If the album came first, then the album release date. But either way, whenever it was made commercially available for purchase. So a song like Train in Vain, which was a single in February of 1980, would not be allowed since London Calling came out in December of 1979.
I second this.

Here's hoping this tournament finally settles that Debbie Gibson vs. Tiffany debate once and for all.

I need a text alert for the 80's song snake. Do they have that sort of thing?

I still have no earthly idea what I'm going to do in this tournament. I had a vague idea for the 60s and a slightly less vague idea for the 70s, but I'm stuck on the 80s. There are only two songs that I'm REALLY wanting at this point.

Id like to be able to grab a few of my favorites, but I basically don't think about what I'm going to take until the draft starts.

At minimum, the videos for the 80s tournament should be highly entertaining.

You can set email alerts for when you receive a PM. Usually you get a PM when it's your turn.
