The 80s were shite
Contrary to my previous beliefs I've just discovered that the 80s were shite.
Just flicked some music channel on that is currently broadcasting some 'I love the 80s' malarkey and I've been subjected to 'China in Your Hand' swiftly followed by 'Living on a Prayer'.

No sign of any of that on this 'Bliss' channel, Birdman and it's billed as 'The Top 50'.
I can only assume the likes of me and you have been wrong all along.

Re: The 80s were shite
And on top of that we had The Human League and Soft Cell to contend with.

A lost decade with my only fond memories stemming from kids tv, we were blessed with some of the finest programmes ever made, to take our minds off the fact everything outside was dull and depressing.

Re: The 80s were shite
Don't understand why people say this, I here it often, plenty good stuff about in the 80's, these type channels would have us believe the 80's were just Duran Duran, wham etc, there were plenty miserable bands about to enjoy.
