[kj] So 80s

[Leigh Newton]

Fact: Africa by Toto is an awesome song.

Fact: Everything Hall and Oats did in the early to mid 80s kicks ass.

What about Toto ("I saw the rains down in Affffrica...") or Christopher 
Cross...? ("Sailing")

"Along with Michael McDonald, Toto, Kenny Loggins and, to a lesser 
degree, Hall and Oates, Cross formed the backbone of the so-called 
"Yacht Rock" genre of adult contemporary music, which captured the 
imagination of would-be sailors everywhere in the late 1970s and early 
1980s." -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Cross
