Scandal - Goodbye to You

This is when Patty Smyth looked really hot and wasn't singing dumbass Hagarisitic lyrics like "Shooting at the walls of heartache bang bang I am a warrior". Too bad the only copy of this video is so shitty......

Chicago - Stay The Night

The video here was always worth watching, even though the song was typical post-Kath cookie cutter pop schlock.

Hot chick.... hot car.... what's not to like?

Did they make Cetera do his own stunts, and if so, is that why he quit the band after this album?

Well, in all honesty I never owned a Wham record, or anything else associated with George Michael.

But it really wouldn't be an "80's horror and nostalgia thread" without them, would it?

Unfortunately, they didn't have the obvious choice of videos available, so this one will have to be scary enough....

I remember this one!

I used to like that song -- maybe it was the hot chick in the video.

Ahh....yeah.

LOL!!!

It's all coming back, one long technicolored blur and muffled reverb!

On a side note, what'd we ever do to you?

The original vinyl pressing of this album had holograms etched into the vinyl. Fuckin' cool for the time......

Kansas - Fight Fire With Fire

No it's not the same as the Metallica song, but it was an attempt by the band to update to an "80's" sound. After which they broke up to form various Christian rock bands like "Elefante" and "Kerry Livgren AD".

Odd that what had become a Christian band by this point has such an evil video......
