The Beachy 80s: 'Fire In the Twilight' by Wang Chung (1985)
Ahoy 80s Fans! Its been awhile since I did a proper written post, the quickie posts are just too easy. So, I've got another Beachy 80s track for you, and it is...Fire In the Twilight by Wang Chung. The song was released in February of 1985 on motion picture soundtrack of the über-80s classic movie The Breakfast Club. Now, I don't know what makes it "beachy" persay, but I just had visions of driving down a beach-highway at sunset with the convertible top off, so there it is. If you want more info on Wang Chung, then check out some of me previous song posts of them, or look HERE. Well, that was easy! Til next time, watch this space for more 80s!

Year: 1984
So, as with my other blog I've decided to start doing more regular random music posts with less writing as I figure that will lead to more music being posted and more exposure for artists and their music, so be sure to go find their songs/albums and buy them if you like them.

Tragic Love in the 80s: 'The Breakup Song (They Don't Write 'Em)' by Greg Kihn Band (1981)
Ahoy 80s fans! DJ Purple Sneakers here with another cherry-picked Tragic Love in the 80s track for you. This one is more rockin' than some of the previous slower ballad types I've posted under this sub-genre, and the song is The Breakup Song by American rock group The Greg Kihn Band. The Greg Kihn Band was formed back in 1976 by frontman Greg Kihn and bassist Steve Wright in Berkeley, California, USA. The Breakup Song was released on the band's 4th studio album Rockihnroll in 1981, it would peak at #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and #5 on the Billboard Top Tracks chart.
