Special thanks to Goob, who pointed me to this gem of a page with TONS of 80′s music videos. I’m sure there are other resources out there, but this one brought me the pleasure of watching Big Country’s video (I say one because, really, did they have any other hits?) for the first time in over 20 years. Check them out in all their grainy glory… and feel free to share your favorites!
Did everyone in Scotland ride ATVs in the 80′s down to the shore and go scuba diving?
dammit.
not again, Bruce.
why did this make me laugh so hard?

The most detailed picture of a sunspot
The photo shows a sun spot at about 3600ºC, surrounded by a mosaic at 5800ºC. The image was taken on July 2 with the Big Bear Solar Observatory team; a 5.25-feet telescope that is able to resolve sun details as small as 45 kilometers in optimal conditions. The image itself shows details measuring 0.09 arcseconds, which is about 65 kilometers.

OK …, why isn’t “Never Gonna Give You Up” on there? I am very disappointed … as I currently watch “Together Forever.”

[raises hand]
I always loved that Big Country song. Never fail to turn up the volume REALLY loud when it comes on the radio. Wonder why they never had any more hits? And, isn’t the lead singer now dead? I think he committed suicide a couple of years ago. Whoa…sorry to bring the party down…
I am a closet Dolly Parton fan. That “Jolene” video is fantastic, particularly the long preamble to the London audience.
…BTW…my FAVORITE 80′s song. you’ve chosen wisely! I challenge anyone to listen to the song and not feel happy afterward.
