Since realizing how much I underrated 80's movies, I got back into listening to some of them like songs from The Cutting Crew (after Hot Tub Time Machine), John Waite (after Warm Bodies), and Crowded House. I had John Waite's "Missing You" for years now. I just appreciate more if I see some of them in a movie as it fits the scene and creates another visual memory for me.
But yeah, 80's movies were just as fun as their music! 1989 is my new favorite year in movies. I think I overrated 90's movies esp the overrated 1999 (my high school graduating class). The 80's rules all in both fun music and fun movies.

he he he... haven't heard that one in a while...
Terrific choice, and a CD I rather really like. Indeed, it is one that I believe I have @mobilehaathi to thank for, as I bought it on his recommendation. Anyway, earlier this week, I played that very CD on my iPod, and yes, agreed, it is excellent.
Ok, despite some of the mixed opinions about Apple Music and Beats 1 I must say I really like The Alligator Hour with Joshua Homme. I like the music he plays and the banter. Today a Halloween type theme with a strange mix from Radiohead, KC and the Sunshine Band, and now Eagles of Death Metal.
A blast from the past: A classic - nay, seminal - album (one of those 'concept' albums) from the 60s, by a group called "The Moody Blues". The album - and I have @JamesMike to thank for the reminder as this was an album I had long liked a lot, but haven't listened to in an age - a terrific album - is called "Days Of Future Passed".
A song called 'The Candle Of Life' by The Moody Blues. Sixties harmonies, minor chords, complex musicianship and mastery of melody; lovely.
Actually, my decision to listen to the album had been prompted by @JamesMike's post, and not by any other, um events, - or dates from the past or elsewhere - that are being acknowledged on these fora. But well observed and very nicely taken.
Father John Misty's album "I Love You, Honeybear" may be the best thing in music right now.
Well, I don't know the music, (in fact, I have never heard of the group), but that is a beautiful album cover and sleeve art.
He's a former drummer of the popular band "Fleet Foxes". He left in 2012 and did his first album. This one is his second.
Warning, some language. The above is his most popular song. The below song is his best, IMHO.
One I haven't listened to in a while: The group is 'Gare du Nord' with a piece of music called "How was It For You?"
