(Finished October 8th, 2019) themusicaddict's Top 106 Greatest 80's Era Band Addendum: Night Ranger

Hello,

In my attempt to finish all my unfinished blogs I'm working more on this blog on October 8th, 2019.

I've been focusing on finishing the Top 106 Greatest 80's Era Bands. I originally started out with 106 bands, but as I've went along I've remembered other bands that might deserve to be on my rankings. Once I finish this series of countdown blogs, I then am going to finalize those rankings and then publish a second and final countdown of probably about 120 bands.

The next band up is Night Ranger, they aren't in the original rankings. I'm going to write a series of countdown blogs for them for when I do the final rankings of 80's bands. Also I get to go see Night Ranger in a couple of weeks, the first time I've ever seen them. I'm excited!!!!

And that concert was amazing by the way, I was amazed how great Night Ranger is still in concert. One of the best concerts I've been to the last few years.

This blog will evolve into a countdown blog, but first these are best songs from their first CD, "Dawn Patrol" and a few other great songs. 

1) "Don't Tell Me You Love Me":



2) "Sing Me Away":



3) "At Night She Sleeps":



4) "Call My Name":



5) "Eddie's Coming Out Tonight":



6) "Can't Find Me A Thrill":



7) "Young Girl In Love":



8) "Carry On":



9) "When You Close Your Eyes":



10) "The Secret Of My Success":



11) "Sentimental Street":



12) "Four In The Morning":

(Finished June 17th, 2018) A Rabbit Hole Blog: Where Will We End?

Hello,

Starting with Taylor Swift's "Sparks Fly", I'm going to jump in the rabbit hole and see where it ends. I'll post the next video that plays and so on and so on.

Taylor Swift "Sparks Fly":


Taylor Swift "Picture To Burn":


Miss Swift again "Fifteen":


Then after 4 or 5 more Taylor Swift songs it led to this interesting video and no I didn't listen to all 80 minutes of it:


Coldplay "Adventure Of A Lifetime":


Piano Covers, another 80 minutes of mostly instrumental covers:



This idea is starting to suck, now there's 80 minute of Kenny G's best songs. The only way anything by Kenny G would appear on this blog:



After about the third Kenny G video I had to reset this blog. I picked Ozzy's "Crazy Train":



Ozzy "Mr. Crowley":



From one Sabbath singer to another Sabbath singer, on the Sabbath nonetheless!!
Heaven and Hell "Die Young":



Back To Ozzy for "Perry Mason":



Ozzy "No More Tears":



Ozzy and Lita Ford "Close My Eyes Forever":



This is the bottom of the rabbit hole. The greatest band of all-time, "Kashmir":
