I always think of this as a 90s song. Had no idea it came out in 1988! Did 'Murica get this before it was in Benny & Joon (1993) and blew up? Don't ever remember hearing it before that.

yeah, in the 80s if you didn't have airplay, you weren't gonna break into america, specially with a song that includes the lyrics "Win ah haver"
AFAIK, all our big exports were electro-pop and new wave at the time

"She's So Unusual" front to back probably the best 80s pop record for me. Incredible decade though. We basically perfected mixing and mastering records, drum programming really opened shit up, glam forever.

If I could marry a thread it would be this one. I love the sound of the 80's so much that sometimes it feels like I was born in the wrong era even though I was born the year the wall fell and the commies were defeated.

It's also pretty weird that most of these artists are known for just that 'one' song.

Himu · « **Reply #43 on:** June 02, 2019, 09:52:37 PM »

I'm so split on Bon Jovi. On one hand, I like their music. On the other, I admit it's generic as fuck and Bon is completely lacking as someone who pushes boundaries in rock. But yet I can't help but love him.
