3 out of 5 stars Pretty good 80s compilation.......2002-04-16

I'd rate this in the average to above-average category as far as compilations of 80s music go. There are some good songs here, but not enough new wave/modern rock/synth-pop (insert adjective here) for my personal taste.

For example, although I like Belinda Carlisle's "Heaven is a Place on Earth," I wouldn't pair it with some of these other songs and artists, once example being Men Without Hats. Speaking of them, I was disappointed to discover that the version of "Safety Dance" is the short version, which does not include the best part, where the ethereal woman's voice echoes out "S-A-F-E-T-Y dance."

In summation, however, I do not regret buying this CD, because it has enough songs I like to make it worth the investment. (I was especially happy that they included "Axel F" by Harold Faltermeyer, because that is quite hard to find!)

5 out of 5 stars Excellent selection!.......1999-08-26

This is an 80's cd that I always love to find. Numerous music selections that have been my favorites for years. I should buy another copy because I am wearing this one out.

4 out of 5 stars A better title - "The Forgotten 80's".......2006-06-09

I bought the CD because of the song "Right on Track" by a band a called The Breakfast Club. The song has almost disappeared completely from the music landscape (along with its 1-hit wonder band). Big overrated hits on this compilation include INXS' "The Devil Inside" and "Keep Your Hands To Yourself" by that dreadful group, Georgia Satellites. Still, there's enough quality 80's stuff on this disc, surrounded by OK B-list filler, to make it worth picking up. These solid tracks include "Only the lonely" [Motels] and "Everytime You Go Away" [Paul Young].

5 out of 5 stars Lots of songs that don't seem to get collected much!.......2002-06-13

This is a great compilation. With 14 songs, it has enough length that you don't feel bored listening to it a second time. The songs themselves sound good together -- whoever picked them did a pretty good job. I particularly like "Keep Your Hands to Yourself" -- never seen that one on a compilation before. If you're in the market to get a compilation, well, this one's the best one I've seen yet.
