Me thinks it had, & has to do with CCTV. There wasn't much in the way of materialism, and money. Was at a happy medium. Anyway that's my bit on the 80's.
The reason why the 80s were so pure, clean and sincere was that it was the beginning of the technological revolution and people had not yet been soulless by technology.
80's was magic and I agree. Only thing to worry about back then was a cold war but there was allot of peace everywhere except Africa. Now everything is falling apart.
Born in the 70's so lucky to have my teenage years in the 80's. A really exciting time to grow up. So much change with music and fashion. Having to meet people to socialise. Everything seemed exciting and colourful.
Born in 1970, childhood in the 70s, teenage years in the 80s, college and clubs in the 90s. First thing I'm going thank God for giving me. The time period I was born... it was perfect.

I was born in '82 and although it was the first 8 years of my life,..it's sometimes difficult to relate strongly with the decade. The 90s was the decade that I came into my own. 3rd grade all the way to Freshman year of college. The 80s impact is most probably on a subconscious level and will impact me from early childhood forever.
I miss leg warmers under miniskirts, big hair, and skintight Jordache jeans. I even find myself thinking nostalgically about those godawful rabbit fur jackets.
Born exactly in 1980, for me this was the best decade of all. Our generation has seen a little of everything. We saw everything from Atari to PS5, from vinyl records to Spotify, from floppy disks to cloud files, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the rise of the internet, the birth of smartphones. The younger ones will forgive me, but we in the 70s, 80s and 90s saw the best transformations in the world.

Im also a 75 child. We got a tiny taste of the 70s but clearly lived all of the 80s. The only thing I regret is that I was naive enough to believe life would just keep getting better (or wed perish in a nuke war). Wish I could get a replay of my life sometimes.

Im glad i was born in '64, and was a teen in the 80s. It was our time, and the best time. We all got along no matter who we were or where we came from, or what we listened to, we were just us.
@@GalacticDrive It was alot better in the 80s. Like i said most everyone where i lived got along in school. We all treated us like family. I guess thats what i loved about the town i lived in, and the school i went to.
I was born in 1971. Music from the 1980s can be divided into early 80s and later 80s. Later 80s was much more like pop music; the early 80s was the classic synthwave sound. This video truly captures the synthesizer-driven music of the early 80s that was so magical and different from the 1970s-era music that preceded it. Synthwave reflected the spirit of the 1980s: technology and forward-looking optimism.
I'm 43, grew up in the 80's and 90's, obviously. This is such a great mix. Not over the top like other's try, who don't understand the mystique of 80's tunes.
And I'm 43 also. Age 10 & younger was the best time of my life. And I get depressed when I think I'll never have that again. Thanks to creators like this, we can remember. I drive in my car and meditate to this type of stuff. I just think about how life was.
I work an office job downtown where I live - let me tell you this is a complete vibe for being productive, positive energy and just completely enjoying yourself. Happy Monday!
Definitely brings back the fun memories of the 1980s - arcade tokens, wandering the woods and drainage tunnels till nightfall with your friends, rotary phones to call your folks, and Saturday morning cartoons!
The 1980's wasn't just a decade. It's a state of mind, a different level of consciousness that anyone can achieve regardless of when they were born. You just have to understand the art- the music, movies, clothing, etc. And see where it came from and why.
You took the words right from my soul. Was in my 20's then. And yes. There was a vibe, a zeitgeist the like which I have never experienced before or ever since.
I'm just glad I realized in the 80's that it was a special decade while it was happening. I'm genuinely sad for people who didn't get to live during that time.
I became an adult in 1990 so some of the best years of my childhood and all my teen years were in the 1980s. I miss those times a lot, the people, my family, my home, those old places that don't exist anymore, and the pop culture and prosperity and optimism that made that decade so awesome. Life is still good now but I'll always miss those days. Then again, as an adult, I can choose to relive a lot of the 1980s - and I get to make it so that it's only the good parts! Thank you so much for this awesome music that takes me back there again ...
