#24

Long before she became Mrs. John McEnroe, Patty Smyth was a rockin' lead singing chick with an attitude for a group called Scandal. The Excellent 80's countdown continues to roll on with the group's biggest hit. I love the song and the video is so campy and bad, that it's almost good. I love Patty's hair when they fix it standing straight up in the video. Everybody now - bang! bang! I am The Warrior.

Guess It's Better To Say

I think today's song was under appreciated back in 1982 only reaching #65 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart... considered a minor hit by the band Scandal I think this song was never celebrated for what it was - a bouncy, classic kiss-off song that would have easily gone top 10 if sung by The Go Go's... lead singer Patty Smyth's dance moves in the video are very Go-Go's like and the song is classic early 80's... here is "Goodbye To You"...
