88survivor Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 In VCS, that is. Used once or twice, but never again...not the third time ever. Here's only two I can think of: Kool and The Gang Roger and Zapp Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/268305-artist-you-were-surprised-that-werent-used-again/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamcampbell Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Michael Jackson. He SHOULD be in VCS, since it's the 80's. Damn, 80's without Michael Jackson is what? Absolutely nothing!

RDK9390 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Tru...MJ had some other 'Thriller' tracks that would have fit the Vice City theme well... The title track (Thriller), and also "Beat It"...and maybe even "Human Nature" on emotion98 Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/268305-artist-you-were-surprised-that-werent-used-again/#findComment-4072254 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash_735 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Don't Stop til You get Enough could of well been mixed into Paradise FM well. I'm surprised for the second time about the lack of Duran Duran! The Reflex would of been a great Flash FM Song whilst Planet Earth a good Wave 103 song!

88survivor Posted February 27, 2007 Author Share Posted February 27, 2007 (edited) Michael Jackson would have been perfect...damn, he had great duets in both his Thriller and Off The Wall albums. Singing with great legends like Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder, and the list goes on. Though to be under the wing of the great Quincy Jones...that's amazing. Jones ruled the 80s scene, though... Off topic: And by the way, I seen Duran Duran twice already with the original lineup in April of 2005 and August of that same year. Also, I had met JT at the Schubert Theater in May and that's awesome to meet him. He so cool to meet and so nice once you talk to him. I think I spoke to him for ten minutes and gotten his autograph.

williamcampbell Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Damn, yeah, Duran Duran would be great! I love 'em! Anyway, I would have loved it even more if they had Kate Bush on the game, but, oh well... There should be: -Michael Jackson -Prince -Kate Bush -Duran Duran -Siouxsie and the Banshees -Wang Chung -B-52's -Soft Cell -Level 42 -Stray Cats(I don't know in wich radio they would fit, but, damn, it would be awesome) Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/268305-artist-you-were-surprised-that-werent-used-again/#findComment-4072490 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymond Luxury-Yacht Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 At least Beat It should have been there. It's '84, even closer to the release of Thriller.

88survivor Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 (edited) Thriller was released in late '82. The first hit and earliest singles off the Thriller album, "Wanna Be Startin' Something" and "The Girl Is Mine", came out right at the tail end of 1982. Then came "Billie Jean" and "P.Y.T", and all came out in mid 1983. The last and best single, "Thriller", came out when I was only a few months old... I was three months when that video aired on MTV. My mother said that I was born when Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of The Heart" was first heard on the radio. One thing about that "Planet Earth" vid is that Simon's dancing is so quissential 80s to me. Now we know where Molly Ringwald got those moves from...

williamcampbell Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Oh, Peter Gabriel, David Bowie, Billy Idol and Bee Gees should be in the game too! Oh well, there's a lot of people that could be in the game..

Hrimfaxi Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I don't know about artists, but I keep feeling it would've been sweet to have heard "Water On Glass," "You spin me right round (like a record)," "Der Kommissar" and "Mexican Radio." Glass Tiger's "Thin Red Line" or Honeymoon Suite's "All along you knew" might've fared well on Emotion 98. I could be wrong about the dates of these songs, though, but I'm just sayin.

Ash_735 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Simple minds: Dont you forget about me Hmm, that would of been slightly out in the game, if it had a Simple Minds song it definetly should of been New Gold Dreams (81-82-83-84).

88survivor Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 No Canadian one hit wonders like Trans X, Promises, Lime, etc... Hey, gotta love Canadian singers and shows. They brought good music and shows like YCDTOTV, Turkey Television, etc. on Nick.