84, 85, 86 were simply peak happiness for me… born in 73… films and music were awesome. My kids love all the music and films too… still loving it today😅
Was 4 to 13 I miss those days. 90's were good but it wasn't the 80's. You were at the perfect age for the 80's. Would have loved to spend my high school years at the end of the 80's but those were the early to mid 90's for me.
80's music is absolutely timeless! The unique blend of synths, unforgettable melodies, and infectious beats makes it stand out as one of the greatest musical eras. Every song has a distinctive energy that still resonates today, capturing the essence of fun, emotion, and pure creativity. 🎶✨
Gonna be the ancient one here: born in 1960, the 80's were so wide open alive, music could be chill & not frantic and so could we.....it was the best time to be young & fearless. Thx for your mix--it's like a shot of Everclear to my soul 💙
That's great to hear! Happy the music brings back some good ole memories. It's the aim of the channel 😃 Thanks for taking the time to comment. I appreciate it!
I'm often reminded of this quote from the movie Strange Days. "Wanna know how I know it's the end of the world? Because nothing is new, we've already done everything." What we need is a new frontier of some kind.
Pre-ancient then. Born 1957. LOL. I remember when we all thought the synthesizer music was so cool. It was a new thing. Still cool when done right. We are lucky to have experienced so many decades and genres of music first hand.
Hey Bluesioux I was born in July 61. I spent the 80s from 19-29yrs old spent ENTIRE 80s while in Army. What a great time for our music. I like the fact that 60s and 70s music was still popular also. ANY TIME I hear 80s music I get nostalgic and want to go back if only for the music. GREAT BANDS GREAT MUSIC AND LIFE DIDNT SEEM TO BE FALLING APART, the sky was the limit. I would go back in a minute if I could. Your not the only ancient that misses that time period. MAN HOW I MISS THE 80s
If life feels too complicated right now, let this music simplify things, even if just for a moment. It’s the little things that matter. 🎶🌱 Leave a 🌱 if you find solace here!
Born in 86 gen x was my siblings time but learned a lot about that time bout music. Have vivid memories of my sister aqua netting the shit out that hair “them bangs are able to hang picture frames “ lol miss that so much. Now we barely talk I hope she’s doing ok.
Born in 1978, a child of the 80's, a rebel (teen years) in the 90's. As I remember most of the 90's on a more conscious level, it is the 80's that has made an impact to me. Whenever I hear 80's music, it automatically takes me back into a "non-specific memory" but more of like a "feeling" of bitter-sweet childhood emotions where everything was pure, simple and happy. 80's will always be the best, where everyone was awesome and cool. 80's will always have an unbreakable bond in my heart until my dying days. Music like these, it's transcendental. You're a genius man! Thanks for this.
I reported for Basic Training and AIT at Fort Benning, Georgia on June 6 1980. That was the decade that decided we had missed an entire 2 cycles of development in arms and armor, and damn didn't they give us the best - the M1 Abrams, Kevlar Helmets and body armor, the M16A2 rifle, the M204 SAW, the Bradley AFV...all to the score of DEVO, Flock of Seagulls, Nena (99 Luftbalons) Prince, Blondie, Sugar Hill Gang...cyberpunk before it was cyberpunk. Loved it.
Ah the 80s when you came home from school, got changed and went straight back again. Nobody knew where we were and we always went back home when we were hungry.
Yeah, no mobile phones, no social media. When you had real actual physical friends you hung around with all the time round someone's house. - and yeah the irony that we're listening to this via social media is not lost. Back in the day I'd have simply given you a tape to copy ;-)
Rad tunes man! Born in '80 so my childhood rocked. BMX with the boys, pinecone fights in woods, going to the mall, action movies and amazing music. Still have my Dukes of Hazard lunchbox and the thermos still smells like Spaghettios. No-one had a stupid cell phone and you looked up information in books like a real person. Gas was 97 cents and obesity wasn't a 'disease' yet. Damn....now I'm sad.
