For you it’s a desert, but for others including me, it’s a plethora of cool and creative environments. And also people said the same things about your era, so maybe pipe down a little bit.
@@arturoromero951The difference is though that 80’s music has remained relevant and popular since then. So many iconic artists such as Michael Jackson, Madonna, Van Halen. The artists of today will be forgotten mostly in ten years. Today’s music isn’t iconic and won’t stand the test of time. Songwriting is only subjective to a point. Modern pop is mostly cookie cutter sounds with little variation. There, explained it for you.
@@themetalhead1463 I don’t think you realized that people literally have said the same thing about “this era of pop music is iconic this one isn’t.” Everyone has criticized older decades of music because of new changes. For example, when the synthesizer and drum machine started coming into play, many songwriters and musicians started talking about how music was going to be in decline because they’re replacing people and instruments with machinery. When dances like the Twist started becoming popular in the early 1960’s, many older generations criticized how popular dancing was now becoming too vulgar, sexual and crude. Every single generation has criticized how music and songwriting is getting worse and worse. Older generations criticized 80’s music for sounding too synthetic and plastic-sounding. Your point means nothing when you say “modern pop music isn’t iconic.” I cannot count how many times many new and amazing musicians and songwriters have said that they were inspired by artists from the 2000s and 2010’s. For example, Olivia Rodrigo and Gracie Abrams, two amazing award winning songwriters and musicians from the 2020’s, haven’t only used 70s and 80s artists as their inspirations, but also Taylor Swift, Lorde, Phoebe Bridgers, and The Killers have been PROMINENT influences to them. And these are artists from the 2010’s, mind you. “Songwriting is “subjective to a point?” Yes. Because it’s SONGWRITING, idiot. It’s TASTE. Songwriting has sheer diversity and many different characteristics one must apply depending on style, genre, or approach. Despite the fact that songwriting obviously has specific norms and objective qualities, like pretty much ANY field of music, value is songwriting is 100% subjective. What one likes, another won’t. You’re not proving anything with your comment. Even so, you’re saying modern pop is “cookie cutter” sounds with little variation? It’s POP MUSIC, idiot. It’s supposed to sound simple, basic, and use minimal foundations in order to make a great product. And before you say that there is much more complex sounding pop music, yes there is. There are multiple genres and subgenres of pop music out there that almost all have different sounds and styles. But at the end of the day, it’s pop music. It’s digestible and easily accessible by anyone. This can apply for ANY decade. The 2010’s. The 1980’s. The FREAKING 1950’s for God’s sake. If you’re not a fan of “modern pop,” then step out of mainstream radio and go ask for modern music recommendations on any social media site, rather than just complaining to a two year old comment of mine on RUclips. All you’re literally doing is trying to “prove my point wrong,” but instead you’re talking but saying nothing useful at all. You’re only just trying to showcase your “boomer old head” mentality and try to compare the value of different kinds of music, without explaining WHY you hate it, WHY you think the songwriting/production suddenly isn’t iconic to you, and you never explained any good reasoning to back yourself up. You’re only trying to shove your opinions down my throat and expect me to take it. It doesn’t work that way, buddy. If we decided to take your logic into play, why the hell would we still be doing music today, then? You said, there’s nothing iconic about music today, so why do it? Because it’s an art. Music is art. Music fosters creativity. Music can be made for the sake of it or to be made for the people. Music can make us laugh and cry. No matter what decade you go to, there will always be many different kinds of iconic music. You’re not cool and cultured. You’re just obnoxious and you sound stupid.
Love 1987, probably my favourite year for music! I was 14 and it was the year I became a fan of the Pet Shop Boys, so I’ve been a Pethead for 35 years now! Also got into Erasure, they’re my 2nd faves, so glad to hear a few songs from both duos on this compilation! 🎵😍🎹
Michael Jackson, Eurythmics, Def Leppard, Sabrina, Dead or Alive, Europe, Sandra, Aerosmith, Whitesnake, INXS, Heart, A-ha, Bon Jovi, Bee Gees, Johnny Hates Jazz and so many more great artists with even greater hits, this was a blessing for my ears and the video felt like a small concert to me. ♥
Love bites - Def Leppard; Carrie- Europe; Is this love? - Whitesnake; With or without you - U' 2; I' ll be over you- Totto; Never say goodbye- Bon Jovi. 💗💗💗 Bests ballads' 87. 💗💗💗
1987 was the year I first entered college. 54 songs I remember were awesome. 15 songs I heard in passing before but didn't know the artist. 40 songs not heard before but are from popular artists. 31 songs I have never heard nor know the artist.
