My name is puka
I live on the bathroom floor
You try to hide it
But, I think you've seen me before

need more Van Halen - Jump, Panama, Hot for Teacher
Def Leppard
Billy Idol
where's the Poison, Crue, Ratt, Warrant, etc :p


these got a lot of airplay but are too hard for you playlist and would destroy it with their awesomeness:
AC/DC, G n' R, Ozzy


BTW "Right Now" isn't 80's :)

Trust me, I love all of this music, but I'm trying to create a certain atmosphere. ;) BTW: I did add some Poison and Warrant. :)

If you do not put "Final Countdown" by Europe and "Mr. Roboto" by Styx on an 80's playlist, then it is an invalid 80'splaylist.

Well, good music but:
2 of the Van Halen songs, Can't Stop Loving You and Right Now are not from the 80's.

And Bon Jovi's It's My Life isn't 80's, either.

No, Im not kidding. I wasn't trying to be a smart a$$ and I wasn't trying to insult you either. Was your user name always dainbramaged? Or maybe there's another user with the name BrainDamaged.
