Via Verdi – Diamond
Dear Dinosaurs, today I want to tell you a story that dates back to the last week and the last day of 1985! A personal memory: to celebrate New Year’s Eve, my class was meeting at a classmate’s house, about mid-afternoon. Someone started cooking,

Falco – Jeanny
A few days before Christmas 1985, a song came out and it was not at all a Christmas song; on the contrary, it was destined to cause much discussion, and it happened to be boycotted in several countries. The author was one of the greatest musical geniuses of the 80s,

Mr. Mister – Kyrie
I don’t know if it was a coincidence that a prayer-inspired song came out exactly four days before Christmas. In the 1980s, anything could certainly happen, and sometimes it even happened by accident. In December 1985 the American group Mr. Mister was riding an extraordinary wave,

Secret Service – Flash in the Night
Probably the Swedish secret services are not among the most famous in the world, but at the beginning of the 80s a Swedish group called Secret Service was certainly famous. Their story began in the mid-70s on the initiative of Ola Håkansson,

Desireless – Voyage Voyage
Voyage Voyage is definitely one of those songs with an impact that was possible only in the 80s. The song hit the charts across Europe in December 1986, but the story of this song, and of course of its author,

Masquerade – Guardian Angel
#quotefromthe80s
I feel I’m falling apart ’cause I know I’ve lost my guardian angel
A fleeting glimpse of your heart losing by
From the start, no return
And things will never be the same

Sometimes in the 80s it happened that a song a little out of the box,

Harold Faltermeyer – Axel F.
Perhaps for those who aren’t real 80’s Dinosaurs, the name Axel F. won’t say much. And Harold Faltermeyer’s name probably won’t say much either. But I’m sure that for real Dinosaurs these names bring to mind a lot of memories,

Wham! – Last Christmas
Dear friends, for us Dinosaurs of the 80s, Christmas undoubtedly reminds us of George Michael. Not only because with this fantastic song he has been leading us to Christmas for more than 30 years, but also because he left us exactly in the evening of December 25,
