la bionda record

This obscure video from the brothers La Bionda has some sexy animation reminiscent of the movie Heavy Metal.
Angelo La Bionda and Carmelo La Bionda released their first 12″ single in 1977 and had a number of hits into the 80’s. The two brothers have been active since 1970 as composers, artists, producers and publishers. Under the name DD Sound they were among the main producers of Italian disco music of the seventies. Their dance singles have made many appearances on compilations up to this day.

Since 1982 the brothers have focused on composition and music production including soundtracks for film and television and advertising jingles. In 1983 they began a successful and fruitful collaboration with Righeira also writing with them Vamos a la playa and No Tengo Dinero hit success. They founded, and continue to manage Logic Recording Studios in Milan.

You’re The Best

This song dig deep in to 80s psychology and what it is like to be the best, basically nothing is ever gonna keep you down just like the Karate Kid. Say for example it is 1984 and you are an Itallian kid from Jersey with kick ass martial arts skills who is tired of being pushed around. This song explains what its like to be a simple kid like him who takes on his enemies at the local martial arts championships and gives them some Mr Miagi up their ass. Check out this inspiring video and then go do some laps. I really identified with this song from Joe Esposito because Im the best!

Classic 1980s sci-fi movie with a message that is still pertinent.
More alien and ufo movie available on SIGH7INGS.

Part science fiction thriller and part black comedy, the plot posits a world in which some of the monied elite are actually aliens oppressing the poverty-stricken lower classes through subliminal media advertising.

80s Board Game - Go For It!

by 80s Kids, at 2:45 pm
Category: 80s Fun & Games : Eighties Articles

clipped from www.squidoo.com

This forgotten board game sums up 80s Western culture in single image. You’ve got airbrushed silk workout shorts, leg warmers, sweatbands, suburban mansions, wind surfing, solid gold singing, Ferrari driving, tennis playing, executives behind the desk, lush green lawns, and a little bit of Europe just to make things feel a little international. For me this evokes Wimbledon, John McEnroe, Olivia Newton-John getting physical, the Surfing fashion craze, Princess Dianna, hardly working at the office, Magnum P.I., and Life Styles of the Rich and Famous all rolled up into one awesome piece of cover art.
