As most of my formative years (teens and early twenties) were during the 1980's, I spent my music-listening time ear-deep in New Wave and MTV pop of the first half of the decade and big hair rock and (freestyle) dance bands of the second half. Even now, I remain steadfast that Company B's 1987 release "Fascinated" is the greatest dance song ever produced, though I will concede that my love for Haddaway's 1993 "What Is Love" places it equally high on that list.
The 1980's were a glorious time for dance music: Shannon's "Give Me Tonight" and "Let The Music Play," The Cover Girls' "Inside Outside," Expose's "Point of No Return" and "Come Go With Me," to say nothing of Neneh Cherry, Taylor Dayne, Salt-N-Pepa, Miaimi Sound Machine, Sheila E., Madonna and those that didn't fit into the freestyle category but were equally danceable, Soft Cell, Human League, Go-Go's, Bananarama...
I could go on...
But I won't because here is my latest release, "What's It Like (To Be In Love)?" is, in part, an homage to the 1980's. Enjoy!