I was born in 87, I love the 80s sound, Although I am a 90s baby. I think we were the last people from that decade to grow up the way kids should. Young, wild and Free. Today's children are in a captive prison from their parents who try to keep them too safe and the other prisons is social media. I'm so glad that the new generation is getting hit with 80s sound and loving it. I see it and hear it everywhere. ( Stranger things.. movies)
Born in 1971 (January) and teenager in the great 80s. Oh Lord, I confirm that we'd really need to go back to that era ! It was full of creativity, and we had so much freedom (of thoughts and speech) compared to nowadays. We had just enough technologies to make our days easier, but not enough to enslave us. Life was not perfect of course, but it was more rad, "chillier", and somewhat brighter, like subdued light of coloured neons. 🌆
I think the 80's will be marked down in history as the best or golden years of humans existence, I'm so glad I was part of it. The years may keep on climbing but the 80's music will keep on playing till time it self doesn't exist, this is eternity.
I was born in 1968 and I can tell you "what was good about this music at that time" and still hear it today makes me extremely happy. When I saw the movie "drive" and also the credits of Stranger Things, I had this little smile. Thank you for these sounds -I love the first track.
And remember kids, to listen to these kinds of mixes with headphones that have a headband worn over the head, with each phone on / over the ears. Best sound and experience ever ❤.
I miss the 80s and I wasn’t born until 1990, wish I could have born earlier to experience the 80s fully. Everything now is just so….. broken….. the 80s seemed….. perfect 😢
Born in mid-70s. Glad I was able to hear this genre in its infancy and its expansion toward the mainstream. Current synth technology does the old sounds right.
This sound and this image define the difference between growing up in the 80’s and being born in the 80’s. A lot of us born in the 80’s lay a massive claim on the decade instead of admitting that we grew up in the 90’s and 2000’s when things stopped being so simple. Really wish I had been a teen in the 80’s instead.
I was born in 77,, so my best child hood memories are all in the 80’s then the 90s hit and Gang banging and drugs took over my life growing up in East Oakland,, now I’m 46 living my best life sober serving God and living in Texas.
Born in 77 as well and I've been in love with Jesus since I was 5 years old. Welcome to Texas, really wish California was what it was 30 to 40 years ago.
Why do I have 80s nostalgia if I wasn't born in the 80s 😮💨I feel like the 80s and 90s were the last time people were allowed to live and enjoy the outdoors. I listen to this and remember stuff that I never did its so weird.
Born in 78. I miss the 80s up until 1995. Best time of my life. Wish i could go back. 😢. Thanks for this lovely nostalgic music, brings back sweet memories. Subbed.
80's was my best time of life. I am so glad I managed to live that at that age. I miss my pals, my cars, my girls, those endless summers, night clubs, music, fashion, you name it.
The world I was born in does not exist anymore. What a time to be alive, and what a time to reflect on. There was a sense of innocence, of not knowing what the world would become. Analog was the world, and it was simple.
Born 73' The 80's rocked! so glad I made that generation. We were taught to be self-sufficient. Some of us were neglected, but not un-loved... just left to ourselves, (which I actually loved); so many good times and memories. Music was a HUGE part of our lives, probably because it wasn't instant, at least not until CD's. All the tapes I owned had been bought at least 2X minimum. Soundtracks were a big deal back then, this playlist is a memory pill of sorts, thanks for sharing! When my kids hear me talk about high school, they just can't relate, at all. They don't get that talking, storytelling and hanging out was the norm. Most kids have a hard time communicating, but they can all text. I'm so thankful youtube and cell-phones were not around back then, even though I use each a lot today.
