I changed the theme — thought I wanted to use a montage of 80′s artists on the top of the page, but opted not to. You are now looking at another theme I feel you will like better. I changed the image up top to the super-group U2 because they really defined the 80′s with their album The Joshua Tree. I might use other artists from time to time and change it up a bit.

Speaking of U2, how many of you loved them right from the start? I remember the first time I saw U2 on Mtv. It was the song New Year’s Day off U2′s War album and I was just floored. Guess I have a good eye ear for mega stars. At that moment I knew U2 was going to the top. I might not have voiced it at the time, but I knew Bono and the boys were going places. I also didn’t quite understand the political topics of their songs — I just loved how they sounded. Bono’s voice and the rhythm of the Edge’s guitar brought me in closer.

With that said, I’ll leave you with U2′s New Year’s Day video.

U2 – New Year’s Day (Couldn’t embed the video – sorry…)
