Waking Up 80s
"Bizarre Love Triangle" - New Order
I didn't just wake up with this song in my head. This actually had context in a dream (or one that I actually remember the context of):
-
I was listening to headphones at work and took my headphones off to hear this playing from my co-worker's speakers. I said something about the bass line being great.
-
And, it's one of the few 'wakingup80s' songs that I actually like.
And it's one of their best videos, directed by artist Robert Longo. The interlude at 2:40 made such an impact on me, it became part of my lead-in on my Senior Will in high school. Also worth noting, during the last part of the video, the entire video replays rapidly in the bottom bar.

Waking Up 80s - "Perfect" - Fairground Attraction
Since past posts in Twitter seem to be indefinitely on the blink, I am going to keep track of my Waking Up 80s songs here.
FYI, I've been waking up with random 80s songs in my head since I've moved back to Minnesota. I'd say 13 out of 14 days I have one. Many I forget as soon as I get out of bed and almost all of them are songs I really don't even care for.
Such as:
"Easy Lover" Philip Bailey and Phil Collins
(Grody)
"Christine" - Siouxsie & the Banshees
(One of the few tubular ones)
"I Heard A Rumor" - Bananarama
(I am sure this band make a significant impact on my adolescent, male brain)
"Private Dancer" - Tina Turner
(This has shown up a few times)
"Goodbye To You" - Scandal
"The Living Years" - Mike & The Mechanics
(Had to Google lyrics on this one)
"The Final Countdown" - Europe
"Like a Virgin" - Madonna
"What have I done to deserve this?" - Pet Shop Boys
(That's a deep well if we want to get all psychoanalytical-ey)
"When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Going" - Billy Ocean
(Ya, from Romancing the Stone Part II)
"Smooth Criminal" - Michael Jackson
"True Blue" - Madonna
(Horrible way to start the day)
"And We Danced" - The Hooters
"Running Up That Hill" - Kate Bush
"Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman?" -Bryan Adams
"We Built This City" - Starship
(This has shown up a few times)
This goes on back past mid-December, but all I was willing to rearchive. What the hell though? I've never heard of anything like waking up consistently with a certain era of music in your head...
