Three of my favorite bands were The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and David Bowie. The Beatles and the Stones pre-dated me, although I still liked them and still do like them.
Bowie pre-dated me too, although he kept making new music. I didn't listen much to anything that came after Let's Dance though, and actually Let's Dance was a little poppy I liked Scary Monsters more.
I noticed that two '80s bands played at The Palms, Vegas this weekend, The Psychedelic Furs and Squeeze. The Furs are fairly well known due to their hit from Pretty in Pink, also their songs like Love My Way, All That Money Wants, and President Gas.
Squeeze is probably less known but they have some great songs including,
and
You wish you had a motor boat
To pose around the harbor bar
And when the sun goes off to bed
You hook it up behind the car
But behind the chalet
My holiday's complete
And I feel like William Tell
Maid Marian on her tiptoed feet
Pulling mussels from a shell
Pulling mussels from a shell
"Tempted [by the fruit of another]" is another Squeeze song.
