Note the word "group" not band. So I'm not adding my favorite two bands (the bangles and the go-go's) on this.

Quote: I don't see it fair to place any band in the same sentence with groups who just stand there and sing and not play their music. That's why there are no Go-Go's. The Go-Go's are in a totally different league.  Quote: Interesting bit of trivia here on that, I heard an interview of them once where they talked about how they would write a song by humming into a tape recorder.  Whatever works, I guess.  |

You should've titled the thread "Favorite 80's Singing Group" then.
Like you, I'm picky. I don't consider groups who just sing as being a "band". A band plays their own instruments (minus the lead singer... sometimes). |

Melanie, The Go Gos doesn't count, see Banglebabe's explanation.
Ant, I recently got a record player. It's not so expensive anymore. Most audio stores still carry them, but they're not displayed so you have to ask. I got mine for $100 CDN ($75US). |

Could I ask where you bought the record player? My mom has one, but my sister broke the needle in her "terrible 2" stage...my mom has so many records I'd love to be able to hear that I can't find in stores.

GT, you could ask Future Shop. They usually have one lying around. I got mine at Audio and Video 2001 (is that the name of the store? Anyway, you probably know what I mean). Otherwise, try Best Buy.

Sadly I declined to vote on this one. I didn't particularly care for any of them! LOL (Debbie Gibson wrote her own music, and I think she ever played piano and/or guitar, but she didn't have a band. Still, I thought she was pretty kewl.)
