5 out of 5 stars PRICELESS!!!.......2007-06-23

The songs"Sailing"and "Never Gonna Let You Go"are worth the price of the entire album itself!!I listen to"Sailing"and nearly fall asleep,just envisioning,spending an entire summer,escaping lifes' hardships'sailing peacefully,through the Great Lakes,watching the sun glistening,off the waters' surface...."Never Gonna Let You Go"is a beautifully INTENSE and heartfelt love song!!Sergio actually takes a backseat(in my eyes)to whoever that husky/sexy-voiced woman is that he's singing with/to!!! This song is so"alive"with sincere passion,that I routinely play it at LEAST 7 times each day!!Actually the ENTIRE album is WONDROUS,so,I simply expounded on my two FAVORITES!!Everybody should own this disc!!When you get it,you can basically break of the "forward"button on your disc player,while you're playing this gem,cause it's HIT after HIT from the first track to the last!!

5 out of 5 stars This Brings Me Back..........2007-01-24

I've been searching for a CD to add to my collection of all those love songs that I remember from middle and high school. My favorite song on this CD is Sergio Mendez' Never Gonna Let You Go, which was the first song I ever slow danced to as a teenager. If you are looking for a single CD to bring you back to a time when you had your first slow dance, your first kiss, or your first girlfriend/boyfriend, then this one is for you.

5 out of 5 stars must have.......2007-01-12

My husband asks if I have enough 80's cd music collection, nope, and this is another excellent addition. Must have

5 out of 5 stars excelent.........2006-12-24

5 out of 5 stars Great!!!.......2006-11-13

5 out of 5 stars Love This CD.......2007-01-12

I am in my late 30's and grew up listening to these songs. Love them, a must have for all you who grew up listening to the songs. Reminds me of special times.

1 out of 5 stars Second rate commercial pap will always suck........2006-01-09

It doesn't matter when or where the music comes from, if its characterised by dull chord progressions, hackneyed lyrics and lousy production it will never stand the test of time. The songs in this compilation will NEVER NEVER make the grade. I grew up in the eighties, and this collection of truly awful radio hits is testimony to the conservatism that characterised programming at this time. Images of overweight realtors and shopping mall managers twisting and frooging to this dreck at their local beer barn permeate my tortured consciousness. Thank God Nirvana and other bands with integrity came along and changed all that.

5 out of 5 stars 80s hits .......2005-12-31

ill probably still be listening to 80s hits when im 80 yrs old. this decade generated some of the greatest songs of all time.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent collection of some overlooked '80s hits.......2005-04-11

I've had this CD for 4 years and still love it! I like the green packaging, for neon colors were so common in the '80s. There are some songs here that were hits, but surprisingly overlooked or only peaked in the teens, 20s or 30s of the pop charts. There are some others that did go top 10 or No. 1. I still love Lessons In Love by Level 42, a song I liked in the summer of 1987 and still do today. I still like Johnny Hates Jazz's wonderful Shattered Dreams. Duran Duran's Notorious and The Power Station's Some Like it Hot add some funk to this album. But one '80s song on here was one I got to hear for the very first time--The Plimsouls' A Million Miles Away from 1983. It sounds quite good and original for them. The ones by Rick Springfield, Glass Tiger, Asia and others are still superb on here. One rare surprise is the kicking opener of Simple Minds' Don't You Forget About Me and its extended version of 6:32. They extended some sections of the intros, bridges and other parts to the original song to make it longer. This album smartly acknowledges some of the most underrated songs and hits of the '80s and does it well for 77 minutes!

5 out of 5 stars Only In The Movie...NOW on CD!.......2005-02-08

What was once only available on a 12" vinyl single and the "actual" soundstrip...not soundtrack...of the film, "The Breakfast Club", "Pure 80's Hits" now boasts the FULL version of Simple Minds, "Don't You Forget About Me"! Yes indeed...after all these years! To the "average" household listener of 80's music, he or she may not even tell the slightest bit of difference...and not even care...but to true collectors of that decade's gems, this CD has that "hard-to-find" full-length version of that Simple Minds signature song. Listen! The first 15 seconds is VASTLY different than the cut-up version that gets played on all those homogenized-sounding, 80's flash-back radio programs...not to mention, the "extra" verse in the middle of the song, with a complete set of alternate lyrics! So for this...and this reason only...I give the CD FIVE big stars!

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars U have to own one if you were a teenager in 1984.......2001-12-10

This was during Xmas 1984. One lovely girl from Texas brought to Poland (this is where I live) the 10 cassetes pack with "The Best of Billboard - 1984". I still hear this music. Now I can buy a piece of it.

To anyone who was ...teen in 1984: you have to own this one. Don't tell me there is no music you remember from these years. It must be one at least. Remember the first girlfriend. The first kiss maybe? Yes! That's it!.

