My Modern 80s Playlist
As someone who grew up with 80s music. I have been accustomed to the genre. I wasn’t even four years old before my mother sat me on the couch and played Pat Benatar, Bonnie Tyler, Natalie Cole, and the list goes on.

Ihave pondered what to do for a few weeks and thought I would simply trawl the world wide web for unaccompanied folk ballads.
