Where the 80s Live Forever

80s
Because I'm in the '80s zone now ...

24
Years between the release of Men Without Hats' "Safety Dance" (1982), and the release of their "Live Hats" DVD (2006). If you feel like you missed out on the chance to experience the exuberance, the raw power, and the punctuality of a live Men Without Hats show, well, the time has come to bury those regrets. Here's Safety Dance live. This video is perfectly safe for work, but make sure no small children are in the room -- they might be terrified to see Ivan interpreting his own "Everybody look at your hands" lyrics to mean "Everybody smack yourself in the face."

20
Years between A Flock of Seagulls' I Ran (So Far Away) (1982) and the release of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, with commercials featuring "I Ran." Another wussy 80s song? Nawwwww.

7-0, 275
