most of the music i listen to from the 80's is early 80's roots reggae, and mid-late 80's r&b
and before i started listening to hip hop via MC hammer, too short, NWA, digital underground and so forth, i listened to synth pop... my sister is 10 years older than me, and she listened to that stuff around me.... i'll still listen to that music if i'm in a nostalgic mood, but my sister will not touch that shit anymore for some reason lol
and i should point out that "close to me" by the cure is one of the greatest songs of all time
