- Discuss the music of the 80s and why it is my least favorite decade. I will list those albums that saved the 1980s for me. As always, I will reveal last video’s unknown albums and present two new unknown albums.
I’m 52, 80’s was the best
Although the 70's is probably the best ever decade for music, the 1980s was also excellent if you were'nt into chart music.
Here in the uk we had a fantastic post-punk scene which produced some of the best and most inventive music ever.
XTC, the cure, cocteau twins, siouxsie and the banshees, wire, the fall, the smiths, dead can dance, public image ltd, plus bands like sonic youth and pixies from the usa. Peter gabriel released great music and so did david sylvian. Many more i could mention.
You are correct in that there was good music from many bands I didn’t mention. However I feel that the 80s overall had my least favorite musical experience. I will mention that XTC is one of the few bands whose albums were all consistently excellent. Thank you for watching
Keep it up! 1980s vinyl is still affordable and I’d like to keep it that way.
Brilliant, just saw this notification, looking forward to this! Thank you, Sonique 👌🎶🧿🤗
I hope you enjoy the episode.
I am really enjoying your videos. Thanks for introducing me to music I haven't heard before.
That’s why I do this. I enjoy introducing new artists to music lovers. I always get excited when I find a new artist that I cannot believe I didn’t know existed. Thank you for watching
Love this list! So happy to see “In rainbows” in the background as well 😊
Absolutely. Thank you for watching
Apparently you missed a lot of the music in the 80s.
Some, but not as much as viewers think. I don’t think that there weren’t good bands from the 80s, but it was the decade I least enjoyed. Nice Vertigo logo. Thank you for watching
@@AllAboutAlbums I'm 50 I have all the albums you mention I'm suprised you didn't like other albums by the same groups. I never cared for 80s hair metal very litttle of it. I liked the other stuff. I thought you would have liked the group Madness.
I do like Madness. I was upset when I missed a concert of theirs since I was out of town. Thank you for watching
My 80's albuns (I don't nominate hard and heavy metal albuns)
80 Queen - The Game, Roy Buchanan - My Babe,
81 ELO - Time,
82 Dire Straits - Love Over Gold, Rory Gallagher - Jinx, Supertramp - Famous Last Words,
83 Pink Floyd -The Final Cut (underrated in my opinion),
84 Bruce Springsteen - Born in the USA,
85 Marillion: Misplaced Childhood,
87 U2 - The Joshua Tree,
88 Cowboy Junkies - The Trinity Session, Steve Hackett - Momentum,
89 The Cure - Desintegration, Tom Petty - Full Moon Fever
A very good list. Cowboy Junkies should definitely be on my list. Margo Timmons is a singer who people forget when talking about great female singers. Thank you for watching
Good to see you again. I'd add these fine albums to your list, Texas Flood, Lyle Lovett, Let's Dance, New Gold Dream, Spirit of Eden, The Queen is Dead, The Trinity Sessions, Nothing Like the Sun, Speaking in Tongues, War, Avalon, Synchronicity, the Nightfly, Bring the Family and Graceland. First unknown is Allman Brothers, Brothers and Sisters.
All good albums. You know, I kick myself for not including The Trinity Sessions. Thank you for watching
@@AllAboutAlbums Don't kick too hard, just spin up the Junkies and enjoy it yet again.
I applaud *you for mentioning Spirit of Eden. The entire video i was waiting for it to be brought up. A top 5 desert island album in my book.. Same goes for Steve McQueen/Two Wheels Good..!
New Gold Dream, The Queen is Dead and Nothing like the Sun I absolutely agree with although i´d put Ghost in the Machine over Synchronicity..
I would´ve added Welcome to the Pleasuredome. In it´s entirity i think it´s close to masterpiece.
@@elCaxi1971 damn, forgot Frankie, agree.
It was an exciting time for Heavy Metal and Hard Rock.
