For the past five decades my favourite person has been myself.
Did some of my best work in the 8o's
Posted by P.S. It's Paul.... (Member # 1022) on :
Most influential : Margaret Thatcher (as more people talk about her still than any other politician)
Most attractive : Michelle Pfeiffer
So If I could have found a politician that looked like Michelle Pfeiffer, or even a stunning actress that had the political power to influence the world, I'd have been a happy man....

I like John Candy its a shame he had to die!!! I suppose you could list loads of people coz there was loads of them. I even thought Anika Rice was ace wizzing round in helicopters, helping people solve crytic clues. Eddie Murphy, the brat pack and all those who were involved with Live Aid - right on top of the list really, because that was an event that relly made the 80's stand out.

good answer
Posted by records1black (Member # 7105) on :
Thankyou for saying that missalexis!!! You, (am I right in saying) probably remember it the 1st time round - Live Aid that is. I heard it was someting that lasted an entire day, that rocked and made the summer of 1985. That captivated it's audience and people enjoyed the music as well as the cause. Midge and Bob created something that became histoicaly significant and globally significant.

Sylvestor Stallone, Richard Pryor, Anthony Michael Hall, to name a few

Posted by records1black (Member # 7105) on :
I was born in 1983 so I was an 80's baby too! I wish I was born further back tho, bout 1963 for example!!!!
What are your fav people of the 80's then? What about John Taylor from Duran Duran - they were ace. Even Boy George springs to mind for being an intresting person during that decade, he still causes a stir now!!!! The people who made spitting image too, what genius that show was.
Posted by missalexis89 (Member # 7123) on :
WOW! john taylor is my fave member of duran duran :)i luv him nd i luv them lol molly ringwald is my idol shes amazin, actually all of the brat pack are. mmm corey haim is gr8 too in lost boys nd licence to drive. aww nd one of my all time favourite films is stand by me (river phoenix and keifer sutherland:)) ooo nd i luv tom cruise in top gun "you've lost that lovin feelin" haha one of the best scenes. i wish i was born in 1970 just like my mam, coz my fave year eva, is 1986 nd she sed it was the best year of her life nd most of my fave things happened during that year

Posted by records1black (Member # 7105) on :
Looks like that Goosey guy never gets any luck!!! I love the breakfast Club tooo that is a good film might I add. The soundtrack is a must get. I never followed the programme ER tho.
What does anyone think to Ledgend???
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
I love Legend. Would be cool to live in a fantasy land like that. Another great Cruise movie is The Color of Money. Goose is Anthony Edwards - Remember he played Gilbert in Revenge of the Nerds. He was also in Pet Semetary...to name a couple.

Hmmm, when I read this I was thinking of the late great Lady Diana. Much better recognized than crusty old Maggie Thatcher IMO. Lady Di is near the tops of my list, along with Wayne Gretzky, Danny Elfman, John Cusack, Jenny Wright, Siouxsie Sioux, Robert Smith, Katerine Mary Stewaret, Elizabeth Shue, Jonna lee, Tom Hanks, Tom Selleck, Sal Soto, Stuart Adamson, Mark Mothersbaugh, John Elway, Don Mattingly, Wade Boggs, Ryne Sandberg, Chris Penn(RIP), MJ Fox, Corey Hart, Martika, Kelly Preston, Lori Loughlin, Cal Ripken.

I'm surprised it didn't say that "Even dead, I can't get no respect!" He was famous for saying that he couldn't get any respect!