Thanks so much for the support M. L.🙂I’ve been very fortunate that my channel has been received super well. Ironically, I was only just accepted into the TH-cam partner program around 10 days ago, but then immediately removed. TH-cam deemed my channel as “reused content” that “does not offer any value to viewers”. I feel this claim is 100% incorrect and false! I’ve asked for examples, and they won’t tell me, which is just crazy. I also asked how could a human from TH-cam initially review my channel and accept me and my content into the program, but then an automated bot remove me? Again they won't answer! So I’m now reaching out to my supporters and subscribers for help. If you can spare a few minutes, it would mean the world to me if you could reach out to TH-cam via any social media handle you have. On Twitter, you can tweet them @TeamTH-cam. On Instagram you can message them on their page TH-cam, on Facebook you can find their page as TH-cam. If you could please reach out to them in any way, mention my TH-cam handle "GalacticDrive" and tell them how you as a TH-cam supporter find value in my content and that my removal from the TH-cam partner program should be reversed immediately. I’m hoping if I can get enough support from my subscribers then TH-cam will listen and agree that my content does offer value to you😄 Thanks so much for your help! 🙏🏼
Born in 1984 and have such a strong connection to this music. Thank you so much for putting this together. I simply cannot stop listening to it! And the artwork...Its hypnotic.
I can't get enough of this awesome music! It’s perfectly in sync with the visuals, creating an engaging and immersive experience that draws you in from the very beginning. Each track is thoughtfully chosen, adding to the overall atmosphere and making the video even more enjoyable. The soundtrack is an excellent choice and truly enhances the video, showcasing the creator's exceptional taste in music.
@GalacticDrive hey thank you for the like. gotta say I'm really enjoying your synthwave 80's stuff. If you like good speakers. The polk signature elite series is really good. I have a yamaha stereo amp it's Also old school new tech very reminiscent of old style class d amps and sounds great with plenty of punch yo drive any speaker. If you wondering about the sub. It's amazing don't wait get it. Is their better yes also more.
Born in 1969. Lucky enough to have lived every second of my youth in the 80's. It's not hyperbole to say that in America the 80's were pure magic. The nexus of technology, booming economy, pop culture and good-natured patriotism were a once in a lifetime event.
Even though I was born in 1989, I still feel like I have some sort of spiritual connection with this magical decade. I'm just so drawn to every good thing that the 80's had despite not really getting to experience said decade physically. Thank you for putting this out.
Well, the general feeling of the 80s bled well into the 90s. They were both distinct, but the spirit was similar. Stark contrast between them and the 2000s-present. You're the same age as my little brother, and he's through and through an 80s/90s kid.
Track 7 is one of the most heavenly, reflective and resonating tunes I have ever heard. What a wonderful creation. Thankyou!. Born 1985, but wishing I was born 1965 to have heard all 80s music live at the time!
I'm 33, grew up in the 90's and early 2000's, obviously. But such a soothing Feeling of Nostalgia and Greatness of a positive, humanistic 80's Spirit+Vibe always overcomes me with such Music. As If i have been alive a little earlier already!
@@SludgeMan90 Hope the same for you Buddy. At around 30 i turned around everything, it is still work in progress. I enjoy this Music very much sometimes when i am alone, working at Home.

How do you think the 80s compares to today?
@@GalacticDrive It was alot better in the 80s. Like i said most everyone where i lived got along in school. We all treated us like family. I guess thats what i loved about the town i lived in, and the school i went to.
I was born in 1971. Music from the 1980s can be divided into early 80s and later 80s. Later 80s was much more like pop music; the early 80s was the classic synthwave sound. This video truly captures the synthesizer-driven music of the early 80s that was so magical and different from the 1970s-era music that preceded it. Synthwave reflected the spirit of the 1980s: technology and forward-looking optimism.
Thanks Mark! Appreciate that😊
thx 4 the insight brother
Well said. 🙃
Synthwave actually started in the 2000's, but it is inspired by synth pioneers of the late70's- early 80's
i'm sorry...when that first song started...just holding back a tear...of happiness...
