Do you wish the world looked like it did in the 80s?

I do

You'll pardon this old mans intrusion, but i suspect that's because you didn't have to live through it !!

Constant cock ups with economy; lots of folk out of work; many folk disaffected; many long standing businesses closed; foreclosures at an all time high; strikes; .....
the 80's gave us the death of long standing industries and the birth of the ones you use today.
But it certainly wasn't a good time for many of us who went from school leaving age to parenthood in that time.

Surely there is some nostalgia in there for the eighties scene though

@Jackaloftheazuresand Nostalgia serves no purpose other than to make you think hardship wasn't as bad as it really was.
oh sure, we had the same stuff every generation has in terms of musical trends. Punk; New Wave; New Romantic; Two-Tone; Ska revival etc.Blade Runner; Dirty Dancing; Raiders of the lost ark; Ghostbusters; Scarface; E:T; Star Wars 2(these days referred to as episode 6 ?)
