[アメリカン・アイドル] 番外編。80年代のチャートを見てみましょう。
ドラマを中心にやっているサイトですが、ちょっと脱線。今週のAmerican Idolは80年代をテーマにしていたので、チャートを調べてみました。今聴いても素晴らしいと感じる色褪せない名曲が沢山あります。
さすがに圧巻だなぁ。今でも聴く曲が結構ありますねー。ノリのいいポップスが多いので、ドライブしている時にかけて口ずさみながら運転という方も多いのでは? みなさんのお気に入りの曲はあったでしょうか。私は"Say You, Say Me"と"Heaven Is A Place On Earth"が大好きです。

さすがに圧巻だなぁ。今でも聴く曲が結構ありますねー。ノリのいいポップスが多いので、ドライブしている時にかけて口ずさみながら運転という方も多いのでは? みなさんのお気に入りの曲はあったでしょうか。私は"Say You, Say Me"と"Heaven Is A Place On Earth"が大好きです。
