Mature 80's music

"Okay, I was a teenager in the 80's. And I mean, the entirety of my teenage years were in the 80's. Sadly, I had no connection with my peers at the time and totally missed 80's music.

Recently, I've been trying to catch up on what other kids were listening to back then.

Okay... I already knew two of these songs; "Don't Dream It's Over" and "Something So Strong."

Upon hearing the rest of the disc, I'm impressed. I think I would have liked these guys had I heard them back when I thought everything the other kids were listening to was bubble-gummy crap.

There is, however, a maturity level to these songs that I think may have eluded me then... but that leads me to think I would have stayed a fan as I aged and the songs took on more depth to me."

Where is Recurring Dream?

"I love this compilation, however, am I the only one missing a certain song? From the Tequila Sunrise soundtrack? Which would be "Recurring Dream"? What gives? I think that exclusion was either a glaring error or on purpose. Maybe there was an issue with film rights or something. Oh well. Enjoy your music without the hangover."