I remember listening to all this songs in my walkman, I am 45 now and I still listening on my SiriusXM God I love my 8❤️'S that's one thing that they don't think from me
I was born in 2006 and I love the 80s. I almost knew every song tho but still getting there. I'm 14 now and still love the 80s. The song Wanted Dead Or Alive is still my bias and never ever gets old.
What a fantastic list🌟 such a variety - rock, pop, soft songs, instrumental, duets. Some of these I didn't know, so it was great to hear of other 80s music, in addition to the bigger hits. Now there are just a handful of good songs. Not much variety either. Now, you have to seek out different kinds of music.
Autotune ≠ not talented And music today is still fun, and you can still dance to it, and there are plenty of singers today who actually sing. Either you’re not finding the right artists for you, you’re an oldhead, OR you’re probably elitist. It’s not your taste, it doesn’t mean modern music is bad.
@@arturoromero951Old head? I guess your parents didn’t kick your butt growing up as they should have. You will wake up one day and be 40 and won’t believe it. 80’s music has remained popular since the 80’s. So many iconic artists. Today’s artists won’t stand the test of time. As far songwriting quality, it’s only subjective to a point. Modern pop is mostly cookie cutter and when Taylor Swift is at the top, that says how bad it is. Then again, we haven’t had a pop song with a key change since 2009.
Great memories. I had a Tower Records near my home and I picked up a number of songs and albums from this list. I recall a HUGE line at the store on the day the Bad album by Michael Jackson came out.
What great memories listening to these stirs up, reminds me of the love of my life ,sadly we never stayed together , but hearing this lot makes me miss her so much even now

"But ya gotta realize that this world is not a perfect place... Bruce Willis has a record deal!" --John Stamos, in the 'Full House' pilot, September 1987
I was 5 years old in 1987 and 1 of my favorite songs that wasn’t included in this video was living on a prayer by Bon jovi but my other favorite song that was included is nothing’s gonna stop us now from starship
Maybe for YOU it isn’t. But there is great stuff in our modern era like there was in the 80s. Maybe it’s not your taste. It doesn’t mean modern music isn’t great.
I never understood how someone as talented as Terence Trent D’arby didn’t have a follow up album (if he did I never heard of it). He was way underrated.
He did. The second album was … not bad. Probably not bad for a new artist. It was kind of delusion for such a great debut. Just after he changed his name, and moved to Italy (Milan, I met him often in that city). Sanada Maitreya. He still make music. Still “not bad”.
@@alexarnz1 why change the name? He still has some name recognition. He certainly wouldn’t be the first artist to make a great debut and then the sophomore album was disappointing.
I saw an interview with him recently - he said fame that young wasn’t good for him, he felt it was changing him into a version of himself he didn’t like. He came across as very thoughtful and interesting
I love the 80s but the 70s win best musical decade by a long shot. The 80s was okay, but the 70s had Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Rush, AC/DC, and all the much maligned but totally fun and awesome funk and disco bands. There was no better decade for music in my opinion.
Most of these were played over the PA where I worked as a 15 year old in a Grocery Store, great memories with friends and school. Life was so much better back then.
If your referring to modern day Pop music as compared to 30 years ago,than it's pretty self explanatory.. The mainstream music industry is all corporate run now.. The major labels are only interested in making a quick buck and not in the quality of music.. they recruit young mediocre talent, mostly former disney stars that have a specific trendy marketable ascethic look to appeal to their target audience of young naive adolescent teens.. The vast majority of these young pop stars know very little or have very basic knowledge in regards to musical composition and most don't even know how to play an instrument and relay on auto tune to compensate for their limited vocal ability..their labels then hire the same 5 major production and songwriting teams to manufacture their specific sound.. that's why it all sounds generic and the same..it lacks in authenticity, quality and originality.. it appeals to people of the lowest common denominator, specifically the tik tok generation of simpletons.. There are many young talented musicians out there today who produce quality music. Unfortunately, their music doesn't see the light of day or its buried in music streaming services because the labels have no incentive to promote them.. they prefer quantity over quality. Pop music has always had it's fair share of bad music on the charts over the decades, but modern day Pop music has reached an all time low now and it's getting progressively worse.
