It's time for another rundown of some of the greatest music this world has ever known. We're going to take a look at some of the biggest ARTISTS of the 80s.
Tina "Bruises Easily" Turner.....that chick just straight up had it. She'd be your private dancer, she'd tell you that you were simply the best, she'd ask what love had to do with it, and.....most importantly.....she'd welcome you to thunderdome. Great stems lead way to perfecting the short skirt/dress. Her hair is as unmistakable as her voice. You know Tina when you hear her. I suggest you listen. You better be good to her.
If you feel it coming in the air tonight you know Phil. Mr. Collins is a musical genius. Short, bald, unassuming white guy from the UK......the definition of coolness. He was somehow able to marry a dozen or so women (someone look that up), have a phenomenal career, and be immortalized by Christian Bale's commentary of one of his albums as Bale is having a threesome (great movie, but could have been real life.....he's Batman after all). Phil Collins is an easy lover with a groovy kind of love......and that's no sussudio.

This one's going to be a long one. Many of my readers know about my obsession. He didn't just touch me though (haha), he touched the whole world (hahahaha). Michael Jackson is the greatest performer of all time. There may have been better songwriters, better singers, better dancers (nope!), or even better performers (I'll kill you). No one did it better overall though. I can remember back when my dad used to steal cable watching his music videos. Unreal. Some of his videos actually showed people fainting. I never understood that when I was younger, but I do now. He had such a profound effect on people. He affected people. His music got into your soul. Man in the Mirror.....puts me in a good place every time. Dirty Diana.....totally opposite place. Emotional roller coaster that guy was. Everyone knows the big hits such as "Billie Jean" and "Thriller" and "Smooth Criminal". Not many people other than us crazed fans really know and appreciate the lesser known tracks though. "Liberian Girl" has some of his best vocals. “The Girl Is Mine” with Paul McCartney showed his ability to collaborate (and sound as gay as a human ever could). One of my favorites is actually “Another Part of Me.” It’s got the funk, it’s got the guitar hooks, it showcases his ability to do all of his little uhs, ows, doo doo doo doos, and hee hees…..it’s got it all. Totally underrated.
Keep on enjoying the best of the 80s. The planets are lining up, they’re bringing prouder days. It has been a cruel summer. Hold on to the nights. You’re a cold-hearted snake.
