O.A.R. is the same as well, outside of Crazy Game of Poker and maybe one other song, all their stuff sounds the same to me.
Definitely on the list, just not top 5. Queen Annie Lennox Tears for Fears Amy Winehouse Florence + the Machine Duffy Alison Moyet
Someone grew up in the early 80s like me. Throw some Genisis/Phil Collins/Mike and the Mechanics in there and we are well on our way.
Where the hell are the Beastie Boys and Kiss in your list? Oh, wait, is that all British shit from the 80s?
Same age, but i was Nucleus, run dmc, ll cool j, beasties, cameo. Def leppard and Journey . And I wore British Knights,
Like BB, but never got into metal bands. The 80s-90s British shit I get, but I've never been able to get metal. Like nails on a chalkboard to me.
The red/blue or whatever it was came out while i was at UT. We waited at Cats Music for Midnight release, then went to the apartment and got absolutely blitzed.
Hmm. Yes, I do like GNR. Perhaps I was too general in my previous statement. The heavier stuff is what I don't enjoy.