Wow!🙏🏼😊 Thanks!!
I'm 43, grew up in the 80's and 90's, obviously. This is such a great mix. Not over the top like other's try, who don't understand the mystique of 80's tunes.
Thanks Ed😃
Truth. ❤
Summed it up nicely!
genauso seh ich das auch , die 80+90 er haben einen ganz besonderen flow
And I'm 43 also. Age 10 & younger was the best time of my life. And I get depressed when I think I'll never have that again.
Thanks to creators like this, we can remember.
I drive in my car and meditate to this type of stuff.
I just think about how life was.
I work an office job downtown where I live - let me tell you this is a complete vibe for being productive, positive energy and just completely enjoying yourself. Happy Monday!
That’s awesome Taylor! Happy it keeps you moving throughout the day!😊
The 80s stand out as a remarkable decade in human history, marked by an explosion of creativity, innovation, and cultural significance.
Definitely brings back the fun memories of the 1980s - arcade tokens, wandering the woods and drainage tunnels till nightfall with your friends, rotary phones to call your folks, and Saturday morning cartoons!
Saturday morning cartoons were my favourite!!!😊

Came for the artwork, stayed for the music! 👾
Me too... :D

1971 and still love my 80s
The 1980's wasn't just a decade. It's a state of mind, a different level of consciousness that anyone can achieve regardless of when they were born. You just have to understand the art- the music, movies, clothing, etc. And see where it came from and why.
You took the words right from my soul. Was in my 20's then. And yes. There was a vibe, a zeitgeist the like which I have never experienced before or ever since.
sure... but there also has been much shit in the 80s ;)
@@CXSGroupie i guess it's all in what you decide to take away from it.
I'm just glad I realized in the 80's that it was a special decade while it was happening. I'm genuinely sad for people who didn't get to live during that time.
I became an adult in 1990 so some of the best years of my childhood and all my teen years were in the 1980s. I miss those times a lot, the people, my family, my home, those old places that don't exist anymore, and the pop culture and prosperity and optimism that made that decade so awesome. Life is still good now but I'll always miss those days. Then again, as an adult, I can choose to relive a lot of the 1980s - and I get to make it so that it's only the good parts! Thank you so much for this awesome music that takes me back there again ...
Hey Bionic Bigfoot, similar experience for me. Synthwave let's us experience that time again. 🎶😀🎉
I wasn't even alive then, but I also wanna go back.
Nice friend! Happy it brings back good memories😊
Seriously, what is it going to take to go back to that time? What do I need to do? (listens to this awesome synthwave) Ah, there we go ;)
GTA Vice City Vibes oh Nostalgia ❤❤
love the screen. Arcade video game in 80'...I miss these days...
What was your favourite game?😃
84, 85, 86 were simply peak happiness for me… born in 73… films and music were awesome. My kids love all the music and films too… still loving it today😅
Im 40, This music is magical and back me to amazing 80s, and I am very grateful for that
Happy it takes you back to better times😊
Damn man, I’d give anything to relive the 80s. Age 7 to 17. What a blast.
Couldn't agree more man!
Was 4 to 13 I miss those days. 90's were good but it wasn't the 80's. You were at the perfect age for the 80's. Would have loved to spend my high school years at the end of the 80's but those were the early to mid 90's for me.

@@GalacticDrive Hey you made the amazing music. I just listened and wrote down what came to mind for most of the songs lol
track 14 ? U_U
Not all heros wear capes ❤
Thank you so much
80's music is absolutely timeless! The unique blend of synths, unforgettable melodies, and infectious beats makes it stand out as one of the greatest musical eras. Every song has a distinctive energy that still resonates today, capturing the essence of fun, emotion, and pure creativity. 🎶✨
Gonna be the ancient one here: born in 1960, the 80's were so wide open alive, music could be chill & not frantic and so could we.....it was the best time to be young & fearless. Thx for your mix--it's like a shot of Everclear to my soul 💙
That's great to hear! Happy the music brings back some good ole memories. It's the aim of the channel 😃 Thanks for taking the time to comment. I appreciate it!
