Kerry is not impressed at notion of the eighties having a revival. Everything about that decade sucked, especially the music. It was a nightmare which I couldn't wake up from, the arrival of the 90's was like a breathe of fresh air.

What is happening in girly fashion now is good. Very feminine, it is a mix of older fashions, but as my old greek tourguide used to say of Knossos Palace, "there is nothing new under the sun."

Flirty dresses are my favourite. I dont recall any of such like in the eighties. I suspect those who are happy to recall that decade are trying to recapture lost youth. How sad!!!

I recall the fifties, I missed out on wearing those wonderful dresses by just 3 or 4 years. I recall with longing my flounced party dress from 1959. It wasn't mine really, but one of my sisters thought it would be fun to dress me in it, at Halloween.

Excuse me for rambling on....

may I ask what is sad about recalling a decade in which one was happy? being born in the 70's, I for one enjoyed the 80's,and some of the music.
One the other hand, I find 50's music dreary and dont think much of the fashion from that era.But its everyones right to make a choice and I dont take well to people calling others sad for trying to recall a happy time in their lives.

Kerry, I gotta disagree with you there about the 80's music . . . perhaps it wasn't "80's music" in general that su*ked but rather, the specific music you were exposed to that formulated this opinion of yours.

Eloise, I think that we all have (at least some) happy memories of the time when we came of age, and that music and culture will resonate with us forever.

Having been born in the 40s, I still love some things from the '55 - '70 epoch.

To me the eighties were just a time of disco (eugh), Reagan, Brezhnev, massive corporate greed and the rollback of so many freedoms gained in the 60s and 70s. (Well, there WAS Blondie and Romeo Void.)

Variety is the spice of life, that's why it is good that we are all so different!

Dear All,
I did not intend to criticise any form of reminicing. (I cant spell either).

From a purely musical point of view I detested the pop-music generated during the 80's.

I spent much of my spare time in 70's and 80's as a DJ in various Clubs. Today I like almost everything that comes from the pop industry. This is true of the seventies and nineties too.

For some reason most of the eighties music left me cold.
PS: As far as the fashions went, I was in the military, the haircut was the same all the way through.
