Wartime Music: What did you listen to?

[Matt Wiser]

Might as well start a new thread for this: what music did you listen to during the war-and is that still on your playlist?

I had a pretty decent playlist, and in no particular order:

Stevie Nicks had three on mine: Stand Back, If Anyone Falls, and Talk to Me.

Katrina and the Waves: Rockin' on Sunshine and We Gotta Get out of this Place,

Belinda Carlisle: Heaven is a Place on Earth, I Feel Free, Feel the Magic, I Get Weak,

Kim Carnes: Bette Davis Eyes, and Nobody Knows (From the Vanishing Point soundtrack)

Kenny Rogers: The Gambler, and Islands in the Stream (with Dolly Parton)

Kenny Loggins: Danger Zone (yeah, Top Gun wasn't released until 1989, but...)

Eddie Money/Ronnie Spector: Take Me Home Tonight

Slade: Run Run Runaway

Pink Floyd: Another Brick in the Wall

Olivia Newton-John: Magic, Physical,Soul Kiss, Twist of Fate

ELO: Don't Bring Me Down

Murray Head: One Night in Bangkok

Bananarama: Cruel Summer

Pointer Sisters: Jump (For my Love)

Soft Cell: Tainted Love

Cutting Crew: If I Died in Your Arms Tonight

Huey Lewis and the News: Heart of Rock and Roll

Bob Seeger and the Silver Bullet Band: Old Time Rock and Roll

And that's just the start!
