I need some suggestions for my MP3 Player

You want to download 80's songs? I only know a few songs in the 80's. And most of the songs are love songs. I think you can Google the top songs in the 80's. You can find good music online.. Try it.. So that you can listen to your fave songs back in the 80's...

We have a charity shop across the road which sells second-hand CDs. I noticed the other day that they have quite a lot of 80's music in compilations. Their prices are quite reasonable and, if it were the kind of thing I listened to, I would have bought several, ripped them to MP3 and put them on my player.

If you have trouble ripping CD tracks to MP3, you need Audiograbber, which is Freeware (plus the lame.dll file which you can download from the site). This does a painless job of ripping CDs and it also connects to a database so that the tracks are named automatically.

I'm a big '80s fan! Start with these.
-Janie's Got a Gun
-White Wedding
-Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)
-Rock me Amadeus
-Karma Chameleon
-Hands to Heaven
-Poison
-Dancing with Myself
-You spin me round (like a record)
-Don't you want me, baby?
-Safety Dance
-Do you really want to hurt me?
-Addicted to Love
-Jesse's Girl
-Centerfold
-Kids in America
-Don't you forgot about me.
-Take on me
-I just want to use your love (Not sure if that's the right title, but The Outfield sings it.)
-Head over Heels
-Just a friend
-One night in Bangkok

I LOVE the 80's. Anything by Duran Duran, Def Lepard, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith.
I also love Ozzy, Eagles, Poison, Cyndi Lauper, Madonna, Dexy's Midnight Runner, Cinderella, Reo Speedwagon.
I could go on all day

Sure there are a lot of goodies from the decade.

A good way to find music 80s related is to go to google and search "80s electro blogspot" or "80s disco funk blogspot". That will take you to places where the keytar is cooler then sitting in the swimming pool drinking pîna coladâ.
