WOTP: Omigod! The '80's Pop Culture Box (Totally)

I just picked this up today at Virgin, because I got tired of drooling over the list from Rhino's site.

I'm so glad I did...

Even on Disc One, I'm basking in such songs as "Whip It!", "Turning Japanese", "Video Killed The Radio Star", "9 to 5", "Cars", "Shake It Up"...

... Okay, I love a ton of '70s songs, but I now know I'm a Child of the 80's (which is sort of pathetic), but those silly pop MTV songs call to my soul.

For those of you who want to see the 142 songs included in the 7 disc set:

Rhino's been good to MST fans, too. :) But this is the cherry on my cake for them.

By the way, it has "Don't You Forget About Me" and "Walking On Sunshine", two songs pivotal in Futurama... :)

But it doesn't include, uh, damn, can't remember the name of the song at the end of the episode where Leela finds her parents. :-)

Sunshine",

It's not an 80's song. :)

Hey! It doesn't have Sir Mixalot's "Baby Got Back," the iconic example of 31st Century classical music! That's just wrong. :P

Sat stil an 80's brat

No, but it does have The Breaks by Kurtis Blow :) Besides, "Baby Got Back" is just a moldy song about the buttocks.
