Is there any music from 1980-1982 that could still pass as "current" sounding?

I think you can start in the middle.\nfirst listen to " GOO " then get into the earlier recordings and you can even skip the rest!\nha ha ha, just kidding, they are still good nowadays.

It depends on how "old school" you are talking.  I know there's a great track by the artist "TQ" that is entitled "Paradise."  That was around 1999 / 2000 I think, but I could be wrong.  Even if it's not what you're looking for, it may be worth checking out.

Usually 60's and 70's mellow stuff or Beatles and Van Morrison type stuff.\n\nOn the way home....AC/DC and hard rock!

Yeah, I ordered a set of 70s music, a long time ago. Nothing since, though. It was a great set of music, too!

I'm just like you, but I'm 17. Rap??? They call that "music"??? And talent??? It's talking in rhymes! I think music back in the 60's and 70's was the best ... it actually ment something! Like The Beatles. Brilliantly composed and sometimes floaty. I love that. Ever herd "Revolution #9"? Now that's weird, but I still like it. Led Zeppelin is my fav. Brilliant, talented music with a meaning. Sounds cool too. But yeah, I agree with you 100 and 10% on that. Imagine what modern music will sound like 10 years from now! That's a scary thought!

I really enjoy jamming to 80's tunes and remixes. If you are into remixes my favorites are Funkymix, Ultimix, and X-Mix compilation cds (you must be a professional DJ to purchase them). As far as the 80's go I just loved all the music that came outta the whole decade.