5 out of 5 stars I want my MTV!.......2000-06-17

This set takes me back to the early days of MTV. Pac-Man fever, Atari and great times in my life. As a child of the 80s it was a special time and special music. This box set helps take you back from time to time!

5 out of 5 stars this is a great collection of the top songs.......1999-09-16

again billboard has done well in putting together a box set of the best songs of this time period. you will appreciate this gathering of the best. every listening minute of this box set is pure elation. not to be passed up.

4 out of 5 stars Great tunes you'd remember if you where there!.......2007-01-17

Check out the details...if you like the songs, then there you go!

5 out of 5 stars YOU MUST GET.......2007-01-12

This collection is terrific. During the 85-89 era, I was a teenager, and this brings back all the great memories.

5 out of 5 stars Maybe This Will Help?.......2004-08-29

First off, I won't argue what's here because these songs are good enough to be in this collection. Now that I got that out of the way, here is the real problem: licencing. Madonna and company are not here for that reason alone. However, by looking at the song list, you may buy the songs you want but don't have. You can also buy each CD separately. There are other options then this to summerize.

3 out of 5 stars Billboard top hits 1985-1989 box set.......2004-06-19

I was just going to buy this music box set when I suddenly remembered two great songs of 1985, which are: Born in the USA and Careless Whisper. Am I wrong? or weren't they hits? Where are they? I think they could have left out two other songs and included the ones I mentioned, because they were #1 hits. It just got me thinking that this box set is really not so great.

5 out of 5 stars One of the best, most varied 80s compilations available.......2003-08-19

Having both graduated high school and college in the 1980s, my husband and I became fans of 80s music for life--in fact, our recent wedding was all 80s! We own at least 10 different 80s compilation CDs, and this is definitely one of the best. The album is very diverse: it includes the expected 80s pop hits such as "Mickey" by Toni Basil and "Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina and the Waves, but it also offers some great, lesser-know tunes, namely "Mary's Prayer" by Danny Wilson and "Don't Shed a Tear" by Paul Carrack. Similarly, not only does the CD feature big 80s rock bands such as J. Geils and Steve Miller, but also there are some one-hit wonder groups, including Johnny Hates Jazz and Cutting Crew. A wonderful blend of various styles from that great decade of music.

5 out of 5 stars Great recording!.......2005-10-13

The 1980s were a big segment of rock & roll excitement, and I'm happy to have purchased this particular CD. Every cut is clear and audibly crisp.

5 out of 5 stars One of the few CD's.......2005-10-11

on which you will find Benny Mardones' Into The Night. And the long version of Charlie Dore's Pilot Of The Airwaves. The title says 80's, but the feel of these two songs is definitely late 70's. Rare find!

5 out of 5 stars Leave The Kids At Home Or At Grandma's,,,,,.......2005-09-17

Get your favorite girl in the car(truck for me), put this in the CD player and remember those long forgotten dating days. I just turned 40 and this is the stuff that legendary nights full of mischief and mistakes were made of. MAKE SOME MORE!!!! If your name makes the newspaper,,,you done a good job. I love these old compilations and this one has a definite place in my collection.

3 out of 5 stars lukewarm 80's collection.......2002-05-07

As an avid 80's fan, I thought there was some great stuff on this cd and other stuff that wasn't so great. "Maniac", "The Look of Love", "Cruel Summer" and "Into the Night" are vintage 80's and makes up for the weaker songs such as "Desire" by Andy Gibb which sounds more like 70's disco era music and "Pilot of the Airwaves" which I was not familiar with. This song sounds more like a tune from the country genre. I remember the song by Bruce Willis from the 80's and find this cd unique for including it. I have never seen it on any other compilation. The better songs on this cd however, can be found on other 80's cd compilations that would include other good 80's material that would be more worth the money.

4 out of 5 stars "Some good songs for a great price!".......2000-08-27

It almost is like this is a little soundtrack with a few songs from a few films. It contains two songs from Flashdance, "Maniac" from Michael Sembello and surprisingly, "What A Feeling" from Irene Cara. This is a surprise since this song is rare on 1980's hits collections. Another surprise was Bananarama's "Cruel Summer". This song was missing from "The Karate Kid" soundtrack, the scene where this song was most popular, while the original album it came from is out of print in the U.S., the self- tilted Bananarama. This is a fun song. Also included is "Up Where We Belong" from Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes, the hit from "An Officer and a Gentleman." Also on the album are two other great songs, "Lady In Red" from Chris DeBurgh and "Into the Night" from Benny Mardones. Great songs for a cheap price. Buy it! It's worth it.

