Just like the white winged dove....
In 1982, Sony launched the first consumer compact disc player, the first Rubik’s cube championships were held in Budapest and Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” is released and quickly becomes the biggest selling album of all time in entertainment history.
Some people enjoy “tagging” their online friends to find out more about them. I don’t “tag”. How could you possibly find out more about a person than by reading their favorite songs of 1982? What could be so bad about that? Sheesh.

As I'm reading this list, I'm singing each song in my head. I think there were only two that didn't pop right out into song, but I know if I heard them I'd know them. Nice job, Julie. My fav songs of 1982? Um, I think I was "skin-a-ma-rinky-dinky-dink, skinnamarinkydo!" Tony was only 2 in 1982, so I was into the kid songs. Itsy bitsy spider....
Holy smokes....I like nearly all of them! I feel like dancing now. I saw Journey and The Cars in concert. Ahhh, those were the days. I never did get the Steve Perry thing, oh well. Thanks for the journey. There is something about 867-5309 and We Got the Beat that still makes me want to sing along. I love 80's tuesdays!
ROFLOL! I remember the songs, but would have to go right along with Debbie.....my first was born in 1982 and children songs were big on my list.
