I was volunteered to pull music together for an 80's dance - HELP!

[Cebby]

My wife managed to volunteer me for pulling music together for an 80's dance at my church. Apparently we have some Rhapsody gift cards - never used this service. I do use iTunes though and would prefer to get this music into there so I an make a CD or 3 for the dance.

Anyone have recommendations for songs/artists for this playlist?

Thanks!!

look on the itunes essentials lists- there are a bunch of different 80's lists. (Dance, rock, pop, ect..)

Journey, Huey Lewis, warrant, quiet riot, scorpions, stevie ray vaughn, motley crue, uh i dunno really it depends on what kinda music they like and what you think they would feel most comfortable listening too.

:lol: Probably not too much AC/DC for a church function! :laugh:

Too bad Personal Jesus (hee hee) came out in '90.....

Guess you'll have to lip-synch Milli Vanilli style while doing double time (or something else) in your Hammer Pants.

Bananarama & David Bowie

Mike, I've got a buddy who does DJ stuff on the side. I'll send him a message to see if he has any ideas.

Personally, I'm clueless. I haven't followed music too much. Men at Work by Down Under (or was it Down Under by Men at Work??--something like that) was a pretty good song. When was Seven Bridges Road by the Eagles written? Probably older than '80s, but still one of my favorite. :D

I own that and second that! It's always good to play danger zone while cruising down the freeway... then imagining you had a sidewinder or two to move the car you've been zeroing in.

Pat Benetar for the win!
