We Don't Need Another Hero

becky's world ― I'm not quite sure how I got to Tina Turner's "We Don't Need Another Hero" on YouTube, but it may have been the result of my browsing through Songfacts, looking at titles by year. This song is the theme to the 1985 movie Mad Max: Beyond ...

Live from Daryl's House - The Remedy

becky's world ― So, I was on the plane back from NAMM, listening to an '80s station on Sirius radio, and this one Daryl Hall and John Oates tune came on -- "Adult Education." I hadn't heard the song in ages, and quite frankly, I didn't really know what it was ...

Gypsy

becky's world ― Took me a while to decide on a song this evening. In fact, I was watching all these videos and looking through Songfacts to see what I could find of interest. Clock was ticking, and it was getting later, and later, and so I decided on something...

I Can't Go for That

becky's world ― ∙ Well, once again I have come to a tune with a debatable release date. "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)" by Daryl Hall and John Oates was released in 1982 according to the Songfacts website, but it was on the album Private Eyes, which was...

Rock Me Amadeus

becky's world ― There's some debate as to whether Falco's "Rock Me Amadeus" was released in 1985 or 1986, but I seem to remember it being when I was young, so I'm guessing 1985. Not that there is a big difference, but for me the difference was between age 10 and...

We Didn't Start the Fire

becky's world ― Well, since I wrote about Marconi in my last post, I was inspired to look at another 80s tune with historical names -- lots of historical names. "We Didn't Start the Fire" was written by Billy Joel in 1989, which is much later than I originally...

We Built This City

becky's world ― So, the other night I was listening to Pandora radio on my computer, and "We Built This City" came on. It's not surprising since I listen to "80s Radio" on there 100 percent of the time. I have to say that I believe my perspective has changed ...

Reason to Believe

becky's world ― While scrolling through some Facebook posts today, I discovered that it is Rod Stewart's birthday. Yes -- January 10, 1945. That makes Mr. Stewart 68 years young ;) As cheesy as that may sound, he certainly does seem to have a young spirit and a...

Let's Groove

becky's world ― We're turning the time capsule way back to 1981 with Earth, Wind and Fire's "Let's Groove." I feel a bit conflicted about this one, because it was written in 1981, but it sounds as if it could have been written sometime in the mid to later '70s. ...

Something Happened on the Way to Heaven

Something Happened on the Way to Heaven

becky's world ― I have to admit that I wasn't a huge Phil Collins/Genesis fan in the 80s, but there were a couple of songs that sparked my attention back then. Now that I am older, I can certainly appreciate his music and unyielding talent. He is a true master ...

Armageddon It

Armageddon It

becky's world ― Well, I am long, long overdue for a post here at Becky's World. I took a bit of a hiatus over the holidays and will try to get back into the swing of daily posts. Meanwhile, since we all made it to 2013, I thought it would be the perfect chance ...
