LAST TWO!!! DAY 29 of the 30 Day Song Challenge, alternative music styles!

This one’s taking me back… literally! Now, what is “Childhood”? Could be being a little kid, maybe a pre-teen right? I guess technically a teen would do, but that feels a bit different. Oh well, have fun!

ONE MORE DAY Y’ALL!

    So this came out when I was 8. My dad had cable back then and this thing called MTV was playing music videos. This one in particular caught my eye and ears. I think about those early 80s weirdo bands making their way on MTV and how much that shaped my music taste for the decades to come.

    God this is such a good song.

      Excellent choice ren! Sometime I wish I could have experienced the 80s

      P.S. You may notice I’m posting from a different account. I had a bit of a snafu with my previous account. This will be my main account moving forward if you don’t mind swapping this one for the other kvn for mod privileges. I commented in an older pinned post yesterday but I’m guessing you didn’t see so now I’m bugging you here lol

        The 80s had some really amazing music - the addition of synths really took experimentation out there (not to mention all the hip hop development then). Really was a great decade for all kinds of work. And noted on the mod stuff, will update it!
