Good Friends and 80's Music!

This morning, one of my best friends (V) and her husband (D) continued on their journey from La Crosse, WI, to Chicago.  They stayed two nights with us, and it was such a wonderful visit --lots of great conversation, laughter, wine, cheese, and chocolate.

Last night, V started talking about 80's music, and this led to a discussion of the term androgynous. Since Emma had never heard of the term, we had to illustrate it with some music videos, and we ended up in such a fun journey back in time!  We gathered around a laptop and introduced Emma to all our great 80's memories, starting with this video:


Next was this one:


We went through the Eurythmics, the Pet Shop Boys, and one of my favorites:


Is that not one of the best videos ever?  Look at those shorts!!! Of course, by this time we had moved away from androgynous, and just into memories.  We ended with this next video, a song that Emma already knows very well:


A good time was had by all, even Emma :-)

  1. Oh my gosh, LOVE those videos. I just redid my running mix and added "Church of the Poison Mind" by Culture Club to my mix.
