Music from the 1980s is some of the best music around. Hands down. I feel like it was the last era of truly talented music. When I listen to this music, every song takes me back to my teens, and I can remember when and where I first heard the song, or what I was doing when listening to the music. Sweet memories.
To celebrate Valentine’s Day, here’s a list of some of my most favorite love songs from the 80s (in no particular order). I hope you enjoy this playlist!
