UncleJimmy: Im a bit confused, the goal states: "Then there are those one name bands of the 80's that resonate....Tears for Fears, Wham!, OMD, Pet Shop Boys, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, (Prince and) the Revolution,... " So are we looking for ONE name bands from the 80's or ANY band from the 80's or what? Because although the goal states "ONE NAME BANDS" only one of the bands as a reference has a single word in the name? ( 5 years and 2758 days ago )

Wayne Cheah: I do believe it can be from any era. The 80s was mentioned merely as an example. The photo should "represents" the band's name, and not a photo of the band or its name. For example to represent the band "The Rolling Stone", I suppose you take a photo of a stone or stones rolling? ( 5 years and 2758 days ago )

photogirl723: Yes, any era. When I suggested this, I had actual one-name bands listed (Journey, Asia, Styx, Foreigner). It was changed. But it was just an example. So any band, any era.

kyricom: Thank god it's not just the 80's and later... that's the decade music really started to take a nosedive!

Fade out.

Rows of houses, all bearing down on me
I can feel their blue hands touching me
All these things into position
All these things we'll one day swallow whole
And fade out again and fade out

This machine will, will not communicate
These thoughts and the strain I am under
Be a world child, form a circle
Before we all go under
And fade out again and fade out again

Cracked eggs, dead birds
Scream as they fight for life
I can feel death, can see its beady eyes
All these things into position
All these things we'll one day swallow whole
And fade out again and fade out again (5 years and 2756 days ago)

Formed by Don Henley in 1971 and inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998. Too many great songs to list. This shot this out my back door quite by surprise. They grabbed each other claw to claw and tumble towards the ground behind some trees. Wish I had captured the whole sequence. (5 years and 2755 days ago)
