The Love Boat -- better than Lost (HAHA!)

This is the show that made the 80's "livable"! Haha! How can life be dull on Love Boat day? There were some who described the show as cheesy. How could we believe in anything that was so lovely and happy? But its cheesiness worked! How can The Love Boat work for today's audience? What kind of people lived in the 80's anyway?

No, life on TV today is full of reality -- the heartaches, gruesome murders, twisted minds etc. But, I say who cares for the people who are LOST on the island when you can be lost in a love boat?

I feel sorry (again) for those who have never experienced life on The Love Boat. Everybody should know the words to The Love Boat. The Love Boat was like a status symbol for actors then. It felt that if you were somebody on the TV scene, you would want to be a guest of the week on The Love Boat.

Now I remember the time I used to rush to sit in front of the TV set at the sound of the theme song....

Love....

Exciting and new

Come aboard

We're expecting you....

Moonlighting -- Bruce Willis & Cybill Shepherd At Their Best

Nights were so exciting when Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd lighted up the TV screens with their fireworks!
And Al Jarreau sang one of my favourite songs ever!
Moonlighting.

Duran Duran - My Teenage Obsession

What is the 80's without Duran Duran?

This band was one of my life's obsessions and was I kept busy collecting their posters!

My favourite was Simon Le Bon. I even sketched a portrait of him. It's lost now!

But my schoolmates and I were constantly fighting over who was cuter. Most of them liked John Taylor. Such a sissy. It was always Simon for me.

Not only were they so full of personality, they played excellent music. Let me just try to find some of my favourite Duran Duran songs and post them here.

At that time, music of that era with the British bands in the forefront were described as New Romantic. And sound that got everybody grooving was New Wave. Beautiful.

Save A Prayer -- one of the best songs ever written. See it here

A View To A Kill -- who could write a better James Bond theme song than Duran Duran -- surpassed expectation!!!

Come Undone --who could write more romantic, amazing lyrics than Duran Duran & Madonna.
