Something about the 80s, the most diverse, atmospheric, melodic music of our times. So many great bands: Talking Heads, Television, Husker Du, Depeche Mode, The Cure, New Order, Tears for Fears, The Police, The Cars, B62s, INXS, Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Human League, Eurythmics, OMD, The Pretenders, Thompson Twins, The Fixx, XTC, Howard Jones, Joe Jackson, Violent Femmes, Level 42 ... Just to name a few of my favorites.

[@coldwhite4240]

Such a brilliantly diverse decade, the best in in modern music history, IMO. The 1950s to 70s had been building the experimentation, variety and importance of youth ("popular") music, but it all peaked in the 80s. The 1990s were quite good too, but by the turn of the century things had changed, mainstream tastes had narrowed, commerce had completely taken over, and I don't think we'll ever see the same variety and mix of anarchy, energy, creativity, anger, pain, thoughtfulness, fun and humour that the music of the 80s had in spades.

[@profbuty]

Come see Echo and the Bunnymen at House of Blues in Dallas on May 8!! They’re great in concert. They came last year and they still have it!

The wife is good - CURE, Siouxie, and Echo and the Bunnymen were some of the alternative kids favorites bands at the time..... add NEW ORDER. Depeche Mode, and many more others.

[@csn10]

I would add the Daniel Ash bands (Bauhaus, Tones on Tail, Love and Rockets) for more of that dark post-punk/new wave sound coupled with Radiohead/Bowie levels of experimental sounds (starting way back in the late 70's with The Cure and Gang of Four).

Thank you so much for getting into them! Ian McCulloch is the lead singer. They do have SUCH an extensive catalog and there are so many great songs, you just can't go wrong. I hope you'll get to "Never Stop" or "The Cutter" for some great up tempo pop, "Bring On the Dancing Horses" is moody and beautiful, "Nocturnal Me" is haunting and unique, "Bedbugs and Ballyhoo" is SO MUCH FUN with a most excellent bassline. And they did a great cover of The Doors' "People Are Strange" for the movie "The Lost Boys", featuring Ray Manzarek himself on keys. I will hopefully be seeing them live this spring, one of my favorite bands ever and I'm super excited.

[@csn10]

Can't wait for Jay and Amber to discover Ian McCulloch's vocals and the rest of the band live. 1984's Live from Royal Albert Hall concert has so many great songs with videos posted on YT. I"d start with Heaven Up Here, No Dark Things, Never, Stop, Porcupine. That's my go to album over their studio recordings.

Lots more 80’s to discover!

[@hellokimmy68]

Robert Smith of the Cure was actually IN the Banshees for a time as their guitarist. He shows up in the video for their cover of the Beatles' "Dear Prudence." There was a whole era of, as you called them "dark" bands who were skirting the goth/pop/rock line during the 80s and I was all about every one of them. Love and Rockets is another band that I hope you'll get to. They sprung from Bauhaus, kind of the godfathers of goth, I guess you could say. "So Alive" and "No New Tale To Tell" were radio hits of theirs, but they go much deeper than that. Though less goth, you can put Depeche Mode into that category loosely, especially with some of their mid-late 80s material. You have no idea how thrilled I am to see these bands getting some recognition and love on your channel! This music was my LIFE all through high school and college, and I still listen to it today. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, seriously!

I loved Echo and the Bunnymen back in the day, one of my favourite 80’s groups and I hope you continue exploring their music. If you like a great guitar, haunting lyrics, catchy hooks and clear vocals, please do check out Suede (known variously as London Suede in the US). They were one of the early bands of the 90s that helped launch the new “British invasion” to the USA at the time. Similar to groups like Pulp and influencing other bands like Oasis and Blur. You’d really appreciate the guitar on hits like “Animal Nitrate”, “Trash” “shes in Fashion” “Beautiful Ones” and “Lazy” to name a few…..

[@pobstrel]

I've always loved Echo & The Bunnymen. This song which was in heavy rotation on MTV was probably their biggest splash in America, but the band already had an incredible catalog of songs before this album ever dropped. And oh yes, they did have another modest hit with their cover of The Doors' "People Are Strange" when it landed on The Lost Boys soundtrack.

[@thomascroft5076]

Ian McCulloch - vocals/rhythm guitar; Les Pattinson - bass; Will Sergeant - lead guitar; Pete De Freitas - drums. Their first five albums were magnificent - and their debut, 'Crocodiles' (1980) was a standout. They went on a hiatus for a few years following the album this track ('Lips Like Sugar') appeared on (even replacing McCulloch as lead singer at one point!) but never managed to regain their earlier magic.

Thanks. Been enjoying your trip through time. Saw them at San Diego state university in late eighties when I was already in my late 30. Variety shows in the 50’s and 60’s introduced us to music of our parents and then the rising rock groups. Still listening to new music, mostly alternative. Almost 74 and I avoid living in the musical past but you have taken me back in the most endearing way. And yes I was at Woodstock, but only Sunday morning until Monday morning leaving in muddy bell bottoms as Hendrix was playing The Star Spangled Banner. Hitched there with a NY Times reporter and hitched back to upstate NY with a car full of worn out teenagers. Keep up the positive energy.

