    I did not recognize 12 of the songs in this list. It did seem to be mostly the disco music that I didn't really know so well. I do know some ABBA, but I did not recognize anything they had on this list. I thought they were gone by the 80's. So that was a surprise.
    And I miss the 80's. It was a wonderful time. The music, clothes, hair, makeup, and just the mood of the country was so much fun. I know everyone thinks their teen years were the best of times, but even my father, who loved his teen years in the 60's, agreed that the 80's was a great time. And he had a family of six to provide for, with four teenage girls who wanted the clothes, makeup, hair, and music of the day. Hahaha. He should have been miserable but he too, loved it. It's hard to describe just how fun the 80's was. You have to have lived through it to really understand it.
    Don't get me wrong, I loved the 70's and how easy everything felt, but there were also some difficult times in the seventies, at least for the adults. But kids could feel the pressure that was on the adults around us. Of course, I lived out in the country then, so the music really worked with that. I remember singing "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head" walking up our long dirt drive as it began to sprinkle. Looking out across the property and the wildflowers, birds, bees, and the trees, and all the little insects scurring and buzzing around. The music of the time fit my setting.
    But then the move to the city in 79, and the 80's music fit right in for my teen years. And what a time it was. Again, there is no describing it. The entire feel of hope and happiness cannot be explained in words. But I guess it can be explained in music. And the music of the time really fit with what everyone was feeling. Just a sense of happiness and let's have some fun. Maybe others can explain it better than me. But if I could return to a time, it would be probably be the 80's. Though I wouldn't mind reliving the 70's again for that laid back feel.
    I would also be happy to visit the 50's. I didn't live through it and would like to experience it. I hear it closely mirrors the 80's. And I must say, the music of the time has the same flair, as did the clothes and makeup, and even the hair. But then again, I've heard the same about the 20's. And if you listen to the music from the 20's, the styles in fashion, yeah, I can see that.
    Anyway, I'm ready for the 30 year come back. Did we miss it in the 2010's? I guess it wasn't too bad, but it didn't have the umph from the previous joyful decades, and it lead to the misery everyone seems to feel now. We're behind. Let's catch up!

There was such a variety of music in the 80s and it’s interesting to see the music change as it goes through the decade. There is another video for the 2nd most popular song of each month with every more brilliant 80s songs on it as well as ones for the 90s, 00’s and up to now (although the last one starts from 2012 instead of 2010 as loads of the songs had been blocked).

    You want a playlist of this? Just search for any 80s pop playlist and you'll get every song from the video. This is basically as mainstream 80s as you can get. They are all eternal bangers, but are definitely just scratching the surface of what has come out of the 80s. In my honest to god opinion, musical variety peaked in the 80s, began to flatten out in the 90s and turned to what we have today. You literally have to search for a gem these days, whilst they were literally laying in every shelf back then. I remember going to the vinyl store near me and every time I bought the first cool looking vinyl cover, it had bangers in them.

    My decades were the 1970's and 1980s. I was born 1959 and the 70's (starting 1975) and 80's are my partying times. Great times and the crazy fashion in the 80's I loved so much. I think I just went thru all the styles.
    Now with 64 I'm finding many 80's fashion again, and I will wear it this summer in a toned down way. I mean no crazy hair with all that hairspray. 😜😂

    I didn't realize how many of these songs came out way earlier than I thought they did. I was born in 78 so I was young in the 80's but I definitely remember most of these songs and the music videos that played on MTV

    Grew up in the 80's, was young in the early years of the decade so the ones I didn't know were from then but still knew all but 14 songs.

    Sadly, disco died at about 1983.
    Was born in 81. My older cousin was born in 75 and she was ALL about the 80's so I listened to this music at a very early age. Her favorite song of all time was Eternal Flame by The Bangles. She and my aunt passed away in 1991(a month and 2 weeks before her 15th birthday) to a drunk driver. I wasn't allowed to go to their funeral as I was only 10, my mom didn't think me and my younger brother could handle it. She has regretted it pretty much ever since. They even played Eternal Flame at the funeral.

    Music tends to go in peaks and troughs (as overall trends if you look back over the decades - though there are always stand-outs). It goes through dull patches and then soars again... Eg, the trough at the start of the 60s that led to the Beatles and the Stones, and the Kinks, etc. The trough at the end of the 70s as disco died that led to both punk and the electronica of the 80s. The trough of the late 80s early 90s that led to new types of rock and indie...
    We're in one of the troughs at the moment is all.

    Hey Kabir I love how you get swept away on a good groove - as you commented most of these songs were uplifting and fun and just make you want to party (except for old misery boots Phil Collins, he must have started the trend in moody/pained songs that we still have today)

    I was born in 1990 and my dad preferred 70'n and early '90's rock.
    I love all music decade by decade and how they slowly "evolved" and melded into each other year by year.
    I don't think it's a crazy thought.

    Being born in 1973, my intire childhood was the 80's and it was extraordinary we all wanted to sing like Whitney Houston. America was a fantastic place in the 80's Plus MTV actually played music videos, we would sit and watch for hours.❤ I loved Prince, his music is still fantastic.

    The song FAME by Irene Cara was for the TV Series FAME. I have been lucky to communicate with one of the stars of the shoe Nia Peeples from time to time. Usually when something important comes up in the news or our families.
    There's another actress I'm friends with, Julia Ling that I know well enough that she sends my grandsons e-cards on their birthdays. Never met them though. Mostly texts and a couple of video calls.

    A great video reaction. I think you knew about 75% of the songs, at least. You should do the 60's hits because it was a great decade but you probably won't know as many of the songs.
