This was my decade. Thank you so much ❣️ It's sad we have lost so much talent. 🕊️🙏❤️

[@janrivers6092]

I was lucky enough to see several that are listed in concert. Such a shame that music isn't good like it used to be.

[@Apollo949]

Wow. So many pop stars dying young, and some are a great loss to music, particularly Freddie Mercury.

[@Mindset6927]

I was blessed enough to see Queen when they came to Sun City (South Africa). What a privilege!! RIP Freddie, we still miss you man!

[@loboblanco4426]

All who we've lost I miss Freddie Mercury and hurts so much that today it is not the same death sentence as it was back then I am blessed to have seen him with Queen at Boston Garden and it remains one of the top three I've seen in my lifetime some forty years later!!

[@markwegner6821]

A Brilliant record of the 80's, which was a significant decade of new styles and bands. Your presentation is soooo good💎 .

[@bettinajoseph3758]

Many great hits in the 80ies Love Talk Talk

[@neutral6941]

[@joanncales1067]

Many musicians has passed on over these decade's but their music still go on for all the people who loved their music. I loved the late 60's thru the 90' s I started listening to these band's and musicians at a very young age and still love all these bands that I have listening too over the year. People die which is sad but they have left behind something for everyone is their music for us to remember them as we listen to their music.

[@davepedersen2115]

I've seen Run DMC, Fleetwood Mac, and Depeche Mode. Queen "The Game" was the first album I bought with my own money.

[@glennabate1708]

Yeah that 80s star John Lennon. I wouldn’t consider John Lennon an 80s star exactly. He had a few hits in 1980

[@RoughJustice2k18]

These 1980's singers/musicians who passed away may need to be considered for addition to a future memorial list; e.g. • Chris Bailey (lead singer and guitarist of The Saints) (November 29, 1956 - April 9, 2022) Age: 65. • Tina Turner (November 26, 1939 - May 24, 2023) Age: 83. • Renée Geyer (Australian singer) (September 11, 1953 - January 17, 2023) Age: 69. • Sinéad O'Connor (Irish singer) (December 8, 1966 - July 26, 2023) Age: 56. • Bernadette Nolan (lead vocalist of all-girl sibling pop group The Nolans) (October 17, 1960 - July 4, 2013) Age: 52. • Randy Rhoads (American guitarist) (December 6, 1956 - March 19, 1982) Age: 25. • Doc Neeson (singer-songwriter, musician, and lead singer of The Angels) (January 4, 1947 - June 4, 2014) Age: 67. • Ray Sawyer (vocalist and percussionist of Dr. Hook) (February 1, 1937 - December 31, 2018) Age: 81. • Marc Hunter (lead singer of Dragon) (7 September 7, 1953 - July 17, 1998) Age: 44. • Greedy Smith (vocalist, songwriter and keyboardist of Mental As Anything) (16 January 16, 1956 - December 2, 2019) Age: 63. • Malcolm Young (guitarist, songwriter and co-founder of AC/DC) (6 January 6, 1953 - November 18, 2017) Age: 64.

Rest in peace to all

[@FishpondsLady]

This made me cry.

[@EVH9208]

I liked watching the videos of the performers. It is sad that most of them passed away in untimely circumstances (i.e. murder, illness). I only regret I didn't go to their concerts.

[@100aceswid]

Michael Jackson

[@anne-marieedwards2909]

My decade RIP💖 all so talented especially George Michael and most recently deceased Terry Hall.💕

[@shannonburns2525]

may they all rest in peace

[@murraygiles3191]

Terry Hall R I P LEGEND

[@WilburGarysMum]

Regardless of the reason for dying, this proves the fragility of life.

[@user-mu7kk1fd6l]

I was so sad wen I found out that Mark Hollins died😢

[@Greatricardo5244]

I was lucky enough to see Christine mcvie when Fleetwood Mac played Wembley stadium and Alan white and Chris squire when Yes played Wembley arena , they will be missed R.I.P

[@jamescockings6852]

Saw Big Country (Stuart Adamson) and Climie Fisher(Rob Fisher) both at a Sport Aid Concert in 1988 in Hillsborough Park, Sheffield, England. Big Country still ranks as one of best gigs ever whilst Climie Fisher were boo’d off for miming to a “House Music Mix” of their hit where Rob Fisher tried to mime to samples of house music records mixed with the original version of Love Changes Everything.

[@charlesbaldo]

Never saw Rick James but ran into a lot in Buffalo bars. Once saw him at a bar with Eddie Murphy.

[@aylakraly5155]

You didnt mention Eddie Van Halen!!!

[@roselyncampisi822]

Freddy queen best concert evr

[@craigymarsh941]

Steve Strange from Visage wasn't mentioned nor was Shane Macgowan from The Pogues, Eric Carmen wasn't mentioned, and Benny Mardones wasn't mentioned.