@@miketapazis1179 Again, it seems that we have another lazy and ignorant musical rant about someone who thinks that they know about the current state of pop music and the “industry secrets.” Looks like someone has been watching WAY too much of that shitty Thoughty2 video so of course decided that they are going to base their whole opinion onto this huge opinionated one-sided music rant about “wah wah why pop music today is worse wah wah” talk. And of course, it seems like we have another person ignorant about Autotune and musical effects, but it seems that you’re not ready for that conversation yet. Many musical RUclipsrs, including Tantacrul, Rick Beato, RoomieOfficial, and others have analyzed and discussed about the current state of pop music and have even done multiple compilations where they say many positive things and some things they wish could change. They go over many of the different artists, how TikTok has affected and made many interesting ways for artists to get famous and make pop tunes, and discuss many of the musical effects and elements that are used in certain songs for today. And these are coming from ACTUAL professional musicians in the field. And I recommend you check some videos out or ask people about them rather than sitting here and making the same old tired “pop music today sucks” music rant. Here, many of the actual statements about “these young stars don’t know music composition,” “they only get hired cuz of looks,” “they only rely on Autotune,” “they hire the same 5 songwriters/production teams,” all “pop music today is very generic and the same” are both: A.) very one-sided and just ignorant claims made by oldheads as a way show that they hate the modern music scene without doing the research (whether mainstream or indie), and B.) mostly very inaccurate when comparing to a great amount of young pop musicians who are both popular mainstream-wise and who have great musical skill. And, at the same time, many of the statements you give about “quantity over quality” or “pop music is progressively worse now” and other BS have all already been arguments that literally applies to ANY music made in ANY music decade. 2010’s? Oh, people will criticize the use of the Millennial whoop and how pop music now is mostly stale electronically produced. Early 2000’s? People will argue that pop is only catering to teenagers and only care has hot looking men/women in this industry-built groups. There are so many examples I could go over but that would take all day. Your comment isn’t the “shining beacon of knowledge” that you think it is. It’s really just an opinionated rant and a grift just to get the “modern music haters” and “musical elitists” to start pleasuring themselves with this information. Some claims you make could sound very true and factual, however anyone that can read and apply common sense know that many of the claims you make are ignorant, baseless, one-sided, inaccurate, and just plain distasteful to both the musicians and artists of today. Shit, if we all listened to YOUR advice, we probably would all quit music school. We would quit music in general. Besides, music labels only hire aTtRaCtIve pEoPLe so there’s no WAY we’d have a chance. Why the hell would we still do music if tHaT’s the case? See? That is how flawed your logic is. Even if you have musical experience, you’re very close-minded and haven’t opened up to a good amount of possibilities in music of all backgrounds.
I really enjoyed listened to my favourite artistst Prince and George Michael and Rick astley,i enjoyed my early childhood between two years and six years old when my mother raised me
1987 wow wha a year ....being 17 and carefree !! I always get a lump in my throat and tears when I watch 80’s music , I’d give anything to go back there !!!!!
I turned sixteen years old in August 1987, during all of the music being made and released at this time in music history! I bought MOST of the music here on what we had back been then called... "cassettes!"
Yes, we are aware that cassettes and compact discs were very big back then. The only people probably that don’t know that are some young people in my era.
Ahhh familiar song i heard years ago 0:34 Yoh!, I’m a Bad! You’re bad!!! 2:53 Don’t mean nothing 4:26 Here i go again 5:20 I wanna dance with somebody 8:14 Melody and hate (Never gonna give you up) 8:22 Gonna change my love for you 8:36 Nothing’s gonna stop us now
Oh Random guy whenever I watch your videos i feel so nostalgic i start tearing up😢..Kenny logins meet me halfway.. Debbie Gibson..Pet shop boys its a sin.. Madonna la isla Bonita.. U2 with or without you..those were the days of great music🤗🧡😍
Absolutely great list, great year! Love lists like this, from any one year in particular, because there's no chance of encountering the hideous drop in standard of music one comes across by listening to 98% of the chart music of, say, the last ten years or so... 😁
20 years. This channel’s top 100 songs of X year, I’ll genuinely like/love usually at least half of the songs from about 1982 to 1998. After 2001 though, the quality falls off a freaking cliff. Maybe 5 songs out of a year if I am generous.