I’d add Roxy Music Avalon
I have to chime in with my love the 80's in no small part due to a lot of the artists/albums you mention - REM, Elvis Costello, XTC, the dBs, Squeeze, Crowded House as well as The Smiths, Feelies, Marshall Crenshaw, Go-Betweens, Lloyd Cole, and The Church just name a handful. I guess I'm sentimental toward the 80's because these were my formative high school and college years and I definitely lean toward the indie alternative/jangle pop artists rather than the synth-based new wave. Thanks for another fun video! / Matt
I’m glad that the 80s do get some love. Enjoy your music collection. Thank you for your comments and thank you for watching
I'm late to the game here, forgive me, but just wanted to commend you on a great video! It's an excellent reminder that the 80s had an undeserved reputation. Besides everything you mentioned, I'd add the Pretenders, the Smiths, the Cure, Bowie's Let's Dance, Talking Heads' Speaking in Tongues, and Cowboy Junkies' The Trinity Sessions. And then on the more alternative/underground side, there was, of course, the Replacements, Camper Van Beethoven, Husker Du, Screaming Trees, Throwing Muses, the Pixies, the Mekons, the Meat Puppets, Black Flag, Fugazi, Minor Threat, Sonic Youth, and so much more.
Funny, the more you think about the 80s, the more you see that there were many excellent albums coming from that decade. Thank you for watching
The 80's were the best decade. There's was great hardcore punk, post-punk, synth pop, thrash metal, early death and black metal, early shoegaze, doom metal, and really too much stuff to list. But I guess if you're not into Depeche Mode and Iron Maiden the 80s isn't for you.
I do very much agree that many great albums came out in the 80s. However, when I choose an album to play on my stereo system, I will less likely choose an album from the 80s than from other decades. Thank you for your comments and thank you for watching
oh yeah david baerwald did good lp's in the 90's and produced sheryl crow 's first effort and toni childs as well in 89'
Interesting list with a lot of really good/great music. Although a 1989 album (so almost out of the category) and i guess a very British album given the subject matter of some the songs i would include New Model Army's "Thunder and Consolation", gritty lyrics and a no compromise rock/punk attitude with a bit of folk thrown in as well that spoke to large number of my peers of the post-free festival/traveler scene.
Sounds interesting. I will check it out. Thank you for your comments and thank you for watching
So, I just watched this video. You knew you were going to get flak for this one... Regarding your comment that the 1980's was the worst decade for music, you are not only wrong, you are dead wrong. You were young in the 1960s/1970s; I was young in the 1970's/1980s. The 1980s was my decade. You may not like songs made with synthesizers... you mentioned 'til Tuesday and Peter Gabriel as artists that "saved the '80s"(those artists didn't heavily use synthesizers...?) -- I think you are wrongly stereotyping '80s music as being synth-soaked and all about image. Some of the very popular '80's albums did use a lot of synths, yes. But there are many groups that you completely (conveniently?) ignore, such as The Police, Duran Duran, Foreigner, Journey, Billy Joel, Tom Petty, Styx, Hall & Oates, Pat Benatar, John Cougar Mellencamp, Genesis, Phil Collins, Men at Work, David Bowie, Spandau Ballet (many of whose music was actually not synthesizer driven), who had massive, massive hits (and massive sales as you frequently mention regarding artists), and acclaimed by critics and audience alike, from the 1980s. Sure the MTV videos helped us to see what the artists were like, but to me, the videos were always boring compared to the music. It actually was not all about image to me. You also dismiss the 1980's as a decade of excess - it may have been that way for some people but it wasn't for me, being a poor teenager who loved a lot of the music that was being produced. I have actually watched (and liked) a great many of your videos, and I have enjoyed the information regarding artists who I don't know as well, and have even taken notes as far as some 1970's artists who I would like to explore further, which you discuss, but this video surprised me; it kind of came out of left field and by the end, I was left saying... "what??". I'm just saying, to dismiss an entire decade out-of-hand, as it to say it mostly sucked, seems a bit over-the-top opinionated, and potentially alienating to many viewers.
You are correct. I’m sorry to have made you upset but it’s only my opinion. You have every right to love the 80s. Some the artists you mentioned began in the 70s and then carried over to the 80s. It just that I notice I tend to pick very few albums to listen to from my 80s collection. Yes, some of it has to do with how old you are and emotions that come with that decade. I am further removed from the 90s and still prefer those albums more. I respect your view and it makes for good discussion. Wouldn’t the world be boring if everyone liked the same thing. Thank you for your comments and thank you for watching
Well Australian music industry embraced the 80’s pretty much more than any other English language country .
