Dirtyhip Posted March 14, 2016 Share #1 Posted March 14, 2016 Post a favorite song from your high school years. You don't have to be too specific in year for privacy sakes. Just between freshman and senior year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentonMakes Posted March 14, 2016 Share #3 Posted March 14, 2016 Still one of my favorite pop songs of the 80s, with the super-cool Asian-sounding intro that I didn't discover till much later. Skip to 1:54 for the song you 80s kids remember. I love this lyric: Tea, girls, warm and sweet (sweet) / Some are set up in the Somerset Maughm suite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Page Turner Posted March 14, 2016 Share #5 Posted March 14, 2016 ....other than the music, I'd be lying if i said I was nostalgic for the high school years. They were filled with angst and nightmare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoseySusan Posted March 14, 2016 Share #6 Posted March 14, 2016 80s alternative was my coming of age scene, but I was raised on 70s folk: Judy Collins, Carole King, Janis Ian. And Dan Fogelberg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was a young Private in the Army one of the NCO's took me to the S4 to draw my equipment. We took his personal car, a Pontiac Firebird and although I was the only passenger he wouldn't let me sit in the front, I had to sit in the back... The car had huge speakers right about head level and he was blasting this song totally blowing my hearing out... As he was an E-5 and I was an E-1 I couldn't say sheot so had to deal with it until we got there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted March 15, 2016 Share #39 Posted March 15, 2016 I seventh grade our teacher played "American Pie" and asked us to interpret the lyrics.

They have never heard of the groups I like and likewise with them... I think it's funny when there is a cover or a riff is covered for a newer song and then I play them the older version. Oh wow I didn't know that was an old song... I'm also having difficulty hearing songs from the 80's on the "oldies" station. Oldies for me will forever be late 50's through early 70's...
