[abruemmer]

Giving New Order’s “Blue Monday” less than 9 out of 10 is outrageous.

[ssdivizion]

As a 50-year-old man, I can tell the younger generations that the 80's were a fantastic decade in many ways, there was optimism, faith in an bright future and cool things around every corner....Greetz from Balkans, Europe

[niles]

Once again, JAXON WAS BORN IN THE WRONG GENERATION! He knows his stuff! We accept him as a millenial! Also, we love that he is embracing his natural hair!

[davidrobinson]

As a Gen X'er, none of these were deep cuts.

[jonathansmith]

Giving Blue Monday a 5 should be a bannable offense.

[greatful_dude]

THESE GIVE "BLUE MONDAY" A F-ING "FIVE"???!!!! NO PHONES AND INTERNET FOR THEM FOR ONE MONTH!

[GeminiWolfstarGaming]

The fact that Paulina called Rick Astley a ginger Elvis just has me dying in laughter! 🤣🤣🤣☠☠☠

[GeminiWolfstarGaming]

Let's Dance.... one of the best songs to come out of my birth year!

[sparky_]

Growing up with Roxette ... Till this day listening to them day in and out. Danced to these as a little wee boy while standing in front of the Box TV

[lellyt]

Yes Pet Shop Boys should be on any playlist claiming to be 80's. They are ICONIC! Erasure also need to be on any list you claim is 80's hits

[jamescrane]

David Bowie - Let’s Dance is not a deep cut, it was a huge hit.

[WineSippingCowboy]

[timisme]

I am really glad that music from my generation still rings the bell with the younger generation. I got a lot of joy watching how much they enjoyed listening to these songs. Watching this episode, I felt like a kid again! I'm 62 but 25 didn't seem to be so distant in the rear view mirror. Lol

[othfan]

Jaxon sounding like Cher instead of Rick Astley is hilarious.

[heathersrubianoarango]

This was such an episode!!! Duran Duran, Roxette, Petshop boys!!!

[steph]

Astley was SO FREAKING YOUNG to have a voice like that.

[timisme]

Next: An episode featuring women rockers from the 80s!
Heart, Lita Ford, Pat Benatar, Blondie, Joan Jett, Vixen, Cyndi Lauper, Tina Turner, Madonna, BonnieTyler, Berlin ... The list could go on and on!

[ryanwall]

Faith no more deserved better scores come on man!

[rcpmunlin]

I was born in 73 and that kid knew more of the lyrics than I did, but i was a metal kid in the 80s.... but I was impressed with his knowledge, I appreciate they liked the music..

[tatty]

Jaxon has a good taste in music. I know that he just turned 21 recently but he knows music that is way behind his age 😊