Amazon.com

Every song was a certifiable hit back in the 1980s--the kind that MTV played incessantly (back when MTV actually played videos). Granted, superstars like Madonna, Prince, and Duran Duran are nowhere to be found, but this 15-track line-up of Brits, Yanks, and Aussies is a pretty accurate representation of an era. Twenty years have passed since then and times have changed, but the tunes haven't. Not much, at any rate. The majority of these acoustic interpretations may be slower or quieter than before, but they're hardly radical reinventions. ("No One Is to Blame," "Rebel Yell," and "These Dreams" were all recorded live.) Take Rick Springfield's "Jesse's Girl," for example. It sounds much the same as ever; the original Dr. McDreamy has simply sprinkled a little twang around the edges. The versions that deviate most include Berlin's "Metro," which speeds things up to fine effect, Tommy Tutone's "867-5309/Jenny," which sounds rougher and more rugged than the gold single, and Billy Squier's "Stroke," which makes a surprisingly successful segue from pop-metal to Delta blues. Then there are the voices, most of which (Colin Hay and Tommy Heath aside) sound as youthful as ever. On "Missing You," for instance, John Waite channels his twentysomething self with ease, while on "Our Lips Are Sealed," the Go-Go's Jane Wiedlin sounds downright girlish. Bottom line: If you liked these songs in the first place, you'll like 'em in the second. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Great pickup.......2007-07-08

OK, are we all ignoring the elephant in the room? The acoustic version of Asia's "Heat of the Moment" is easily the best version on the album. At risk of sounding melodramatic, that may be the best remake of a song that I've ever heard. Worth the purchase of the cd, that's without considering the great versions of "Your Love" and "Missin You."

5 out of 5 stars So you miss your M-TV.......2007-03-15

Remember the days when music television actually played videos? Wish it were so again? Well then you're probably in the age group this CD would most appeal to, and it does as a huge hit. I couldn't stop listening to it for hours after I finally got my hot little hands on it. I was singing along on my trip down memory lane. One word: AMAZING.

4 out of 5 stars 80s with some emotion!.......2007-01-31

Most of these tunes acquire a nice, attention-getting emotional edge in their acoustic settings. "She Blinded Me With Science" is hilarious no matter what you do to it. Enjoy!

4 out of 5 stars An 'Sripped' Walk Down Memory Lane.......2006-11-02

If you didn't like the eighties music, don't torture yourself. If you did, I believe you will have a enjoyable trip down memory lane. Personally, I have enjoyed many of the 'unplugged' approaches and most of the work on this compilation is at a minimum, not bad. It is choppy and obviously not intended to be released together, but this only makes you tolerate a few questionable songs and then you get to hear some pretty good 'revisions'. I think that Rick Springfield's Jesse's Girl ruins it for you as the first track because he did a great job of changing the song without losing the song. They include Heart and 'These Dreams' which I believe is a off ..The Road Home.. a CD that any Heart fan must have in their collection. Again, if you love eighties music, I think you will want to add this one to the collection.

4 out of 5 stars Acoustic? Hardly.......2006-09-19

"Stripped" is definitely the right word for these tracks. "Acoustic" would be incorrect in some cases, as for Thomas Dolby "acoustic" means using only one synthesizer.
As stated correctly in some reviews, many of these tracks are just live versions using fewer instruments. However, this also means that the songs are missing that heavy, multi-tracked, over-produced sound that defined 80's rock.
The tracks range from horrendous ("The Metro") to awesome ("Your Love"). Be warned - when you "strip" something down to its basics, you can see how beautiful it is, but you'll also see some obvious flaws. Without the benefit of fade-out some tracks have awkward endings ("Heat of the Moment") and others don't seem to work well in this format ("Rebel Yell"). But a great song is still a great song.
If you liked "Down Under" or "Our Lips Are Sealed" before, you'll probably like them again in a rawer form.

3 out of 5 stars I bought it for 3 songs.......2005-08-23

It's pretty good. I specifically bought it for only 3 songs - 'Rumors,' 'I can't wait,' and 'The rain.' The whole CD could've used a lot more bass in the recording. I don't know if that's a manufacturing thing or what. But I'm a "basshead" too. I have to have the beats!

4 out of 5 stars Great songs.......2005-08-03

These are some great songs on this CD. The 80's were great and this CD takes me back.

4 out of 5 stars Good, if slim, compilation of 80's R&B.......2005-03-09

I also provided a review for the 1985 CD in this series put out by Rhino back in 1995. As with that one, this CD contains some good R&B tunes from 1986. However, as is the problem with most Rhino releases, it only contains 10 tracks. They could have certainly included a few more tracks to beef it up a little. The versions here are all original recordings by the original artists. This CD is superior to the 1985 edition in that 9 of the 10 songs went to #1 on the Billboard R&B chart in 1986. Two gripes I have:
#1 The inclusion of "Shake You Down" by Gregory Abbott which seems to be on every 80's compilation CD that I own. I must have this song on 20 different CD's. If anything, why not include his other hit, "I Got the Feelin'(It's Over)".
#2 The inclusion of Nu Shooz "I Can't Wait". Yes, I know, it did hit the R&B chart. But to me, it is more of an example of 80's New Wave Dance Music than 80's R&B. There are many, many other obscure 80's R&B songs out there that I wish would have been represented here.

