80s music

The 80s were chockful of New Wave power ballads, synthesizers, drum machines, and no shortage of Madonna and Michael Jackson.

Why Don't You Try Me Tonight?
Introduction I picked up a vinyl copy of this album and thought some of the titles read like poetry. There are thirteen songs which, because of the length of one gives me fourteen lines, enough for a sonnet.

The Mystery of The Meaning Behind Madonna's Like A Prayer. Content Warning.
Last year’s release of Deadpool and Wolverine was a highly anticipated event. Along with bringing the merc with a mouth back to the big screen, and fans finally seeing Wolverine and Deadpool together, it brought back a couple of famous songs through its soundtrack. It also reignited some controversy.

Hip Hop: 2024 Plenty More
If anyone was to ask me to define my 2024 with a soundtrack that would be very easy. Music is one of the biggest influences of my life. Every year I have an internal soundtrack that defines the year for me and 2024 was no different. As a matter of fact this was definitely a year for the books.

Music, a universal language that transcends boundaries, carries us through the roller coaster of life. It narrates our joys, our sorrows, our triumphs, and our failures.

2023 Music Journey Into Outer Space
A Brief Bit About My Music History I grew up listening to 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, and early 2000’s music. My dad has been a major influence on my music tastes, having introduced me in my childhood to the wonderful and wacky sounds of new wave and the iconic 70’s and 80’s soft rock and pop songs. I didn’t know who exactly I was listening to back then, but as I grew up, I always remembered them and liked that kind of music. Growing up in the 90’s and early 2000’s, I was naturally exposed to the music coming out at that time. I distinctly remember listening to Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Ricky Martin, and NSYNC on CDs. Interestingly, I never fully took to the music of my own era. I loved the sound of the 80’s. When I was a teenager, I started really paying attention to who and what specifically I was listening to as a kid. Hall & Oates, Journey, Huey Lewis and the News, Chicago, Barry Manilow, Genesis, REO Speedwagon, Simply Red, A Flock of Seagulls, Tears for Fears, Cyndi Lauper, Spandau Ballet, Talking Heads, Styx, Air Supply, and an endless list of so so so many more. I did have some other distinctly different music periods in my life but, from my childhood to 2022, the main music I listened to and preferred was from the decades before my birth.

L(ov/if)e Story
[A combination of “Letters of Gratitude” and “The Sountrack of Your Year” challenges] . . My love, We are reaching the end of this first year, 2024, with no interruption of you in my mind and I want to thank you for your constant presence in my nomad life. I want to give you something that would remain in our minds no matter the passing-by of years to come. Since I know you love music as much as I do, this letter will be a humble musical depiction of what my world looked like/felt like throughout the year. I want you to see how, even when you were not physically there at times, you were always there with me.