[@genxreactions]

Well that was depressing, Im about to turn 52

[@Whii239]

Freddie Mercury

[@josephambrose2852]

Never heard of half of them Forgive me 😢

[@ornellabreschi3598]

PETE BURNS my love 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@Agnethatheredhairkid]

I like Freddie Mercury, Manny Charlton (loved Nazareth), Christine McVie, Brian Hibberd and Roy Orbison. Brian Hibberd was in 'Coronation Street' in the early 1990s, portraying Deirdre Barlow's love interest Doug Murray.

[@piscesempress1978]

I love all of them.. Will miss them. Brian had a beautiful voice with the Flying Pickets, I love their version of Only you.

[@danamcardle1403]

Define 80s performer, more than half got their fame decades earlier

[@earthcat]

You left out Robert Palmer and a few others 🌹🍺

[@MrViking842000]

He was on the first video...ding dong

[@RoughJustice2k18]

They left Frankie Banali (Quiet Riot drummer) out.

[@trevorholzer7456]

5:20 For Naomi Judd it was sad my favorite country singer gone when I saw her on TV just to short 😇🤠😥

[@trishamorriston3737]

Jim Stineman also produced for Meatloaf

[@sergiogiappi4313]

mel sempre nel cuore

[@s_metal-su5si]

When Alec John Such passed away I was so sad, it was my last day of school and when I got home the first thing I heard was he died

[@Kittymama20]

I saw John Denver back in the late 70s. It was the first concert held at the Universal Amphitheater and also was recorded. Not the coolest music maybe, but I really liked him.

[@allisonjohnson2796]

I miss George Michael from Wham! He’s the best singer.🥺🥺🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️ 2 questions I wanted to ask: Q1: what’s Bowel Cancer? Q2: In one of the videos you made, if the original voice of Mermaid Man played by Ernest Borgnine has died in 2012, who will be the new voice of Mermaid Man in SpongeBob SquarePants??

[@mcatcatt6239]

What about randy rhoads?

[@RoughJustice2k18]

Randy Rhoads died in 1982, and should be on the list of musicians. He was only 25.

[@MrViking842000]

Well, you forgot Tommy Page, he had a huge hit in the 80's

[@MS-ro9dm]

Paul Young was in Mike and The Mechanics? Maybe they meant Carrick.

[@eightiesmusic1984]

He was. So was Paul Carrack.

[@MS-ro9dm]

@@eightiesmusic1984 I was not aware. Did he record with them?

[@eightiesmusic1984]

@@MS-ro9dm Paul Young was originally in Sad Cafe and is not the Paul Young of early to mid eighties fame. I met his girlfriend in a hospital once when I was volunteering for hospital radio collecting requests (1986). Sadly he died in 2000.

[@RoughJustice2k18]

@@eightiesmusic1984 That is correct. Paul Young (former lead vocalist of _Mike + The Mechanics_ as mentioned in the video clip) is deceased and should not be confused with solo artist Paul Young who is still alive; he had a handful of hit singles (between 1983 and 1985) including "Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home)", "Love of the Common People", "Come Back and Stay", and "Every Time You Go Away". 😎

[@Ingens_Scherz]

Thanks for this :) Small correction: Brian Hibbard died from "prostate" cancer (not "prostrate").

[@alexoman7161]

I never knew michael jackson was in wham! 9:11

[@newforestexplorer]

And had a name change

[@nafieseabdul3690]

It’s so sad to hear that Marvin Gaye was killed…BY HIS OWN FATHER. I hope that his father was put behind bars for that. Seriously though, like why would he go and do that to his own son? That’s low, even for him. So I hope his dad was put in prison for that. 😢😡

[@kaleoy7584]

No Prince?

[@MrViking842000]

he was on the first edition..

[@Lexi95]

Where’s Michael Jackson

[@janrivers6092]

The so called music of today can't touch the music from the eighties. A lot of these people can't carry a tune. That is why I listen to the oldies station now.

[@janrivers6092]

I ve

[@glenn7152]

Lennon passed in 1980 Makes him,a 60's/70's Musician?!

[@Phil_A_O_Fish]

Nice going, @NOSTALGIA HIT, especially when you managed to get Michael Jackson to join Wham! at the very end of this video, didn't you? 👎🤣👎

[@dv8mr2]

Was just going to comment the same. He died earlier in the video, then reincarnated as Michael Jackson face and died again.

[@Phil_A_O_Fish]

@@dv8mr2, here's an update for you and the rest of the world. @NOSTALGIA HIT have since cut George Michael Jackson from the very end of this video since I posted my original comment and it now ends after the sad passing of Terry Hall. R.I.P. Terry Hall and all of the rest of them of course.

[@unknowpeople1614]

I thought Andy Gibbs died due to drug overdose

[@gogoyubari366]

John Lennon.

[@amzdaniel858]

RIP💯✝️🙏🏼
