Less pop music please :neyde::neyde:

Sorry about that - I know I have a few non-pop songs in mine. I'm going through now trying wildly to finish finding songs off of my playlist that are from the 80s but so far all of them are pop or pop-rock. :sweat: Guess that's what happens when you ask a forum dedicated to a pop star for music recommendations.

Oh, no it's ok.:hug:

It's just that I am already aware of those pop artists and listen to them a lot. 

I should have specified the genres in the op, but I didn't want to restrict the recommendations...:selena:

I grew up on the 80s. That's all my mom would listen too growing up. My favorite album would have to be Faith by George Michael, which includes his greatest song in my opinion One More Try. :giveup:

Some of my others favorites from the decade are:

Toto - Africa

Richard Marx - Hold on the the Nights

Billy Idol - Eyes Without a Face

Laura Branigan - Self Control

Mike and the Mechanics - All I Need Is A Miracle
