150 Hit Songs of 1987

[@somerandomguy_music]

If you want to support my channel: www.buymeacoffee.com/somerandomguy1 The original video '140 Hit Songs of 1987' got blocked due to copyright infringement a few weeks ago, so I started to make a new version, adding and replacing some songs. In the meantime, the original video got unblocked, but I decided to upload this new video nevertheless.

[@wendyc7730]

I'm heading over to that other now.

1987 was one of fhe best years for music, and was also the year I became a fan of the Pet Shop Boys! 35 years of being a Pethead being celebrated this year, especially as I saw them at the Manchester Arena in May. 😍😍😍

Nice how was it?

35 Years Later, Still Timeless Classics !!!

[@rjjcms1]

Watching the World Snooker Championship currently,and all the players have a walk-on song from which a snatch is played when they make their entrance. Some are good choices,some bad,one or two amusing like Robert Milkins coming on to I Am a Cider Drinker by the Wurzels and Dominic Dale choosing I'm the Urban Spaceman by the Bonzo Dog Doodah Band (the Spaceman having long been his nickname on the circuit). Ste[phen Maguire has one of the best choices in Whitesnake's Here I Go Again (hopefully the 1982 version which is superior to the 1987 one that was the bigger chart hit); his opponent today Shaun Murphy has Disco Inferno by the Trammps,which is ace.

Thanks so much for making this playlist. Your videos always make me wish that I had a flux capacitor and a DeLorean time machine! 😂🚙

another great list to start off the weekend!!!!! love it!!!!!

[@some.random.baldie2111]

Thank you for this upload. 35 years ago already. The year a relative of mine was born and my closest friend. It is a very strong year with the Fleetwood Mac comeback - 'Little Lies' is a big favourite of mine (probably equal first). 'Call Me' is a guilty pleasure. 'Carrie' much better than 'The Final Countdown'. Very emotional power ballad. My joint favourite along with T'Pau's 'China In Your Hand'. A shame 'Everything Is Coming Up Roses' was never a big hit for Black here. I love the Elton and Jennifer Rush duet. My second fave of this list. Shame it wasn't a huge hit here. Both their voices gel and it's a catchy song. Jennifer Rush never got the credit here bar the divine 'The Power Of Love'. 'Hold Me Now' great ESC winner. 'I Just Can't Stop Loving You' divine ballad and 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody' gets me on the dancefloor. They're joint third. Pet Shop Boys were on fire then. God there's so many to list, I don't want to hijack your comments lol. Madge was on fire then love 'La Isla Bonita'. One of Janet's best ballads 'Lets Wait A While'. 'Luka' kind of hit new ground then, especially as a song about a mistreated child was rare and taboo in 1987. Sam Fox is amazing - my relative born in 1987 fancies her even now! Bruce Willis had a good set of pipes. Talented singer and actor. The lead singer in the 'Shattered Dreams ' video, could look like someone from 2022! 'Songbird' is absolutely beautiful. Erasure finally hit the big time and deserved. A very top year musically. Terrence Trent Darby is wonderful - gorgeous voice.

[@rjjcms1]

Couple of songs at least that I hadn't heard for absolute donkey's years on this. Near the start of that year I landed my first permanent job,having been on temporary contracts before then with the odd period kicking my heels in between.

[@banksofbarcelona3893]

I heard a rumour that you were planning to drop an amazing playlist today whispered to me by Allison Hargreeves so I pumped up the volume, it makes me wanna dance with somebody. I just cant stop loving your playlists cos when I fall in love, it'd be forever. You're the channel for me, the way You make me feel! Nothing is gonna stop me now. I lean on you for amazing songs like this when I'm not strong. Didn't we almost have it all? I was warned, if I don't fight for your right to party the rhythm wasn't gonna get you, tonight! hence I couldn't rock steady, steady rocking all night long, or may be because I'm bad, I'm bad, I'm really really bad. Who's bad? RIP No-no-Notorious. Enjoy your weekend!

La Bamba by Los Lobos had just swiped the number 1 spot in the UK that week,with the rest of the top 5 including Who's That Girl by Madonna,Always by Atlantic Starr,It's a Sin by the Pet Shop Boys (great record) and Alone by Heart (the high note to end all high notes). The ball was set rolling towards buying our first house at that very time.

When music was really music ... So much better than what you sometimes hear on the radio nowadays

[@arturoromero951]

Music today is still music, just not your type of music. It’s just your taste, it doesn’t mean it’s bad. You try to argue, you only prove my point further.

[@rjjcms1]

Music may still be music,but this isn't even one of the strongest years of the 80s in my opinion (not the weakest either) and yet it knocks the autotuned mainstream pop on some radio stations play now into the most cocked of cocked hats.

[@arturoromero951]

@@rjjcms1 it’s not “may.” It “is” still music. Whether you wanna accept it or not. As said, it’s not your cup of tea. Everyone has different tastes in music. And even so, people back then blamed mainstream pop music from the 80s back then. Much like what you’re doing now. It’s all taste in the end.

[@stephanievantielen5615]

@@arturoromero951Dear lord it's just an opinion nothing more...everyone has their taste in music, no matter what age... and there's nothing wrong with that ! And besides where do I try to argue,? Did I offended someone? Or am I not allowed to have my own opinion ?

[@arturoromero951]

1987 was a great year for music, and the year I graduated from high school. By the way, the timing of this video couldn't be more appropriate. Debbie Gibson has two songs in this video, and yesterday was the 35th anniversary of the release of her debut album, Out of the Blue.

Eres muy preciso en ubicar los temas musicales en el año que corresponde (pues en otros sitios he visto errores) aunque, y hay que decirlo, hay temas que se repiten de un año al siguiente.