Australia had great album released in the 80’s
Indie bands
16 Lovers Lane - The Go Betweens
Born Sandy Devotional - The Triffids
Human Frailty - Hunters & Collectors
Mars Needs Guitars - Hoodoo Gurus
Starfish - The Church
Tender Pray - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
The Sunnyboys - The Sunnyboys
Gossip - Paul Kelly
more mainstream
Circus Animals - Cold Chisel
East - Cold Chisel
10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 - Midnight Oil
Diesel & Dust - Midnight Oil
Kick - INXS
Icehouse - Flowers ( ICEHOUSE renamed )
Man Of Colours - ICEHOUSE
Boys Light Up - Australian Crawl
Desperate - The Divinyls
Back In Black - AC/DC ( highest selling Australian album worldwide)
Noiseworks - Noiseworks
For The Working Class Man - Jimmy Barnes
and 70’s pop idols that was considered washed up by critics and the industry but end up making their most successful albums in the 80’s
Whispering Jack by John Farnham is a strong adult contemporary pop album that ended up being the most successful Australian album sold domestically with in Australia with sales 1,700,000 that’s 24x platinum in Australia. John Farnham’s 3 albums with the Little River Band - The Net , Playing To Win , No Reins are so underrated and was the blueprint for John Farnham’s solo comeback album Whispering Jack .
The Edge - Daryl Braithwaite
Seems like you did well in the 80s. I did enjoy Midnight Oil and INXS. There were many great albums to choose from in the 80s, but it’s the decade I least listen to. Thank you for your comments and thank you for watching
@@AllAboutAlbums check out some of these albums
I was in high school from '92-'96 and I despised the 90s from the second I heard Nirvana.
Grunge is garbage.
Robbie Robertson's self titled 1987 album was a favorite of mine back then. It featured songs with U2, The BoDeans, Peter Gabriel and producer Daniel Lanois.
A good album. Thank you for watching
Eighties music sucked? Tell me about it, I dread going into stores that play '80s hits! My favorite LPs from the 1980s are Rush's 'Moving Pictures' (1981), Donald Fagen's 'The Nightfly' (1982), Suzanne Vega's 'Solitude Standing' (1987) and Tracy Chapman's 1988 debut.
I am listening to Suzanne Vega’s new box set “close up series”. It’s all her tunes re-recorded and mostly acoustic. It’s great. “The Nightfly’ is a great album. Even my dad liked it! Thank you for watching
I ❤ Eighties because it is the time that I became AWARE of music ...
I’m glad you found music then. I have many great albums from the 80s but when I take an album from my collection to listen to, the 80s is not my first choice. Thank you for watching
That is a great string of albums. The first Dire Straits album that got my attention was "Love Over Gold".
That may be their best album. It is also a very well recorded album. Thank you for watching
I found this to be a very interesting video and opinion, so thank you. My take comes from an opinion I have and not "anger". I grew up in the 1980's. I watched MTV and listened to the radio. I also bought a lot of albums! I grew up hearing, mostly from Baby Boomers, about the glorious 60's and early 70's music. I heard how I missed the best music and artists EVER! I mean grass was green and flowers bloomed bright. They would list off a LONG list of songs and artists that were "great". I started listening to a LOT of this 60's music and fell in love with it. But no matter how much I liked it or loved it, I always had this disconnect of real life experience and memories. I would hear, again from Baby Boomers, how "you had to be there to really understand". I guess that is true with so many things in life. The Beatles became one of my favorite groups, not because of "Beatles Mania" but because of how good their music is.I could appreciate what was without having to say "my music is better than yours" or "lame old people, get over it". There was enough room in my soul for what was and what is.
