Forgotten 80's tunes...

See - now some of these posted (while great tunes) haven't really danced on the edge of being forgotten. Like the Aha tune, Talking Heads, or the New Order one. At least in my area, they are now seeing daylight on some of the 80's stations.

Again - great songs, and thanks for posting.

But I KNOW there are songs out there that we all (us soft-in-middle-40-year-olds) heard MANY times at parties, girlfriends houses, dances, etcetera, but still eluded our own personal collections, or have otherwise managed to be basically left behind with the rest of the fading memories of the 80's.

Here's a southern rock song that fits that category...

Loved it in the day. Actually had it on vinyal. But when record players went the way of the 8-track, I almost forgot all about it, until I focused and bought it on CD (had to go to Amazon).

Fall Of The Peacemakers
 
Its so crazy how decades can be defined so distinctly, yet when you're living through them, it's harder to notice. Felt that way throughout the 90s, now looking back the differences seem so clear. Now though, I bet in the next five years I won't be able discern a difference between the preceding decade, but I bet I will another 10 or so years from now.
