Musical nostalgia is really potent.Pet Shop Boys "back in the day" were never anyone's favourite band but they had hit after hit, and nearly everyone had at least one song they liked.
My favourite was always "West End Girls" but "Always on my Mind" was great too.
Even now, hearing one of their tracks, reminds me of walking into a nightclub and feeling like life's problems were left at the door ;-)
I agree. I know a lot of people denigrate the 80s, but bloody hell it was a great time to be a youngster.Musical nostalgia is really potent.
Loads of 80’s pop songs transport me back to my young years (yeah, pubs when under 18 too).
An amazing form of mental time travel & the PSBs do that too.
Try & steer clear too often though otherwise yuu end up wedded to your past & that’s never a good thing.
It’s just someone else with a vendetta against Tolmie…

I personally had a disaster in the 80’s but the Music and Culture was brilliant and it’s the latter I will hold onto for the rest of my LifeI agree. I know a lot of people denigrate the 80s, but bloody hell it was a great time to be a youngster.
The late 70s music was fantastic, particularly the political activism, and then the 80s. Just a wonderful time (for me, anyway).