I'm often reminded of this quote from the movie Strange Days. "Wanna know how I know it's the end of the world? Because nothing is new, we've already done everything." What we need is a new frontier of some kind.
Pre-ancient then. Born 1957. LOL. I remember when we all thought the synthesizer music was so cool. It was a new thing. Still cool when done right. We are lucky to have experienced so many decades and genres of music first hand.
I'm 9 years behind you but absolutely concur with your sentiment.
Hey Bluesioux I was born in July 61. I spent the 80s from 19-29yrs old spent ENTIRE 80s while in Army. What a great time for our music. I like the fact that 60s and 70s music was still popular also.
ANY TIME I hear 80s music I get nostalgic and want to go back if only for the music. GREAT BANDS GREAT MUSIC AND LIFE DIDNT SEEM TO BE FALLING APART, the sky was the limit. I would go back in a minute if I could. Your not the only ancient that misses that time period.
MAN HOW I MISS THE 80s
If life feels too complicated right now, let this music simplify things, even if just for a moment. It’s the little things that matter. 🎶🌱 Leave a 🌱 if you find solace here!
❤👍🕊️🕯️🙏🪽🫂👋🌱🌴🍃🪴🌲🌲🌵🌿☘️thank you, God bless you all, enjoy, peace, hope, serenity, healing, haven, new starts, destiny
✊🏿😎 best Time. Miss the 80's
True!😊
@@GalacticDrive 👍
But there were no smart electronic gadgets then
Born in 86 gen x was my siblings time but learned a lot about that time bout music. Have vivid memories of my sister aqua netting the shit out that hair “them bangs are able to hang picture frames “ lol miss that so much. Now we barely talk I hope she’s doing ok.

track 7 ♥♥♥
Born in 1978, a child of the 80's, a rebel (teen years) in the 90's. As I remember most of the 90's on a more conscious level, it is the 80's that has made an impact to me. Whenever I hear 80's music, it automatically takes me back into a "non-specific memory" but more of like a "feeling" of bitter-sweet childhood emotions where everything was pure, simple and happy. 80's will always be the best, where everyone was awesome and cool. 80's will always have an unbreakable bond in my heart until my dying days. Music like these, it's transcendental. You're a genius man! Thanks for this.
I reported for Basic Training and AIT at Fort Benning, Georgia on June 6 1980. That was the decade that decided we had missed an entire 2 cycles of development in arms and armor, and damn didn't they give us the best - the M1 Abrams, Kevlar Helmets and body armor, the M16A2 rifle, the M204 SAW, the Bradley AFV...all to the score of DEVO, Flock of Seagulls, Nena (99 Luftbalons) Prince, Blondie, Sugar Hill Gang...cyberpunk before it was cyberpunk.
Loved it.
Happy it takes you back! And thanks for the support and motivation! I've got a new video coming out in a few days, hope you'll like it!😃
@@GalacticDrive will wait for it 😊❤️ thanks! This is a time machine you got here. More power to you!
1971 here, listening to this and reading comments feels great.
Ah the 80s when you came home from school, got changed and went straight back again. Nobody knew where we were and we always went back home when we were hungry.
Yeah, no mobile phones, no social media. When you had real actual physical friends you hung around with all the time round someone's house.
- and yeah the irony that we're listening to this via social media is not lost. Back in the day I'd have simply given you a tape to copy ;-)
I fell deeply in love already after the first ten seconds of the first song! Heavenly!
@@Lexthebarbarian aw thank you!🙂
Rad tunes man! Born in '80 so my childhood rocked. BMX with the boys, pinecone fights in woods, going to the mall, action movies and amazing music. Still have my Dukes of Hazard lunchbox and the thermos still smells like Spaghettios. No-one had a stupid cell phone and you looked up information in books like a real person. Gas was 97 cents and obesity wasn't a 'disease' yet. Damn....now I'm sad.