Alone, Hold me now, I think we're alone now, La Bamba, Nothing's gonna change my love for you, Nothing's gonna stop us now True Faith, Voyage voyage, With or without you, Wonderful life and You're the voice
Listening to these music video just brought my memories back to when I was still in mid air cause of Flights Strike in Queensland Australia in 1987. 😂😂😂
The fact that you put the most underrated single by Pet Shop Boys on this list makes me love you even more. Thank you. Also thank you for putting Joshua Tree singles in here too. ^_^
Congratulations 👋👋👋! My favorites on this compilation is "Toy Boy" by Sinitta and "Voyage, Voyage. But" Another step"by Kim Wilde, "Etienne" by Guesch Patti, "I Come undone" by Jennifer Rush and "Soul Survivor" by C. C. Catch was also a big hits in 1987.

@@miketapazis1179 If that’s meant to be an insult, then that’s SO weak, considering this discussion is over a year old. Do better, buddy. 😂
If your referring to modern day Pop music as compared to 30 years ago,than it's pretty self explanatory.. The mainstream music industry is all corporate run now.. The major labels are only interested in making a quick buck and not in the quality of music.. they recruit young mediocre talent, mostly former disney stars that have a specific trendy marketable ascethic look to appeal to their target audience of young naive adolescent teens.. The vast majority of these young pop stars know very little or have very basic knowledge in regards to musical composition and most don't even know how to play an instrument and relay on auto tune to compensate for their limited vocal ability..their labels then hire the same 5 major production and songwriting teams to manufacture their specific sound.. that's why it all sounds generic and the same..it lacks in authenticity, quality and originality.. it appeals to people of the lowest common denominator, specifically the tik tok generation of simpletons.. There are many young talented musicians out there today who produce quality music. Unfortunately, their music doesn't see the light of day or its buried in music streaming services because the labels have no incentive to promote them.. they prefer quantity over quality. Pop music has always had it's fair share of bad music on the charts over the decades, but modern day Pop music has reached an all time low now and it's getting progressively worse.
@@miketapazis1179 Again, it seems that we have another lazy and ignorant musical rant about someone who thinks that they know about the current state of pop music and the “industry secrets.” Looks like someone has been watching WAY too much of that shitty Thoughty2 video so of course decided that they are going to base their whole opinion onto this huge opinionated one-sided music rant about “wah wah why pop music today is worse wah wah” talk. And of course, it seems like we have another person ignorant about Autotune and musical effects, but it seems that you’re not ready for that conversation yet.
Many musical RUclipsrs, including Tantacrul, Rick Beato, RoomieOfficial, and others have analyzed and discussed about the current state of pop music and have even done multiple compilations where they say many positive things and some things they wish could change. They go over many of the different artists, how TikTok has affected and made many interesting ways for artists to get famous and make pop tunes, and discuss many of the musical effects and elements that are used in certain songs for today. And these are coming from ACTUAL professional musicians in the field. And I recommend you check some videos out or ask people about them rather than sitting here and making the same old tired “pop music today sucks” music rant.
Here, many of the actual statements about “these young stars don’t know music composition,” “they only get hired cuz of looks,” “they only rely on Autotune,” “they hire the same 5 songwriters/production teams,” all “pop music today is very generic and the same” are both: A.) very one-sided and just ignorant claims made by oldheads as a way show that they hate the modern music scene without doing the research (whether mainstream or indie), and B.) mostly very inaccurate when comparing to a great amount of young pop musicians who are both popular mainstream-wise and who have great musical skill. And, at the same time, many of the statements you give about “quantity over quality” or “pop music is progressively worse now” and other BS have all already been arguments that literally applies to ANY music made in ANY music decade. 2010’s? Oh, people will criticize the use of the Millennial whoop and how pop music now is mostly stale electronically produced. Early 2000’s? People will argue that pop is only catering to teenagers and only care has hot looking men/women in this industry-built groups. There are so many examples I could go over but that would take all day.
