That was great, thanks rightfromwrong!
I liked the silent movie flair to clip and the music is really great!

Lebanon was a good tune also. Much of the music of the 80s suffers from stylistic drum or often drum computer tracks with huge gated reverbs on them (trendy at the time). The sound now is dated and tired. It is primarily what detracts most people from much of the music of the era, which often was; to borrow from Mark Twain..."better than it sounds". I still love Depeche Mode for instance, and they keep putting out good music.

And that was all what this music was about. Getting the chicks on the dance floor. Working in a club that has a dance floor. I laugh at the amount of guys who can not dance. Cause their girlfriends/wives are dancing with other girls.
I tell these guys this is why so many women go to the club without them. They will find a guy that will dance with them. And then they are chit out of luck.

Music from the 80's isn't HALF as cheesy or vapid as the mid 90's to present fascination with boy bands, rap, and plastic re-hashes of "classic" artists.
I'll take the mish-mash of varied operators on the air back then compared to the bleak CleaarChannel landscape of the radio now.
I highly appreciate the work of analog synthesizers and guitars thrown at us then. New Wave was more than just a musical movement.