Thanks mate! Happy you’re digging em’! More to come for you soon! Check out my barbie and ken video in the mean time. I think you’ll enjoy the tracks😃
Im born in 1981, 80´s The best decade, best music, incomparables escences, the best rememberances!!
Gone but never forgotten... the 80s
I was born in 87, I love the 80s sound, Although I am a 90s baby. I think we were the last people from that decade to grow up the way kids should. Young, wild and Free. Today's children are in a captive prison from their parents who try to keep them too safe and the other prisons is social media. I'm so glad that the new generation is getting hit with 80s sound and loving it. I see it and hear it everywhere. ( Stranger things.. movies)
Born in 1971 (January) and teenager in the great 80s. Oh Lord, I confirm that we'd really need to go back to that era ! It was full of creativity, and we had so much freedom (of thoughts and speech) compared to nowadays. We had just enough technologies to make our days easier, but not enough to enslave us. Life was not perfect of course, but it was more rad, "chillier", and somewhat brighter, like subdued light of coloured neons. 🌆
100%!!!!
Born in 79, this takes me back to when I was a kid when everything seemed easier............unlike NOW!!! FML
The artwork somehow suggests that we wish we lived in a past that feels like the future.
That’s was the 80s hey. Everyone thought the future was just around the corner😄
I think the 80's will be marked down in history as the best or golden years of humans existence, I'm so glad I was part of it. The years may keep on climbing but the 80's music will keep on playing till time it self doesn't exist, this is eternity.
I was born in 1968 and I can tell you "what was good about this music at that time" and still hear it today makes me extremely happy. When I saw the movie "drive" and also the credits of Stranger Things, I had this little smile. Thank you for these sounds -I love the first track.
Night Call omg
which movie "drive", what year?
@@mrtienphysics666 HI- Drive from Nicolas Winding Refn out in 2011.
Same year here, October
Ok i'll jump on the bandwagon as well, I was born in 1987, and luv this 80's synth and picture.
And remember kids, to listen to these kinds of mixes with headphones that have a headband worn over the head, with each phone on / over the ears. Best sound and experience ever ❤.
Haha love it!!
I ❤THE 80'S 💯 JUST LIKE THIS MUSIC ❤💯😊WISH WE COULD BRING BACK THE GOOD THINGS AGAIN FROM THE 80'S
I grew up on rollerskates. I'm gonna buy some new ones TODAY!
No way thats awesome! :D
I miss the 80s and I wasn’t born until 1990, wish I could have born earlier to experience the 80s fully. Everything now is just so….. broken….. the 80s seemed….. perfect 😢
Born in mid-70s. Glad I was able to hear this genre in its infancy and its expansion toward the mainstream. Current synth technology does the old sounds right.
This sound and this image define the difference between growing up in the 80’s and being born in the 80’s.
A lot of us born in the 80’s lay a massive claim on the decade instead of admitting that we grew up in the 90’s and 2000’s when things stopped being so simple. Really wish I had been a teen in the 80’s instead.
Miss the 80s badly
Same
20 seconds in. This feels good.
I do miss those days. Maybe we'll see them again.
I was born in 77,, so my best child hood memories are all in the 80’s then the 90s hit and Gang banging and drugs took over my life growing up in East Oakland,, now I’m 46 living my best life sober serving God and living in Texas.
Wow thanks for sharing! Awesome to hear you turned it all around and living the best life now! Respect my friend🙏🏼
Born in 77 as well and I've been in love with Jesus since I was 5 years old. Welcome to Texas, really wish California was what it was 30 to 40 years ago.
there's something magical about the 80s
Being born in 85’ meant I didn’t get to enjoy the 80s, but the music and movies of that era certainly carried over to the early 90s 😊
I was born in '86, I definitely still have memories being in the 80s though...
