          '99 & a half ' wow thanks for that..not heard that in years, forgot about it completely.....I always thought that film was called 'Breakdance' didn't know it had an alternative title...I was 18 when it came out, and it seemed to be everywhere!

          I'd ALSO forgotten how HOT that girl was..that look she gives at 18 secs here..HOT!!!!!!!

              YouTube - Breakin' - 99 1/2
              I'm sure that the title "Breakin' " is it's American title. I have Breakdance and Breakdance 2 - Electric Boogaloo on DVd and the opening titles say Breakin'. The girl kelly was HOT!
              Another great song from Breakdance is Din Da Da by George Krantz and the classic Ain't Nobody by Chaka Kahn.

                      Just joined - stumbled on this site whilst looking up retro on google - this looks great..
                      the 80s are definitely my fave music era - and picking just 10 is tough but here we go...
                      1 - Yazoo - Only You - in fact writing this has just made me play this in you tube as I type :-)
                      2 - Human League - Dont you want me
                      3 - Giorgio Moroder - Electric Dreams
                      4 - Madonna - Borderline
                      5 - UB40 - Red Red Wine
                      6 - Genesis - In Too Deep
                      7 - Huey Lewis & the news - The power of love
                      8 - Fine Young Cannibals - She drives me crazy
                      9 - Pet Shop Boys - What have I done to deserve this
                      10 - OMD - Enola Gay

                      There are so many - it feels cheating to list 10, that list misses off some of my faves ever but that I dont really think off as "80s" songs, like U2 with or without you, Pink Floyd Another Brick in the wall etc - if you know what I mean...

                      Cheers

                                cant disagree on either point mate.

                                just look at these groups and the fantastic music.

                                no manafactured music or reality shows needed for these groups.
                                JUST PURE TALENT.
