Those were some good ones.

I always dug those tunes. Why do you wish you were into them before now?

Wow, hard to believe that 20 years ago, the 80's were ENDING.

That's an eclectic mix. I was digging these tunes at that time, if memory serves.

Wish U Heaven -- Prince
Black Steel In The Hour of Chaos -- Public Enemy
Girl I'll House You -- The Jungle Brothers
Bob George -- Prince (after I'd finally found my musical Holy Grail, The Black Album)
Ain't No Half Steppin' -- Big Daddy Kane

and many more . . .

Dinosaur
Wishing Well-Terence Trent D'arby
Buffalo Stance
Iko Iko

some song called Holiday (not madonna's song nor it's remix)


I discovered 1989 songs from Madonna, Janet, Paula, Karyn, Jody a few years later though

Here is a list of some of my favorite songs from 20 years ago.
