Re: My Favorite Songs From 1983

 Good picks, all those were favorites of mine that year as well. I was heavy into the Police, Culture Club and Michael Jackson that year. Diana Ross as well, I attended her Central Park concert she had here in NY that summer. 1983 was the year I became a Prince fan after years of not paying attention to him. Little Red Corvette and Delirious were favorites, as well as:Love Is A Battlefield--Pat Benatar She Works Hard For The Money--Donna Summer Maniac--Michael Sembello I'm sure there's other that'll pop into my head later... |

True but technically speaking, Thriller was the title track from an album released in 1982, so it's possible BrooklynGuy78 listened to that song throughout 1983. |

The 1982-83 school year was probably the greatest year (to me) for music.....as far as my lifes soundtrack goes. The new British Invasion was a great shot in the arm.