In the 1980's I would often hear Baby Boomers say most of the same things you are saying. Put downs and snarky remarks are what I would hear. NOT saying you are putting anyone down or being snarky. I am saying that is how I would hear it back then. I kept finding it interesting that Baby Boomers were so upset by the music of the 80's. If you turned on the radio what did you hear? A LOT of bands that got their start in the 60's and 70's. HUGE artists like Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Bruce Springsteen, Grateful Dead, Hall & Oates, Chicago, The Rolling Stones and countless others. Artists that Baby Boomers held up as "the best ever". They ALL had HUGE hits in the decade. The song writers were mostly Baby Boomers. There were countless remakes of 60's songs topping the charts. There were actual 60's songs, by 60's artists, like "Twist and Shout" by The Beatles or Ben E Kings "Stand By Me" or music from the Dirty Dancing soundtrack re-charting in the 80's. You had The Beach Boys scoring a #1 with "Kokomo". Starship's, widely HATED #1 "We Built This City", by a group built out of the ashes of Jefferson Airplane/Starship. The point of it all was, I felt we were a generation under the boot of the Baby Boomers. Trying to do the dance and sing the songs they wanted. All while being told "not good enough". I know, get out the tiny violins. The Baby Boomers have no one to blame for 80's music but themselves! They controlled the record labels, who were trying to keep their own generation interested in music by propping up their childhood artists. The "real bands" of the 80's, many you mentioned, were trying to make their own path in this mess. Were trying to break free from the many rules put in place. XTC, Talking Heads, Tears For Fears, The Police and countless others. So I find it a little hollow when Baby Boomers roll their collective eyes at the 80's. A decade THEY were in control. They were the middle aged, working class. They were more directly responsible for what was passing for entertainment than anyone else. Now many decades removed trying to look back and act like "didn't that decade suck?" They then followed it with "back when I was young we had real music, real artists and a lot less filler". Yeah, I'm sure I can't find any filler/disposable pop artists or trends in the 60's or early 70's. Facts is EVERY generation has them. Every generation has that throwaway, over produced crap. Those songs and artists fade away. The ones that remain are the quality ones, from every decade, who did something original or game changing.
Again, I say all of this not from anger or hate. I value your opinion and your right to say it. But I do believe this idea of one decade being "worst" or "awful" is getting old. There are no scapegoats on the train to crappy music. The 80's is what it is, good or bad.
Well said. All those bands you mentioned are some of my favorites most notably XTC and The Police. You are right in that this is my opinion. I enjoy all the decades. It’s just that the 80s is my least favorite. Thank you for your constructive comments and thank you for watching
@@AllAboutAlbums thank you for the reply.
Some wonderful albums on your list! I'd add almost every album that XTC released in the 80's, especially English Settlement and Oranges & Lemons. The 80's had enough good albums to keep a record collector broke, and half the fun of the 80's was buying great used albums when people dumped their LPs to buy CDs.
The unknown albums were pretty easy this time. I'm not going to spoil it in the first comment. 🤐
Sorry, I half spoiled it.
I agree that all XTC albums are worth owning. Thank you for your input and thank you for watching
Ever hear the dBs' cover of Family's "My Friend the Sun"? 🙂
Never did. I’ll check it out
The Stone Roses, Happy Mondays, The Charlatans, Insipral Carpets, Joy Division.
I do agree that The Charlatans are an overlooked band and that is unfair. The Stones Roses did put out a couple of very fine albums. Thank you for watching
@@AllAboutAlbums Most of the above were late 80s and often considered 90s .. but the Charlatans are really exceptional, even their latest few albums 👍 Thanks for the video's 😊
80's and 60's were the best decades for music.
Just watched this and to be frank I'm astonished with some of your picks but most importantly by your many omissions. Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion and definitely the overall consensus on everything is much boring. I grown up in the 80s and imo it was a very bland and unremarkable decade in many aspects. But in pop music it was far from boring. Pls allow me to mention just a few names that weren't mentioned in your list. David Sylvian, Talking Heads, Elvis Costello, The Cure, Cocteau Twins, Dead Can Dance, This Mortal Coil, Nick Cave and I'm sure I forget a ton of others worth mentioning. But thank you for your video anyway. Truly appreciated.
I really got a lot of responses like you did from viewers who really appreciated music from the 80s. Thank you for watching
Couldn’t agree more Alex.
I guess we may be in the minority. There were some good albums in the 80s, but it is the decade that I play the least. Thank you for watching
Unknown albums:
The Allman Brothers Band - Brothers and Sisters
Love - 'Forever Changes'
Correct. Too easy? Thank you for watching
My collection is organized by decade so this list was easy. Tons of stuff not on this list because I am lazy. My argument is that my 80s section is almost as big as my 60s section. My 70s section is three times as big. My 90s is smaller than the 60s. 2000s is even smaller and after that it get worse. For me the 80s was when I discovered a whole slew of new bands because my ole favs were gone from the market. Except the Rolling Stones. Emotional Rescue is still fun to listen to.