[@Jillyconjem]

Thank you! Mac (Ian McCulloch) is my comfort voice. 💜 When I first heard the Bunnymen back in the early 80s, I went out and bought everything I could find. My love for them has only increased through the years. Nocturnal Me, Bedbugs and Ballyhoo, The Cutter, In the Margins, I Want to Be There (When You Come), and A Promise, and this one are a few of my absolute favorites of theirs. In the last few days, I was listening to The Cutter; and it brought me back to listening to it while in the car with my parents so many years ago (they’ve both been gone since the late 80s). It makes me so happy to see/hear you guys giving them a chance. I look forward to anything else that you react to. Thank you! 💜💜💜

One of my favorite bands from the new wave/alternative 80's. Great song! "The Cutter" has to be next and "Bed Bugs and Ballyhoo". Ian McCulloch (lead singer) has a unique voice that does express this style that feels strained, intense and has a passionate angst. As Amber said, this song is happy, even while feeling a bit darker. This was a style in the 80's new wave/alternative/goth that was hugely popular. You mentioned The Cure & Siouxsie & The Banshees. The Psychedlic Furs fit into this category as well and you have done "Love My Way". Look at more PSYCHEDELIC FURS - "Heartbreak Beat", "The Ghost In You", "President Gas", "Pretty in Pink (from the movie soundtrack)", "All that Money Wants", "Heaven".

This was one of the stellar class of 1987's alternative canon, where a lot of artists/ bands that spent the first half of the 80s in relative obscurity suddenly found themselves w/ hit records. This band, The Cure, Psychedelic Furs, INXS, Depeche Mode, REM, Love & Rockets, Midnight Oil, Flesh For Lulu, New Order (who released a singles remix collection, but what the hey)- all had their breakout albums this year. They weren't necessarily "sellout" albums, though- more like more people finally caught on to what they were doing. :) This was Echo's fifth studio album, and the last one with the original quarter- a year later, Pete De Freitas (the drummer) was killed in a motorcycle accident. (A year after that, in 1989, Echo singer Ian McCulloch, dedicated his first solo album, "Candleland", to him.)

I'm glad you're enjoying Echo and the Bunnymen. They were one of my favorite bands back in the 80s when I was stationed in England. There are so many songs to recommend but I think you'll enjoy their Doors cover of "People are Strange". Personally, I liked Seven Seas because of the melody. The video of Seven Seas is way more lighthearted than the two songs you've reviewed but Ian McCulloch, the lead singer's vocals is still dark.

I love this song! A great 80's hit!

there are so many 80s bands that you havent even touched that are amazing and creative. sisters of mercy, the mission, japan, the smiths, joy division, new order...omg there are so many. keep hitting the 80s alternative vibe....most of the john hughes movies soundtracks were the soundtrack of our youth! keep going out after suggestions that make you think! ✌️

Seeing Echo & The Bunnymen for the first time May 11 in New Orleans

[@ryanjordan7268]

One of my favorites 😍!!!

"Nocturnal Me" is one of their darkest, most sultry songs, as may be alluded to in the title. Love this whole album, and all I've heard from the band. It doesn't hurt that he looks like a male Anya Taylor-Young, or that the video looked like it was directed by Fritz Lang. Or that everyone in the video was good-looking, with lips like sugar.

Hi, you two! It's Andrew Erroch fae Paisley in Scotland the here again. You should check out this band's cover of The Doors song 'People Are Strange', which featured prominently in the movie, 'The Lost Boys' in 1987. They always come back to Glasgow to perform and theyll be back-up again in May this year.Their hometown of Liverpool has many similarities to Glasgow. Æx 🙏

One of the best bands ever. ✨

One of the cool 80s songs I really liked and sounded great in the clubs

[@lt.spears1889]

I’m 59 the 80’s were my time, this song is a classic

[@ejford5083]

One of my favorite 80’s songs …. Never get tired of it… good club remix version also and a good cover by Seal on this song

[@sems5881]

Always love Echo and the Bunnymen. 💋❤💋❤They were the first band I ever saw live and I have never forgotten it ! Please react to the Cure's 'Love cats ' and "Catterpillar girl' as they are so unique! and Siouxsie and the Banshees 'Happy house' and 'Christine' 2 of their earlier songs.

[@brt5273]

Yassss! SO glad you finally found this one. That sound.....dark and watery....takes me back to my club days, dancing to this was so dreamy❤ Follow it up with Siouxsie and the Banshees "Kiss them for Me"

[@RightTurnClyde]

The Bunnymen were one of my favourite bands as a teenager back in the 80s. Still love them. Do Bring on the Dancing Horses!
