Interestingly, what is old is in again -so the 80's is oddly hip (for a good many "kids"). What needs to happen, for those of us over 25, is that those pop songs that are currently re-mixing 80's lyrics/beats and getting plenty of accollades for their creativity, is we need to let those folks who absolutely LOVE those songs/artists know that the are contain highly "borrowed" "remixed" "redone" lyrics from 80's songs -- just to set the proverbial record (not the cd) straight!

Oh this is awesome...

Not only do I get a retrospective of what the 80's were like 25 years later, I also get a nice memory jog of where I was November 19th, 1983. As the video showed the concert dates for the Police, I remembered: I went to my first outdoor concert to see the Police at the Meadows in Austin.

What a great show. There was a full moon and the wind was blowing about 30 to 40 miles an hour and for most of the show we were in a sand storm. After the show, you couldn't run your fingers through your hair because the wind and dirt turned it into cement. Sting pointed at the moon and said. "There's your next song" and played, of course, "Walking on the Moon." I wondered how much damage to all of the electronics and instruments occurred from that sand storm.

I know I am going to watch the whole three hours of your video at some point, so thanks for posting it!

Thank you. That was painful but good medicine.

And why do I suddenly wonder if Prince and Johnny Depp are related?
