You guys know the way to my heart.

Let's break it down 1982 style!

*I love watching videos from 1980-82. They weren't quite sure what to do with the new concept of the music video yet.

*All in all, this was a fun year for music. Not a lot of classics in there, but 4-5 songs you never turn off when they come up on the radio.

"Centerfold", "I love Rock and Roll", "Jack and Diane", all fit that category.

*Part of the appeal of 80's music is those cheesy songs you love to sing along with that bring a smile to your face. "Mickey", "Who can it be now?" and "Don't you want me baby" all fit that category.

*"Eye of the Tiger!" Come on, classic!

*Because it's in your head now..."don't you want me..OHHHH!!!"

*Hall and Oates had two # 1 hits? Every year has questionable choices.

*"Ebony and Ivory" was # 1 for 7 freaking weeks? Really?

*Abracadabra? Wow...Steve Miller Band. Wow. Awful.

*Chariots of Fire. Greatest.Slow.Motion.Song.Ever
