80's Not-A-Band Survivor!

Luther Vandross is gonna go out too early I already know it

Not this round it seems! Not even one point for our gay icon!

It's up to 5 now  

Of all the terrible takes I’ve ever seen here, “Prince is the worst artist of the ‘80s” has to be the absolute worst.

What Paula Abdul songs do you guys like?

I'm hoping he can get at least halfway through. But yeah, it's gonna be too early.

I can't believe you heathens are gunning for Rick Springfield right out the gate. He's got some great songs.

Who are these monsters voting for Prince?

If only there were twenty entries, those last five might have been better than Prince

Yah I debated putting her on here, but she came up in the other 80's nominees thread a couple times, so I wanted to toss her in here. I held back from doing it too many times - I really wanted to put Cher and Donna Summer on here (god can you tell I'm gay) but they have so much in the 70's, it didn't seem right. 

Also almost put Kenny Loggins on here, too, but that's like soft rock 70's even though he had hits in the 80's. Maybe Soft Rock Survivor next. 

I usually go off the grid in July, but maybe August - summer yacht rock last hurrah

Straight Up, Cold Hearted, and Opposites Attract are the Paula bops btw.

I didn't vote for him but since he played all the instruments on For You then Prince is his own band. So he should be in the band survivor and not the not band survivor. Or maybe he needs to be in his own Survivor since he is not a solo and not a band, he is something we'll never understand.
