[Edited on October 1, 2007 at 5:05 PM. Reason : yeah]

10/1/2007 5:04:50 PM

is it a typical 80's party type mix or a mix of actual good 80's music? if it's just an 80's party mix i like to include 'In a Big Country' by Big Country.

10/1/2007 5:06:37 PM

GNR: Paradise City, Welcome to the Jungle, Sweet Child of Mine, and though it was never a popular hit, Rocket Queen.

10/1/2007 5:08:23 PM

[Edited on October 1, 2007 at 5:09 PM. Reason : GNR]

^^ that would have been pertinent information at the beginning. this thread is larger than you now. you can't stop the 80s.

[Edited on October 1, 2007 at 5:13 PM. Reason : ^]

10/1/2007 5:10:43 PM

well then you gotta have new order 'age of consent', and maybe kraftwerk 'computer love' and the jam 'that's entertainment'

10/1/2007 5:12:43 PM

when you get that mix done, I'd like a copy.
