    What band was king (or queen) of the 80's? IMO it's these guys: Guns N Roses (for obvious reasons) Van Halen (for the work with guitar) Bon Jovi (I know! I know! Not very "cool" but they're the only band from the 80's still making money that doesn't requier self humiliation through reality TV and you've gotta respect that.) And some other people I can't remember XD Wasn't 2Pac from the 80's? He's cool he makes the list anyway.

    Guns N Roses appeared at the end of the 80's, they hardly dominated the entire decade. Id say it was Michael Jackson. AC/DC were also massive. Although Queens most acclaimed albums were released in the 70's, they were still massive in the 80's. They stole the show at Live Aid, which has been voted as the best live musical performance ever.

    OHHH MEE, OHHH MYY I am sooooo confused now! RK you ask what band was King (or Queen) of the 80's? How can one put Michael Jackson and AC/DC in the same sentence? or Bon Jovi and Guns and Roses? What about Phil Collins vs Genesis? Van Halen and David Lee Roth....with or without? Madona was huge during this time as well as Paul McCartney. You have too many different types of music listed to compare with each other. What are you trying to compare kid, album sales? concert receipts? what about marketing crap like "T" shirts and Crap like that! Shit, I would vote for KISS in that department. Or do you just want to go by most radio plays? And tell me.....what da fuc about DEF LEPPARD, AEROSMITH or JOURNEY those are my three favorites of all time! I can listen to them all day long and not get tired of it. But, they are really three different types of music all performing during the same decade! Now I am really frazzeled.........think I'll go have a beer, stick a dollar in the Jukebox and kick some ass on the pool table!

    OK! I knew my list was WAY too short! I thought you'd think I would have more! Madonna, Michael Jackson, and Queen also dominated the scene. Along with AC/DC, Motley Crue, Slayer, Def Leppard, Metallica, Pantera, Twisted Sister ect ect. Dee Snider fought in court about metal and rock music being too explicit and won. The only result was having that explicit content sticker that raises sales to this day. I saw that on TV I didn't know that.
