Friday Night Videos: Girls' Night Out

Even as the guys were polishing up their image in the 80s, the girl rockers were dressing down, becoming edgier and a whole lot more sexually agressive. Adopting punk styles, new wave beats, and in-your-face attitudes, female rockers owned the 1980s. Following up last week's look at Pretty Boy Rockers, join us for a Girls' Night Out on this week's Friday Night Videos.

The influence of the female rocker on the decade just can't be overstated and there's a whole lot of great videos. As a result we really had to pick and choose to get a representative sampling of girl dominated bands. Some of the biggest names were left out, like Tina Turner and Madonna because they tend to get more airplay than their talent deserves and despite their massive album sales in the '80s, there are many more interesting bands with much more talent. So we hope you enjoy the longest edition of Friday Night Videos yet with our Girls' Night Out. Bonus quiz: Which cheezy '80s film are you?

I'm "Say Anything". Not bad, I like it.
Though, that boombox would get HEAVY.
Yay for '80s girl rock! I actually had "Love is a battlefield" in my head yesterday...

Great edition, tng. Any videoroll that includes Eurythmics is okay by me.

I was "Say Anything" also, Madame. I find that somewhat odd. I was expecting a Brat Pack selection, but I think the overcoat and black T probably screwed things up.
Just remember, "Never stop loving your dead gay son!"

How odd. I'm 'Say Anything' too. We're like a sad little John Cusack fan club here.

I wonder if John Cusack would endorse Braindead Shithead? He must have a blog by now. Everybody has a blog now.

Well, at least Ariana Huffington is pretending to be John Cusack's blog. Kinda like how HuffPo pretended to be George Clooney's blog.

I'm Say Anything too.

A John Cusak endorsement would just blow this blog away!

Maybe Say Anything is the only response you can get out of this quiz? I'm not at all surprised I got a John Cusack film, though I would have thought it'd be Better Off Dead but it's just too weird that everyone else is too.

That's what I thought, tng, but the little qualifier at the bottom says only 5% got "Say Anything" as an answer! Isn't that weird?

Wow, that is really odd.
Though, it does show how we ended up on this blog together.
