Porn for BYH

I thought it was already established that BYH porn is Belinda Carlisle circa 1987.

 

'Brothers in Arms' was their most commercially successful record.
There was a lot of good music in 1985. It was just harder to find then than it is now.

 

Wait, they don't have Casey Kasem anymore? There isn't enough facepalm.jpg in the world to measure my disgust.

 

Yes, that is what I'm saying there.

 

I'm well aware of their early chart history. They had the one top-5 single with Sultans of Swing in '79 or so, but it wasn't until Money For Nothing that they broke through in a major commercial way. In between they were an album-rock staple for the most part. I liked Industrial Disease off Love over Gold and the Alchemy live album was top-notch.

You're right, they never were able to match the commercial success of Brothers In Arms. By the time On Every Street and "Calling Elvis" came out, the industry had moved on.

 

You might have your years mixed up. It was 1981 that gave us REO Speedwagon with their Hi InFidelity album and all of its hits (Keep On Loving You, Take It On the Run, Out of Season, Tough Guys, etc.). In 1985, REO only had one hit, although it went to No. 1 - Can't Fight This Feeling. I think that might have also been their last top 10 hit as well.

 

1981 had its bad songs and bad bands too (I don't want to get started on THAT), but I was talking about the 1985 REO song and album (which actually dropped in late 1984, IIRC.)

 

Love that song. Love it.

 

I think 1958, 1928 and 1892 have to be right up there, too.[/spnited]

 

Are you kidding? spnited was in his high school's marching band in 1776! I'm surprised they don't keep sending him residuals for "Yankee Doodle Dandy"!

 

How do you know they don't? ;D

 

Some good things were done by actual heavy/thrash metal bands (NOT those glam bozos) from 1986-1991 as well.
