Last year I made a compilation CD which included some of my favorite 80's songs. I thoroughly enjoyed living in the 80's and if there was ever any time I would want to go back and live in it would be that era. I have such great memories of my childhood and these songs just make me feel good.
Last night while I was "alone" making dinner (hubby was at work, kids were downstairs playing) I popped in my CD and cranked it up and just had this awesome sensation overcome me. I felt so alive and happy. I was dancing around and singing to my heart's content. That was until my oldest son came in and gave me a look of "your so uncool and embarrassing Mother". That look alone made me feel old, but it didn't put a damper on my mood. I was jamming out and reliving my youth. And it felt great.
I have posted the majority of my favorites on the music player below so you too can enjoy the 80's experience.
Do tell, what is one of your all-time favorite 80's songs. I would love to know.

If you ever decide to go back and live in the '80s, my husband would certainly join you. He still has his stonewashed jeans!
ReplyDeleteLove the choices on the CD. If you have more, email them to me! I always love hearing classic 80's songs on the radio, but can never remember the good ones to make my own compilation. I would have to say "Jessie's Girl," or (I know this one's going to sound wierd) "Centerfield" by John Fogerty, I just love the song, especially when it gets warm out! Okay, I'm a dork!
ReplyDeleteOh, and if you have some "alone" time with your hubby, I also love the whole CD of Greatest Rock hits of the 80's vol. 5. Great make out songs!
