Gret music nowadays? have you listen to the radio recently? Comparing the music of today to 1988. Today's music is terrible.

Such great music. Sadly, 4 of the first 5 performers passed on way before their time. Rest in Peace Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Michael Hutchence, and George Harrison.

Alot of hair metal power ballads were huge in '87-90 especially. I think The Flame, Sweet Child Of Mine & Love Bites count, but yeah the majority of pop hits in '88 were dance pop, new jack swing, or adult contemporary.

I remember those songs...and everyone thought he was this big strong guy...and then when everyone saw him...yeah..he can sing..but everybody was surprised.

INXS....what a band...Michael Hutchence...I remember seeing them somewhere years ago...one of the few times I saw women CHEER lol....and I mean....intensely for that guy.

Eerie, first four number ones, the singers are all dead... Whitney, George h, michael j and Michael h. Time sure flies. While not all the songs were my favorite, it was great the diversity exhibited on the charts. I can appreciate all things being subjective but today's top music on the us charts is awful by comparison IMO, no melody, no real singing, autotuned and sampled. Yes I'm aware sampling and sequencing really took hold in the late 80s but you still had to guess the sample lifted to su

Ouch. '88 was a rough year, even by 80's standards. Sorry, but I was relieved when the 90's rolled around and blew this shit right out of the water.

1988!!! my favorite year of music- every song in the top 10 was worth remembering-though 86, 87 and 89 were also way up there!!!! It didnt matter how old you were if it was good it would chart- George michael, guns, madonna, whitney, michael jackson, poison, belinda, def leppard, INXS , Bon Jovi, Van Halen, Peter Cetera, Anita Baker I loved them all- all the legends in a one year- amazing!!!
1986-1989 were the best years in music period!!

It's so sad to think how fast the time went by - never thought the 80s would end. At least "inside" they're still going strong!
Mar 22, 2013 Ryan Hopkins Says:
Again just amazing of the types of music then compared to today. Do the top of the last few years and its way to much of the same stuff.. Im glad i was an 80s teen .. music wise and clothes it was fun and funky and different styles.. Now well you know pretty much no style or god forbid someone show some independent thinking and dress outside the norm
Mar 22, 2013 Ryan Hopkins Says:
I agree with you on all accounts and music was much more diverse in the 80s than today. They all pretty much do the same thing and try to be overly sexual vs being sexy as the peeps did in the 80s..Im an 80s kids and will always love that time..
