Thanks for visiting the 80's at 8 blog! If you'd share a bucket of fried chicken with a Mogwai as long as it was before midnight, if you've ever fought with a friend over whether Betamax was better, if your parents bought your Cabbage Patch Kid out of a van, or if you ever rigged up an entire game of Mousetrap without throwing it out the window, you are in the right place, this is the 80’s at 8, powered by Set The Rules CT.org, and we get today’s show started with a song from 1985, it helped the band win an MTV Video Music Award for Best New Artist, here is Til Tuesday “Voices Carry”

From 1986 Robert Palmer "I Didn't Mean To Turn You On" If Teen Wolf taught you that the three rules to live by are never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body, this is the show for you, it is the 80’s at 8, from 1983 the Thompson Twins "Hold Me Now"

From 1983 Todd Rundgren “Bang That Drum All Day” If you still finding yourself wanting to get Less Than Zero with Robert Downey Jr, if you quit watching Growing Pains when a certain Titanic actor made the scene, or if you're too busy rocking your parachute pants to notice a sale on skinny jeans, you are on the right station, this is the 80’s at 8, from 1983 Cyndi Lauper "Girls Just Want to Have Fun"

The answer to the 80’s timeline, in which year did the following things take place? Princess Grace died when her car veered off a mountain road. David Hasselhoff found himself out-acted by a car named KITT in the premiere episode of Knight Rider. Dustin Hoffman gave us Dorothy Michaels, the ugliest woman ever, in Tootsie, in 1982, and that year, Thomas Dolby released this hit which stands at number 12 on VH1’s Greatest One Hit Wonders of the 80’s, here’s “She Blinded Me With Science”

From 1984 John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band "On the Dark Side" If you'd follow Tiffany to the mall and back, If you still take relationship advice from VC Andrews, even though she died halfway through "Heaven", or If you don't want to sell anything, buy anything or process anything as a career from 1984 Dan Hartman “I Can Dream About You”