AC/DC Back in Black
Bruce Springsteen Born in the USA, Nebraska, The River
Bob Marley & Whalers Legend
Replacements Tim
Purple Rain Prince
Metallica Master of Puppets
Beastie Boys

The 80s were the most diverse decade for music. MTV inspired people to be different. We still had genres, but those genres expanded to include Hip Hop, Hair Metal, Synthpop, Alternative Punk, New Wave,
*Top 20 all time favorite records.
Peace brother I enjoy your channel
Thank you.
I agree that many great albums came out in the 80s. However, when I listen to older albums, I pick an album from that decade less than other decades. Thank you for your comments and thank you for watching
@@AllAboutAlbums I tend to agree with your thoughts on what made the charts. My first car stereo was in the 80s. Mix tapes were my thing. I played a mix of 70s/and 80s in the car. To this day if I hear Mott the Hoople All the Young Dudes I think of the next song on that mix tape. Me and Bobby McGee.
Let's not forget Daryl Hall and John Oates!!
Agreed, although I love their music more from the 70s. Thank you for watching
Gotta disagree but I didn't listen to mainstream music. The following is what I was into and most people I know who love heavy metal would say the 80s is actually the best decade ....
Metallica , Megadeth , Anthrax , Slayer , Testament , Bathory, Death , Cirith Ungol , Dokken , Helloween , Running Wild , Iron Maiden , Trouble , Mercyful Fate , Judas Priest , Exodus among many others released fantastic albums for this subgenre.
I do agree that for heavy metal, the 80s (and the 70s somewhat) was their most important decade. Thank you for your comments and thank you for watching
@@AllAboutAlbums Yes definitely agree, the 70s were important as well
I ❤ JAMES TAYLOR....
So do I. But I primarily listen to his earlier albums from the 70s. Thank you for watching
Would have liked to seen Raindogs on the list
Sorry about that. Thank you for watching
witrh skylarking or colours of spring by talk talk you can agree tha it's a brilliant decade in term of alternative music not in the bilboard... so many great productions came out in this decade ..unfortunatly forgotten but not by me
I do agree that many great albums can be found in the 80s. However, it is the decade I least listen to. Thank you for watching.
the 80s had prince michael jackson madonna springsteen tina turner whitney run dmc journey def leppard depeche mode duran duran bon jovi motley crue iron maiden talking heads van halen rem poison heart culture club the police enough said the 80s was the best decade for music period
Making Movies came out in 1980!!
I don't think you properly listened to the 80s, man. Poor take. But I try to appreciate where you're coming from.
There was an explosion of talent that came through in the 80s, and yes while I'd agree I'm not always a fan of the over polished, auto synchronised makeover radio friendly hits had, the actual music itself was hugely innovative and inspiring. Almost every genre blossomed and grew. I've listened to everything from pop and soul to metal and UK Bhangra 😄 and they all had a renaissance of some sort in the 80s.
Many viewers agree with you. I too have many great albums from the 80s but I tend to play music more often from other decades. Thank you for your comments and thank you for watching
Allman brothers and Love
Correct. As I said pretty easy. Thank you for watching
Hahaha using the Billboard charts to show diversity and originality in music is absolutely absurd, because most of the most creative music didn't even make it to the charts.
I don’t care about Billboard charts but I’m pointing out what the music public thought about the album. Thank you for your comments and thank you for watching
Hater. The 80s are the best.
I’m glad that the 80s are receiving a lot of love from you and others. Don’t get me wrong, I own a lot of great albums from the 80s. It’s just not my favorite decade. Thank you for watching.
I liked the video but the mention of the charts is redundant. I don´t, and many like me, listen to music because of the charts,
I get your point. It’s just to be complete. Thank you for watching
I totally agree, the eighties were uninspired and sterile. Not my favourite decade.
