Because this is a page and not a group, I am having to create a new place so that we all may post our memories, photos, and any other 80’s inspired ideas. Facebook no longer allows others to post to a page.

Please search for this same name but listed as a GROUP instead of a PAGE. And let’s start sharing!

Thinking of this lesser known song by Thomas Dolby recently. What song from the 80s did you love that was from a popular artist, but wasn't as well known?

Great song off of his 1984 release "The Flat Earth". Used to get played on WXDJ 95.7 The Wave in Miami, Florida.
