24 Songs That Will Always Make ’80s Egyptian Kids Happy

It’s 2016 and I’m disappointed and somewhat bored. Music used to rock your soul. Genres actually felt different. This musical fusion that’s been going on for the past decade is getting on 80s kids’ nerves. Commercial music used to be fun and stupid, alternative rock could actually rock your soul and break-up songs were more than music videos of girls crying in their lingerie looking better than you on your wedding day.

 

Those were the good times when all you had to do was buy the latest Now That’s What I Call Music cassette tapes and find a song that fits every possible emotion. I’m sorry guys, I love Drake and Bieber just as much as you, but I find it very hard to sing till my lungs and heart explode from all emotions these days. These next 24 songs changed lives, turned parties upside down, left you weeping and dancing and it was too good to be true:

 

 

We would ‘I Would Do Anything For Love’ but actually do nothing at all

 

 

 

I’m Blue da ba dee da ba daa

 

 

 

‘Don’t Speak’ was every heart broken girl’s slogan

 

 

 

Like no one was actually a ‘Creep’ but we really wanted to depict ourselves as one so the song fits our unexplained hormonal drama

 

 

 

‘Oops! I did It Again’ and it was not breaking his heart, it was eating another sandwich

 

 

 

‘Zombie’ Zombie Zombie2eeh 2eeh 2eeh 2ooh 2ooh

 

 

 

The ‘Cotton Eye Joe’ at every birthday party that ended up with a guy falling down

 

 

 

Mmmbop

 

 

 

‘Ice Ice Baby’ and acting cool AF

 

 

‘Informer’ you know bekekhkebekbe 2ewww! Aliki bombom beeyyy! Seriously, lyrical sense was never made!

 

 

‘Gettin’ Jiggy With It’ and getting down and dirty at parties

 

 

 

‘Do You Believe?’ No Cher, we don’t

 

 

 

‘Livin’ La Vida Loca’ but singing Ole ole ole

 

 

 

Enrique Iglesias being her ‘Hero’ and leaving us all weeping

 

 

 

La isla Bonita

 

 

 

‘Genie In A Bottle’ was when 90s kids joined us in musical matrimony

 

 

 

Listen to ‘Iris’ and cry a river for days

 

 

 

‘Killin’ Me Softly’ is one the few songs that you could do any kind of dance to

 

 

 

The music video for ‘November Rain’ had an epic moment when we finally saw Slash’s face in front of the church

 

 

 

‘California Love’ is still our jam till this very day

 

 

 

‘All That She Wants’ was about the girl who created the friend-zone

 

 

‘Barbie Girl’ in a barbie world

 

 

 

Screaming ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ still gives us all the feels

 

 

 

And everything that is Michael Jackson was simply epic

 

 

 

WE SAID THIS: Can the 90s come back for just one week???