Finally, one viewer agrees with me. I guess only those upset with what I said typically respond. My point was that there were many great albums to come out in the 80s but I find that I play less music from the 80s than from other decades. Thank you for watching
Yeah, opinions are like a**holes...everybody's got one. The 80s is not the weakest decade...not by a long shot. Especially if you factor in the decades that followed, which since you're a boomer, you probably didn't. Its all going to depend on when you were young and music had the most influence in your life. For me, that was the 80s. I like the 70s too...some 60s and a lot of the 90s. It is a little irritating to hear some older dude to say the 80s were weak for music. Maybe your video did explain some of your attitude, but tbh, I didn't watch much more than a couple minutes of this since it was pretty obvious where you were going. Pffft.
I own some great albums from the 80s but overall it’s the decade I play the least albums from. We all have different opinions and that is what makes life interesting. Enjoy your collection. Thank you for watching
Some counter arguments with respect...

The unnamed engineer who conducted his research on timbre, harmony and chord changes obviously has gather masses on information but I am curious as to why melody was not included. Is that because the quality of a melody is more difficult to define through analysis. Harmonic and chordal structures can be measured yet melody that most beautiful aspect of a piece (for some) is so very subjective. I might have once agreed with the conclusion drawn by this video if it wasn't for all the output from about 2000 onwards hadn't have been so dire.
This was an enjoyable post and I found it both interesting and engaging.
I know that it's where modern 'rock' music really began but honestly if I had to choose between the fifties and the eighties I would choose the eighties every time. (I suspect that only those who grew up in the fifties would think otherwise...)
The 80's were awesome for rock and metal. you and your lame list got an instant thumbs down.
That’s ok. I’m glad someone enjoyed that decade. Thank you for watching
@@AllAboutAlbums The 80s were more diverse and influential than any decade besides the 60s. This man's opinions put his whole musical taste into question. He has a very thin gruel of musical knowledge or preferences.
No problem. We are all different and that’s what makes life interesting. Thank you for watching
the worst 🤔
think all styles was on 👍
Yeah. I hear you. The 70s should have gone directly into 1990. Thank you for watching
The 80’s were a tough decade for me also. I wasn’t into the hair metal: Poison, Ratt, Twisted Sister, Quiet Riot- the titles of the bands said it all. I found bands like The Smiths, The Cure, New Order a bit depressing. Some of my favorite artists of all time released some of the lamest efforts in their catalog (Stones, Neil Young, Dylan, Petty, McCartney) in the 80s so that was also a bummer . So thank God for U-2, some solid rock from ZZ Top, Heart, Rush, INXS, Van Halen, Tears for Fears and Simple Minds. The overachiever award goes to Springsteen, releasing The River, Nebraska, Born in the USA and Tunnel of Love in the same decade!
I never thought about Springsteen and his 80s excellent production. I always think of Springsteen as a 70s artist. I do think Tears For Fears were not as respected as they should have been. You should check out their lasted album. It’s interesting and there are parts of the album I really enjoy. Thank you for your comments and thank you for watching
I’d say the 2010s and 20s are the worst so far
Well, I guess we each have our bad decade(s). Thank you for watching
I really love the 80’s but my taste leans Punk. I do agree the billboard songs from the 80’s are the worst.
Well, someone had to say it. Thank you for watching
Billboard songs from any decade tend to be pretty terrible tbh
The 1970's sucked. Goofy folksingers, Area Rock, Disco. Puke. The 80's as a whole took the 60's innovations and took it to the kosmos. Take a deeper dive into the 80's and find out for yourself.
I don’t deny that some great albums came out in the 80s but I will listen to music from other decades more often. Thank you for watching
@@AllAboutAlbums Of course you would listen to 60s/70s as they were your "era" I grew up in the 70's/80's and I'm constantly discovering bands I never heard on the radio Mainstream and College.
Ok Boomer.
Just my opinion. I own many outstanding albums from the 80s. My point is that when I listen to music, the 80s is the decade I listen to the least. Thank you for watching
Mediocre choices .There are better albums than these
There are many great 80s albums, many of which I didn’t mention. However, my point is that when I listen to music at home, the 80s is the decade I will choose least. Thank you for watching
the 80s far superior to the deluge of crap that has came out in the last 15 years.
There are many viewers who agree with you. I may be in the minority here. I do like much of the music from the last decade but it’s because I focus much of my music listening to Americana and alt folk. I don’t like the latest pop sound as a whole. Thank you for watching.