Your comment isn’t the “shining beacon of knowledge” that you think it is. It’s really just an opinionated rant and a grift just to get the “modern music haters” and “musical elitists” to start pleasuring themselves with this information. Some claims you make could sound very true and factual, however anyone that can read and apply common sense know that many of the claims you make are ignorant, baseless, one-sided, inaccurate, and just plain distasteful to both the musicians and artists of today. Shit, if we all listened to YOUR advice, we probably would all quit music school. We would quit music in general. Besides, music labels only hire aTtRaCtIve pEoPLe so there’s no WAY we’d have a chance. Why the hell would we still do music if tHaT’s the case? See? That is how flawed your logic is. Even if you have musical experience, you’re very close-minded and haven’t opened up to a good amount of possibilities in music of all backgrounds.
87 The year i was born have so many great songs Don't dreams it's over definitely my favorite one.
I knew and liked 70 out of these songs. I would be surprised if I like more than 3 in a video of the music from 2021.
45. The Other Ones - Holiday ...That's my jam!!!
Good job, i remember this time😢😢 many singers died 😢😢
I really enjoyed listened to my favourite artistst Prince and George Michael and Rick astley,i enjoyed my early childhood between two years and six years old when my mother raised me
Amo todas essas músicas 💗🤩 adooooro
best 80's bands...Europe, Great White, .......80's HAIR BANDS!!!! And the GREAT George michael!!!!
80s music is the best.
I want a time machine.Miss the 80's so much.
1987 wow wha a year ....being 17 and carefree !! I always get a lump in my throat and tears when I watch 80’s music , I’d give anything to go back there !!!!!
I turned sixteen years old in August 1987, during all of the music being made and released at this time in music history! I bought MOST of the music here on what we had back been then called... "cassettes!"
Yes, we are aware that cassettes and compact discs were very big back then. The only people probably that don’t know that are some young people in my era.
Una de las etapas más bellas de mi vida, gracias.
Wonderful times, wonderful bands, now its 2022, where did all the love go, now we're saturated with too much negativity.
The love is still around, and not all music has to be happy. Otherwise, it would be too boring.
Excellent thanks 👍 this was the best year of my life !

A collection of awesome!! 😁🥳😁
1987 ❤❤❤❤ I started high school in this year. Music was everything.
Any reason we can't find the biggest pop rock classic of the 80s in any of ur 80s hits clips...? The whole of the moon, waterboys... Cheers 🌹peace
Absolutely great list, great year! Love lists like this, from any one year in particular, because there's no chance of encountering the hideous drop in standard of music one comes across by listening to 98% of the chart music of, say, the last ten years or so... 😁
20 years. This channel’s top 100 songs of X year, I’ll genuinely like/love usually at least half of the songs from about 1982 to 1998.
After 2001 though, the quality falls off a freaking cliff. Maybe 5 songs out of a year if I am generous.
Thank you for the Memories! Love & Like theese Videos! ❤❤🇬🇧
Классный канал, люблю вас💞💞💞👍👍👍

1987 born thank you for creating this!
Muita música Boa saudades.😄
Ah, the 80's. The sky was bluer, sun was brighter, food tasted better........I miss it!
What the hell does that even mean? The “food tasted better?” Also, the Sun was pretty much the same before you and I were born. I swear some nostalgists take this way too far that it looks ridiculous
@@arturoromero951Food wasn’t so laden with additives so it may have tasted better.
@@themetalhead1463 47% of the food and soda cans in the United States were smoldered with lead in the 1980’s. So your point doesn’t prove anything.
SOURCE: Dartmouth College
@@themetalhead1463 Wrong.
1. During the 1920s, the use of insecticides led to concerns about chronic exposure to heavy metals like arsenic and lead. Arsenic was used as a green food dye and in the shellac that made chocolate shiny, while lead was used to color candies and cheese. (SOURCE: NPR and PubMed).
#2. In the 1980’s, 47% of most commercial food and sodas were laced with lead. (SOURCE: Dartmouth College)
Next time you want to actually try to prove me wrong, give better information next time.
