i brought most of my DM cd's with me.

all of my new order ones, i couldnt live a day without them.

Don't forget 'in Your Eyes' by Peter Gabriel I love that song, everytime I hear it I think of the sceen from 'Say Anything' where John Cusak is standing there in his trench coat and sneakers with the 80's boombox over his head blasting it to the girl he loves!

I'm glad someone understands!!

This is a killer list...... ditto to all of them.

I'd also recommend listening to yahoo launch 80's station or to AOL radio 80's station for some more obscure

Ohh and I'd like to add:
Adam Ant - 'Goody Two Shoes'

I know Joy Division is TOTALLY depressing - I really wanted to play Dead Souls!!!!!! FH and I actually programmed our entire 6 hours because we want 'our' music. I could probably give you 100 more, I was just going for the more 'mainstream 80' ones but if you want other ideas, I can post some more So cool that you're playing some of this - I usually NEVER hear a song I like at a wedding

I need to come over at your place....

I am working on the music now.

here are some of my personal faves:

love shack
come on eileen
living on a prayer
like a prayer
you shook me all night long
pour some sugar on me
here i go again on my own
karma chameleon
don't stop believin'


if that's your taste, let me know... i can go on.

Just like heaven (cure)
Friday I'm in love (cure)
Just can't get enough (depeche mode)
