Thanks for the tip. If I see the greatest hits I won't t'buy it. You've been rubbing off of me Devolution, I just picked up Devo's greatest hits yesterday and am going to pick up Devo's greatest misses this weekend.

Word to the wise, The Greatest Misses aren't worth it. Buy Freedom of Choice or Q:Are we not men before you buy that. It's really not that great of an album. It took me forever to find it and be disappointed

Devo-yep your right-of course-it's Wanted Dead or Alive. I loved that video, I used to have a thing for Ritchie Sambora! I liked the whole Slippery When Wet albumn.Heart and Soul was the only T'Pau song I knew. I also liked Survivor, did I mention them?
Also, I love Kiss- their greatest hits. AC/DC-Back in Black, and Ozzy Osbourne's-Crazy Train and Shot in the Dark.
Did anyone else have a jukebox in their high school cafeteria? We did, I think in 9th grade all that played was Men at Work's who can it be now?

In 1993, I don't think they would even think about a jukebox (hero) in the cafeteria. Survivor Rocks, So does AC/DC. Who can it be now? is the first song that I ever remember memorizing. I was 7. The first song I knew the chorus to was 50 ways to leave your lover.
OH god.

Would you recommend Devo Hardcore Vol 1 and 2, I heard it sounds like the Residents. I was told to avoid the Devo E-Z listening disc, that it's Devo Muzak or something.

hmm, i don't think INXS was mentioned. do you guys like? they had some good stuff.
2 bands that i could not stand:
the bangels and the go-go's.
i can tolerate "vacation" by the go-go's. both bands still tour, infact.
i have the valley girl soundtrack and more music from from valley girl as well. all the songs on both cds are great. josie cotton, gary myrick and the figures, the sparks, the plimsouls, and bonnie hayes all had a coulpe of songs each on those discs.
ever payed attention to the words for "angst in my pants"? hahaha good times.

I did like 'We Got The Beat' by the Go-Go's. This song is so out of tune that it becomes great. It's also the intro song from 'Fast Times @ Ridgemont High' though I don't think it's on the soundtrack.

That would be correct. I have the soundtrack, We got the beat, and American Girl by Tom Petty aren't on the soundtrack. I think those are the only two that aren't.
Oh, I like the GoGo's and the Bangles. Not to listen to at home, but good to blast in the car if it's on.

Not to forget 'Moving in Stereo' by The Cars, Devolution. It's the song that is played during the famous pool scene. (when Phoebe Cates is taking her top off.)
Great song!

Do you guys remember the song Cars by Gary Neuman. I love that song.
Do you guys remember any of these albums, they came out in 1980:
Rock 80, Hitline, and Soundwave. They had a variety of different music on them. I remember me and my brother fighting over who got which ones, I also had wanted ABBA's greatest hits that year- I still like them too.

i remember i wanted to buy the fast times soundtrack at some point because of the music. i did notice right away that the cars and the go-go's were not on it. but jackson browne's "somebody's baby" is...that song is niiiiiiice.
isis, i really used to like "cars", by gary nueman (sp?) but i have come to dislike it over the years. i think the reason may be that the song gets very dull & long towards the end. but it is definitely a good 1 hit wonder.
what about fleetwood mac? does anyone like them? they are 70s, 80s, 90s, and still making music. i saw them in concert a few months ago. it was magical.

Ronnie- I love Fleetwood Mac- I have just about everything they have ever done. Love Them!!!!
I think I wrote about the one song from Fast Times -I have the soundtrack on CD- my favorite is Sleeping Angel-by Stevie Nicks.
I love Leather and Lace by Stevie, and I love some of their 80's songs: Sara, Fireflies-is one of my favorites-I bet alot of people don't know that one.
I love Stop Draggin my Heart around with Tom Petty- I also like Don't Do me like that-Tom Petty.
Does anyone remember the song Pilot of the Airwaves? That was the first 45 record I bought.
Then I got The Tide is High, and I love a Rainy Night.
I used to remember Juice Newton- Angel of the Morning was a big hit.
Babe-by Styx was a biggie when I was in 6th grade.
Does anyone remember when everyone said KISS-stood for Knights In Satan's Service?? I remember that in 6th grade, and that Gene Simmons tongue was such a big deal.