Other than the slim amount of music provided, it is a good CD and the songs here are good.

5 out of 5 stars "THE BEST OF THE 1980'S".......2004-06-07

THIS IS A NICE COMPILATION CD FROM THE 1980'S. I LOVE THIS CD IT CONTAINS: THE SIGNATURE HIT FROM "ORAN JUICE JONES"- THE RAIN, YOUR SMILE, DO ME BABY , TASTY LOVE-FREDDIE JACKSON, I CAN'T WAIT-NU SHOOZ,AND RUMORS-THE TIMEX EL SOCIAL CLUB. I ENJOY THIS ALBUM I LIKE COMPILATION CDS AND THIS IS A VERY NICE ONE I WOULD RECCOMEND THIS ALBUM TO ANYONE WHO LIKES CLASSIC R&B TO PURCHASE THIS ALBUM!!!!

5 out of 5 stars Ol' School party!!!.......2002-02-26

Yes, I'll admit, I was just a young pup when these songs were out, but still, they are the jams. "Shake You Down" by Gregory Abbott, who had to be the only man who ran out of words and sang..."Eeny, meeny, miney, mo...Come on girl, Let's rock the show."!!!! Melissa Morgan does a nice cover of Prince's "Do Me, Baby". Who could forget Nu Shooz's, "I Can't Wait"? Anndddd the best dis, this-relationship-is-over-so you-better-kick-rocks-song, would have to be "The Rain," by the Juice himself. Everyone remembers him telling that girl that his "first impulse was to run up on you and do a Rambo..." and "this is my world, you're just a squirrel trying to get a nut." This album has all the ol' school classics. This album is perfect if you want to just chill and reminisce on all the fun times of the good ole days.

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful Love Songs of the 80s.......2007-01-21

these 80s love songs are worth hearing again and again I strongly Recommend this CD to anyone who loves hearing love songs from the heart

5 out of 5 stars 80's power rock at its best........2007-01-19

As a fan of 80's heavy metal,I am familiar with the term,power ballad.This highly melodic,all power ballad light rock format has a great collection of songs.My favorite one on here was"Angel Eyes",but they are all good songs.This album showcases the adult contemporary side of these bands.It even includes the sappy,"Second Chance" from 38 Special.After hearing their more traditional southern based rock songs,you would'nt think they had it in them.Another track that stood out was "When I'm with you".The vocals on that song were great.The very end had some really high notes.Even Boston singers like Brad Delp and Fran Cosmo can't hit notes that high.This is a great album to own if you're a fan of 80's pop/adult contemporary music and particularly one hit wonders.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent.......2006-11-03

Excellent collaboration of the songs I enjoyed through my High School years, and still do today 20+ years later.

5 out of 5 stars 80's Greatest Rock HIts, Vol 5: From the Heart = Greatest album ever.......2005-09-02

I was a kid in the 80s with an older sister who was a teenager, so I feel in love with 80s music while tagging along with her. I found this album several years ago and fell in love with it right away. This is by far my favorite CD to listen to. If I don't know what I'm in the mood to listen to, I can ALWAYS put this in and be happy. My favorite song from the 80s is probably Angel Eyes by Jeff Healy Band. I love the way the song sounds, and have always wished to have someone sing something like that to me. But, every song on this album is great. I have never skipped any of the songs on it like I do other albums. Please buy this CD if you love 80s love songs. You will not regret it.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2005-08-10

For anyone who grew up in the 80's, you MUST own this CD. Good times.

5 out of 5 stars Images from Heaven makes this a five star.......2007-06-20

The heart felt songs of the 80's are well captured in the Just Can't Get Enough series, they did a very good job of finding some of the more obscure songs of the 80's but unfortunately they spread them out to force you to buy the set. Yet still as far as the collection is concerned this is one of the best because of Peter Godwin's Images of Heaven. Play the song for yourself and you'll see why.

4 out of 5 stars not bad.......2005-03-06

If you grew up in the Eighties most of these songs will be familiar to you. Some of these are quite good ( Only You, Oblivious, Come Back and Stay ) and hold up nicely after repeated listening. Some do not, unfortunately. And for the record, the version of Our Lips Are Sealed here ( by the Fun Boy Three ) is NOT the original, as stated by the reviewer above. It was recorded after the Go-Gos did it ( although the lead singer of FBT - Terry Hall - co-wrote the song with Jane Weidlin of the Go-Go's). Overall, a fun nostalgia trip.
