    Hi peeps,

    seeing the popularity of Devon's 80's music quizzes, I thought I'd post something a bit more difficult :)

    See if you can spot who is the Artist - Song of each of the following screens of Music Videos from the 80's.

    Have Fun!

    Excellent with the Travelling Wilburys, I thought George in the back and Petty's hat would give it away :)

    Bowie's hairstyle should give the video away I thought, I don't think he had it like that in any other video.

    5. Fleetwood Mac - Little Lies

    Bowie's hairstyle should give the video away I thought, I don't think he had it like that in any other video.

    Well its Bowie in 1983 mode, that I know!
    If it isnt Modern love then you have outfoxed me :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,013 ✭✭✭Wolverine_1999


    Thats the one!

    4. David Bowie - Modern Love
    5. Fleetwood Mac - Little Lies

    2 Artists appear twice, once on their own, and once in a band.. if that's any help..


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,013 ✭✭✭Wolverine_1999


    Marillion is correct, the old kilt gave it away there...

    9. Stevie Nicks - Room On Fire

    Classic 80's look of a face with big hair and flashing lights in the back ground ;)
