
Wow! looking back, how did I fit it all in?
yeah, I'd do it all again. dodgy music though on the whole - but fun.
I remember The Falklands - which made us proud and to join the army. DeLorean, Madonna with her pointy bits, Rubik's cube (which I never mastered), Chernobyl, Les Dawson and ofcourse the death of Tommy Cooper...
Actualy Brit... the main thing I remember about the 70's is the advertising on TV. One track mind I know... but especial the Birds Eye Beef Burgers.
Some of the music sticks in my head as well, Wombles... now that's embarrassing... and some superb summers and real winters.
Hang on.... isn't this an 80's thread ;)
Tinker i knew you are smarter than that and it would take much more than that to convince you!
Afrinn i am good at guessing the ages of young ladies like yourself! :)
Mr.M u guessed it right..........
Tinker your earlier post compelled me to ask you that not-so-interesting question!
80's ..... those days were thrilling....
Tinker i don't usually ask ladies their ages but in this case i am curious to know yours,do you care to let us know? :)
Afrinn i presume you have just hit 20 :)
Brit did you have to bring Shanks into this? i mean the turmoil Liverpool is going through and if he knew about it,he would be turning in his grave!
just after 80's...........
Afrinn when were you born then? ;)
You would have loved it...
The Saint, The Who, Twiggy, Sandy Shaw, Lulu , Shankly, Leeds United, Jaguar e-type, Jnsen Interceptor.....
Those were the days...Ja
The 80's was my decade as well.So many lovely memories!

No Play Station, no Wii, only Atari :-(
Bring back the 80s and perhaps even the 70s..
Great memories, great times.... No Rap music , minimal internet, no PC brigade, No mobile phones....
Life was bliss :O)
80's life is peacefullllllll
80s mattered for me especially the music
The late 80's or the early 90's for me is when I ran buck wild and naked :-P

The '80s were crap compared to the '70s.
Lazy, carefree days *sigh*
