Usually, I watch the series of shows called "I love" and I saw one today that was I love the 80's. It showed stuff that happened when I was a little girl and even before I was born (years 1980 to 1983)
The Phillies won the World Series in 1980, and the Mets (tragically) won in 1986 all because of Bill Buckner's blunder. I never saw that game, and then again, I don't give crap for the Mets or the Yankees. Phillies fan all the way since they won the World Series in 2008. And I'm hoping they win again this year.
They also showing movies from the 80's like Gremlins. I never cared much for that movie. All I know from it is that they don't like water and you shouldn't feed them after midnight. It's just like raising a teenager. LOL! Another movie they depicted was Back to the Future. A movie staring a very cute Michael J. Fox and a crazy Christopher Lloyd.
The music they had from the 80's was creepy, but I liked some of them.
First off, I will never, and I mean ever "Walk like an Egyptian" Lame. I can't stand "Somebody's watching me" from a singer, who I bet, mysteriously vanished into thin air. I admit I do have that song on my iPod, but every time I hear it, it reminds me of a Geico commercial.
Another song, by Genesis, was called, "Land of Confusion" Two things about that music video, it was more like the land of Muppets on crack and it scared the living daylights out of me. But I guess that's how the 80's were, really confusing.
But there were some good things about the 80's and I'm not talking about the creepy 80's hairstyles they had, that made every girl look like they were from New Jersey, but it also had a decade that lend the quote: "Do you believe in miracles" 1980 the year, not only my cousin was born, but it was also the year the USA hockey team beat USSR and won against Finland to be number one! It was also a decade that gave us another great quote that was used in politics: "Where's the beef?" That one old woman, god rest her soul, made that Wendy's commercial, and quote, famous 26 years after it aired.
Well, There are other I love's.... that are on VH1 once in a while and when I see the 90's version, I'll blog again about it, but till then.
Caio Bloggers! and Pray for Haiti!
