I'm updating my Itunes, I'm really bored by all of my old songs, except for some Underworld things, but I really want some new songs.
What are your favorite songs? Preferably music from the 80's! Tell me :sunlight:

I love the eightees songs! I also though am a big fan of Abba and they were late seventies/early eightees. anything by them is uplifting and feel good music. Olivia Newton John is total eightees and the song Magic is very inner being-ish
