'Til Tuesday
The 'Til Tuesdays' were an American new-wave band that began in the early 1980s. Fronted by Aimee Mann, the band's songs featured catchy choruses and new wave influences. They were silent after 1985, but re-emerged in 1990. "Til Tuesday" was #6 on 2016's 'Best Of' 80s Albums List.
Talking Heads
The group made an impressive start to the 1980s, with a string of hits that included "More Than You Know" and "Drug Trip." The album is still their most-sold studio record and it marked the beginning of a more youthful lineup. This album also inspired a worldwide tour. "Drug Trip" tells the story of a drug trip. It features a fun bass line and semi-funky beat. The song is a fantastic choice for music lovers as it's a sweet love ballad that showcases the band's best work.
Journey
They had a great start to their careers, reaching the top 20 in 1979 with their first single. Their popularity soared in the early 1980s, when Escape became the number one album. Despite their success, the band was quiet for a couple years after the album, and their former members Steve Perry and Ross Valory went on to work on solo projects. Their biggest hit was Raised on the Radio. The band went on hiatus for almost a decade from 1987 to 1995.
Dead Kennedys
The band was well-known in the UK by the end of the 1970s and the beginning of the 1980s. This popularity resulted in moderate commercial success. The band was offered a record deal by Polydor in 1981. Biafra declined to sign the deal and threatened to quit the group if they did not. The band was without their key member and they were criticised for changing their anti-corporate values. Despite their controversy, the band continues to perform live.
