    Blitzed-Out 80s Dance Synth-Pop

    Please. I'd like to make a playlist of Eurythmics/a-Ha/Culture Club-style tunes, distinctly 80s in style (throwbacks welcome!).

    Out-of-the-box recs encouraged, though I'd also like to be reminded of tried-and-true favorites.

These oxen couldn't be transported to anywhere else, so we had to built the entire studio around them. A scene that lasted twenty-something seconds took us a year and a half to prepare."

    Sorry about that! I thought the problem had been fixed because youtube videos on forums have been loading super fast, like they used to, for me for the last couple of weeks.

    Maybe not so pertinent to Sven's orginal request, but, my goodness, I do love me some influential 80's electro roots.
