There is no doubt that in exchanging a self-centered for a selfless life we gain enormously in self-esteem.
For some reason, this building above says more 1982 to me than it does 1973. Now, 1982 I remember, and I think that it may have been slightly rubbish. Not even Eye of the Tiger or Come on Eileen could retrieve this stinker of a year.
In fact, I can't help but feel that the whole of the 1980s kind of sucked. So did the 1990s for that matter. Actually, this decade needs to pull its socks up to avoid getting the thumbs down. If I'm honest, I'd have to say that it's all been downhill from 1760. Now that was a good decade.

Also, I'd have to agree that the 80's and 90's sucked, but 1997 was a very good year for me.

The 90s? Well, it had Warrant...
A few years ago (2002 I think) I was on holiday in Greece and went to a club with a friend. It was playing 80s music, and as soon as Come On Eileen came on we were up there dancing. And then I looked round and realised we were the only people in the entire place that remembered the song the first time round - pretty much everyone else there wouldn't have been born yet. Talk about a crushing realisation - it was like my own mortality staring me in the face and laughing cruelly.
Miles, did Warrant do anything other than Cherry Pie? I preferred Mr Big...
Jackie, my Henry loves to dance to Come on Eileen, so he could have joined you on the dance floor.
You weren’t locked in a bedroom listening to The Smiths over and over were you? I hope that it was The Smiths, and not something ordinary like New Order or the Cure...
