Thank you for stopping by! Awfully Awesome 80's is your 24/7 listener-supported internet radio guide to the music of the 80's through the early 90's. We play lost and classic top 40 hits, but we also place a heavy emphasis on the minor charters and non-charters...or as we call them, bottom 45's. Special Mixcloud shows will be announced as time permits. If you're a VIP member and have a general suggestion or a song request, then please use our chat widget in the lower right corner or the manual contact form below. Your request will be queued for play at a minimum of 60 minutes if it is already in the station's inventory; otherwise, I will process your request as soon as I can. Please read the "Membership Special" post below if you're interested in submitting multiple song requests every day (18 a week plus occasional theme blocks and your own idea for a special show); I can only serve those who are willing to contribute, since the costs to bring you a high-quality stream are astronomical these days. Please note that the membership contribution is ONE-TIME ONLY AND ISN'T REQUIRED EVERY MONTH.

If you appreciate what we do, then please make use of our PayPal buttons on the site. You can donate a one-time amount or choose from 10 monthly subscription amounts; the donations will help enhance our programming and keep us on Live365. Yes, Awfully Awesome 80's is legitimate and pays artist royalties!

NEW ADDS FOR 5/9

I know, waiting for me to post some new adds to the rotation was like waiting for Genesis to release a follow-up album to Invisible Touch, but here we go:

Top 40:

1. Gavin Christopher - One Step Closer To You - '86
2. The S.O.S. Band - Take Your Time(Do It Right) - '80
3. Frank Stallone - Far From Over - '83
4. Alan Parsons Project - Games People Play - '80
5. Alan Parsons Project - Time - '81
6. Vixen - Cryin' - '89
7. Lionel Richie - Running With The Night - '83
8. Lionel Richie - Se La - '87
9. When In Rome - The Promise - '88

Bottom 45's:

1. Keep It Dark - Dreamer - '86
2. Animotion - Calling It Love - '89
3. Steve Carlisle - WKRP In Cincinnati - '81
4. Burns Sisters Band - I Wonder Who's Out Tonight - '86
5. Hawks - Right Away - '81
6. Shooting Star - Touch Me Tonight - '89

The Burns Sisters track is one of those fun and energetic lost gems that was just as good as anything that The Go-Go's and The Bangles had hits with; MTV played it for nearly 2 months!

Tune in using our "Listen Live" button at http://awfullyawesomeeighties.com. Our request theme this week is: Request an 80's hit or rarity from any N through Z artist!
