My August Playlist

My August Playlist - Ode to the 80s

I thought it would be fun to add a theme to my playlists so I'm choosing some of my favorite songs from the 1980s.  I was 16 years old in 1980 and like most people at 16, I am sure I didn't imagine how quickly time would pass.  32 years later these songs seem like they were playing a decade ago, not 3.

Whether I'm cycling or weight lifting, these 25 songs
represent either great memories, lyrics, or driving beats 
that keep me motivated.
