    The 80's ruled. No hatred. No wokeness. Shallow. Yes. Fun. Yes. At least in my town everyone was invited to the party. Cool kids. Nerds. Football players. Weed smokers. Didn't matter. Skin color wasn't that much thought about. All this division is media-made. Just be a decent person. Nothing else matters.

      Well said- I graduated in 87 so I lived in the craziness- It wasn’t crazy to me it was life but now I look back and Thank God I was there!!

      I have a hard time describing just how much cooler it was to be a teen in the 80's. We had way more freedom and fun. It's not even close and I feel lucky to have been born in 1969.

    80's was one big rock n roll sex party. i remember me and my friends going to see Kiss and Slaughter and my friends girl got a craving and had to take her man to the restroom to provide some lip service... then they got thrown out of the arena for doing their thing. we laughed our asses off and we rocked and partied the rest of the night and lived to see another day. oh and Ratt was THE badd ass best glam metal band.

      I missed them back in the day, but I have tix to see Stephen in October. I got the tix cheap just in case I wanted to say F’it and not go. That was before Stephen announced his cancer diagnosis so now I’m 100% going.

    @Joe-ju4cj 3 роки тому +3

    The whole of my teen years were solidly in the 80s. I can say without a doubt the last great party decade!
    To paraphrase David Lee Roth of Van Halen when asked in like 1992 or 93 what he thought about the whole grunge deal as opposed to the 80s glam/metal scene, 'In the 80s the music smiled, the clothes smiled. Concerts were energetic full of showmanship. Now you go to a concert and watch some singer stand in one place staring at his shoes singing about how his parents never paid him enough attention.'
    I think that pretty much sums up the 90s, at least the first half of it.

  • @mikkaelrodriguez1770

    Hands down the 80's best decade ever and I'm sooo happy I was there to enjoy them. Loved my 20's too bad every decade since has sucked with pc culture and all the other B.S. culture that has come up through the years.

    • @chopperdeath
      @chopperdeath 2 роки тому +1

      You young bloods have no idea how good it was then. Social media and politics literally ruined everything. Again, you have no idea. I'd rather be my 50 than live as a young one now.

    Those cats from this era had all that gimmicky stuff going on but at the same time the musicians,..particularly guitarists, took their craft SERIOUS as a heart attack. Players took pride in their proficiency at playing and paid attention to detail and spent crazy amounts of time honing their skills.

    Yep...Technology is great in some aspects and terrible in others...back then you had no Internet, no cell phones, no digital music, no cameras unless you were rich...if you wanted to get with a girl, you got off your butt and went and talked to them, wrote a note, or talked on the lan line telephone for hours, where as today, people are texting people right beside them. I was 14 about the time of this song and in 8th grade...I had a new girlfriend every month in school...was defiantly fun times 😎😎 When you got home, you went outside and played...kids don't play no more...too involved with video games....
