What Band From the 80s Are You?
http://quizilla.com/users/MargeLoves/quizzes/What%20band%20from%20the%2080s%20are%20you%3F

As for me:



You're very feminine, and you don't care who knows
it. You're not willing to let homophobes get
to you. You also like hats.

1. U2 - It could be worse
You're in touch with the world, and you have a very strong opinion on things like politics and war. Even if you do end up changing your image in the future, most of us will still like you.

4. The Cure .... I swear I didn't cheat!

"You're so depressed... but why? Some people might call you whiny and annoying, and you are, to them. You still have people that are willing to listen to you... right after they've been dumped."

I actually do love the Cure. But I'm not depressed or whiny. I have no idea where that came from!

42. My music budget is so limited that I can't get many cds, but
my most favorite song is "Just Like Heaven". I have a midi of it that is THE single best midi that I have. I also love "Friday". I would LOVE to get more of their music, when I get some extra money to shop for music. Actually, what's weird is that during the 80's, I was into the underground punk scene music a lot and I'm a diehard fan of Blondie,Joan Jett and the Ramones. Those have always been my MOST favorites. I find myself getting into the Cure a LOT more lately, so I'm a rather "new" fan.

9. I am Depeche Mode


You're just looking for love. You're very emotional, and a lot of sad teenagers are going to turn to you when they feel like shit. You're also into BDSM, you devil, you.

10. The Pixies
You rule. in 15 years, you won't be as known as you are now, but most of the people that will know you then will like you (or else I'll beat them with a stick). You're nice to listen to.

37. Why no REM?
Wait, why no REM. Wouldn't many DU'ers be REM?

Then again, I was probably the only person on the planet listening to them in the 80's.

38. Echo and the Bunnymen
You're all about the music. Not too incredibly mainstream, but not too incredibly underground. It's awfully hard for anyone to oppose you, seeing as how you rule.





I probably would have said Men At Work.

Personally, I was maybe thinking of the Beatles, but U2 will do in a pinch...

41. Everywhere i go, I take a little piece of you. I collect, I reject...
...photographs I took of you.

I'm Soft Cell! And I'm happy about that.


You have a lot going for you, but most people will
only remember you for one thing, and a lot of
them will try to copy it. They'll all suck at
it, though. Besides, you've got better stuff.
