80s Music And Movies
Totally 80's

I love listening and watching old movies and such back in the 80s! There are so many songs and movies from that time!! So let's beat it, just beat it. Here are some favorites such as eye of a tiger, and so much more. Most of these songs are the ones that mostly everyone knows and knows the lyrics to most of these songs which is awesome! So lets dance all the way out of the ballpark or make it easy to follow along with the rest of the song! Keep track of the beat and go all the way out on the song and make it better for everyone else to follow along There are probably some of them you may have heard of but the rest you may have known from the radio or on television! Since tomorrow through Sunday is a show called Footloose that I am helping out with! The 80s had some wonderful things during the works of the time frame. Some people know some of these songs but others may not know these songs but who knows. I decided to do something with the 80s this week and next week! Some of these songs and movies are some of my favorites and watched a lot too! Especially put those dancing shoes on and cut loose from one of the songs footloose!! It is awesome and many people will like this as much as I do!! There are so many fun songs during this part of the song! I hope everyone likes my article for this week! Here are the top movies and songs from the 80s:

1. Footloose took place in the 80s in 1984 which was moving from Chicago, a newcomer Ren McCormmick is in shock where he discovers the same Midwestern town he now calls home has made dancing/rock basic illegal. It is hard for Ren to fit in. He faces an uphill battle to change things. The help of his new friend, Willard Hewitt and defiant teen Ariel more he might loosen up this conservative town a bit.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