@@hairedesigned3833 I have some memories of the 80s but not compared to the 90s…cheers to us my 80s brother or sister🍻
Why do I have 80s nostalgia if I wasn't born in the 80s 😮💨I feel like the 80s and 90s were the last time people were allowed to live and enjoy the outdoors. I listen to this and remember stuff that I never did its so weird.
Born in 78. I miss the 80s up until 1995. Best time of my life. Wish i could go back. 😢. Thanks for this lovely nostalgic music, brings back sweet memories. Subbed.
At least we still have the movies and music from that era!😄
Born 75 here. Experienced a lot of extreme highs and lows during the 80’s and 90’s. The rest of the succeeding decades became kinda flat.
John: this is bring the 80's back to our world While bring the spirit of the 80's with it.
80's was my best time of life. I am so glad I managed to live that at that age. I miss my pals, my cars, my girls, those endless summers, night clubs, music, fashion, you name it.
Different from today hey!
The world I was born in does not exist anymore. What a time to be alive, and what a time to reflect on. There was a sense of innocence, of not knowing what the world would become. Analog was the world, and it was simple.
Track 1 already has me hooked!
Thanks Alexander🙂
Born 73' The 80's rocked! so glad I made that generation. We were taught to be self-sufficient. Some of us were neglected, but not un-loved... just left to ourselves, (which I actually loved); so many good times and memories. Music was a HUGE part of our lives, probably because it wasn't instant, at least not until CD's. All the tapes I owned had been bought at least 2X minimum. Soundtracks were a big deal back then, this playlist is a memory pill of sorts, thanks for sharing! When my kids hear me talk about high school, they just can't relate, at all. They don't get that talking, storytelling and hanging out was the norm. Most kids have a hard time communicating, but they can all text. I'm so thankful youtube and cell-phones were not around back then, even though I use each a lot today.
Well said!😃
Lived my teens in the 80's. It was deffintly a magical time.
Same here bro. It was the best of times!

Wow .. 82 here. You got something here my man! 10/10 and Subscribed!! :)
Thanks so much for the support M. L.🙂I’ve been very fortunate that my channel has been received super well.
Ironically, I was only just accepted into the TH-cam partner program around 10 days ago, but then immediately removed. TH-cam deemed my channel as “reused content” that “does not offer any value to viewers”.
I feel this claim is 100% incorrect and false! I’ve asked for examples, and they won’t tell me, which is just crazy. I also asked how could a human from TH-cam initially review my channel and accept me and my content into the program, but then an automated bot remove me? Again they won't answer!
So I’m now reaching out to my supporters and subscribers for help. If you can spare a few minutes, it would mean the world to me if you could reach out to TH-cam via any social media handle you have.
On Twitter, you can tweet them @TeamTH-cam. On Instagram you can message them on their page TH-cam, on Facebook you can find their page as TH-cam.
If you could please reach out to them in any way, mention my TH-cam handle "GalacticDrive" and tell them how you as a TH-cam supporter find value in my content and that my removal from the TH-cam partner program should be reversed immediately.
I’m hoping if I can get enough support from my subscribers then TH-cam will listen and agree that my content does offer value to you😄 Thanks so much for your help! 🙏🏼

Even though I was born in 1989, I still feel like I have some sort of spiritual connection with this magical decade. I'm just so drawn to every good thing that the 80's had despite not really getting to experience said decade physically. Thank you for putting this out.
Well, the general feeling of the 80s bled well into the 90s. They were both distinct, but the spirit was similar. Stark contrast between them and the 2000s-present. You're the same age as my little brother, and he's through and through an 80s/90s kid.
Track 7 is one of the most heavenly, reflective and resonating tunes I have ever heard. What a wonderful creation. Thankyou!. Born 1985, but wishing I was born 1965 to have heard all 80s music live at the time!
