Imagine this:

We decided to go out together for dinner in the Philippines. We found a nice restaurant, which has a special musical theme. It's 80's music. So, let's talk about 80's music. Do you know how to use jukebox? Just put in a coin and choose a song.

 

 

Dialogue

N: This looks like a good restaurant. Let's have dinner here. Okay?

 

S: Good idea.

 

H: Wow, this is an 80's theme restaurant. Do you like 80's music?

 

S: 80's music? I'm not exactly sure what 80's music is.

 

H: Well, have you ever listen to Bon Jovi, Duran Duran, Van Halen, or David Bowie?

 

S: Oh, all those artists really bring back memories. They are still pretty popular in Japan.

 

H: Look! A jukebox. When is the last time you saw a jukebox?

 

S: Haha. It's been a while. Maybe in college.

 

H: Let's play some music. Do you have any coins?

 

S: Yeah, I have a bunch of coins in my pocket.

 

H: I'll put some coins in. You choose a song. Which song from the 80's do you want to hear?

 

S: How about Jenny and Steve's song called Time Trial?

 

H: Good choice! Oh, this song brings back memories, doen't it?

 

S: It sure does. This was the music from one of my favorite movies called back in the time trial. I saw it when I was in high school. When I think of 80's, I think of this song and that movie.

 

 

 

We're talking about music from the 80s. Do you have a favorite artist or band from the 80's?

I'm not sure if they are from the 80s, but I grew up listening to a lot of Abba and Bon Jovi. 

Well, Abba is a very popular band. I think they were at the end of the 70's. They were like a disco band with the song, Dancing Queen?

Yes, that's correct.

And of course Bon Jovi was popular in the 80's.

Do you have an favorite artist from the 80's?
